    Talking NYC Mini Gathering Pics.....

    Hi Everyone -
    We had a great time - Megan, Joe Mags, Gene & Penny Rick, & me........I didn't get many people pics......but here's a couple I did get. First ones in the subway station.......we went to supper in Astoria - a place Megan took us to. The 3rd is on the ferry - just before we started out.

    Really nice of you to post these pics Liz, but who is who I know which is penny, but only guessing with the others.

    Looking forward to seeing more of the gathering.

    By the way what camera did you take with you, was it just the G3, or did you take your DRebel as well.

    I love NY!

    We had a great time. We took the 3 hour Circle Line Ferry. It was a gorgeous day. The scenery was beautiful - but the company was the best! I know the others will have great photos to share.

    Note the PR t-shirt...

    peeking through the unzipped zipper of my fleece!

    i had a blast meeting everyone - and sadly forgot 2 things:

    1. forgot to gets joe mags's address to send my photo next fall when it's done [hehehehheh]

    2. forgot to take a group picture with the pinhole! [i actually ended up not using that camera at all.]

    Oh! Remember when we were in Times Square, and I told everyone to note the oddly dressed men ranting and I'd explain later? Well they are the guys that Brian - Kokopeli had in NYC and posted about. I *finally* found out what their organization is!

    Yep, dems da bruddahs dat...

    Wanted to kick my white arse!!!

    I still rememeber that day quite vividly.. All I did was lift my camera and the next thing I new I was being verbally assaulted from the man with the microphone and all I could see around me was more people just like him... I'll never forget that and I'll never understand the hate that one race can feel towards another just because of the color of their skin...

    Good memory Megan, and thanks for the link. I found to be an interesting read.

    Hope you all had a great time!

    Hey, Liz!

    Great to see you up here!

    I don't know if you or John have the power, but could someone sticky this thread as the Official gathering post? That way we can all post our pics underneath it.

    I love your shots, Liz. I love the fact that you took some people pics too I'll get cracking on my digital pics tonight (there are many) and hopefully get to develop my film prints later this week (there are many.)

    I just got back home, after meeting Paul, Penny and Gene this morning at B&H and picking up some digital and film stuff. I met a friend for lunch and then scooted back down the east coast - only 4 1/2 hours to get home. Contrast that with the 8 it took me to get onto Long Island Friday

    Anyhoo, more to come, thanks for posting these!

    In the subway

    I tried to explain to everyone that these guys make music just as great as a classical concert. I don't think anyone else agreed

    Here's the subway drummers and a subway scene with standersaround.

    That's it!

    All these were with the Coolpix 885 - this was my first Photogathering with a digital camera, so you get instantaneous feedback from me for once

    Looking forward to seeing some more from the Bowhays, Liz, Joe and (eventually) Megan (LOL) and hopefully within the week I'll beback with some prints to scan.

    Adios!

    Thanks for gathering!

    Cool Rick........"view first unread"

    Hi Rick -
    Thanks for posting the photos. NICE! I'm looking forward to seeing more from everyone. BTW, none of my pics of the dancer were good. I was too far away. I'd love to get a couple prints of her....hint.....hint.......

    Now, in answer to your question - to get "view first unread" - At the top of the thread "NYC Mini Gathering Pics, see "Post Reply" - right under that, click into "View First Unread." It doesn't always get you exactly in the right place, but it's close most of the time.

    I'll try to make this a sticky.....

    I must be blind.

    Is it possible that it's only an option with AOL? For the life of me, I can't see it!

    Thanks for the compliments on the pics. If only I could decide which to send...

    ... hmm... if only I had a hint... hmmm...

    LOL ;)

    You know what we forgot was to exchange mailing addresses to send each other pics

    Thanks for the response!

    Rick........Let's try it this way.........

    Click into VF
    Click into this thread - Look at the first post (mine)
    At the beginning of the first post - look at my name "Liz" at the top left of the first post
    Look above my name - keep looking up until you see "View first unread" - right below "Reply"

    Sigh.

    Liz, I just don't think it's here. Maybe if someone else more knowledgeable about these things could chime in. My box says "Post Reply" not "reply" so maybe that's an indicator that there's a difference between the AOL page and the Explorer page. That's all I can think of!

    Thanks for trying, I appreciate it. You gave excellent direction, I just think I'll never get to view uread threads

    Walterick, look just under post reply and you will see a link to "view first unread". This is when you have click on a post to read.

Do you think any of us thought to get a picture of the 4 of us -- nope! I guess we were having too much fun shooting birds, bums and botanical beauty. That's why there has got to be a "next time!"



    Pictures coming soon -- promise!

    PICS OF ME ARE A RARE SITING.....NONE ALOUD!!!!!!

    WE TOO had a fantabulous time with THE BOWHAYS .

    It was fun being you personal tripod rep at B&H

    It was fun walking through central park IDing every bird i heard or had seen

    It was great conversing with both of the BOWHAYS

    It was great powering done food.......

    BUT THAT RAIN WAS UNCALLED FOR!!!!!!!

    Hi Rick In order to see the features Liz is referring to, you need to change the view mode to Linear.

    You can do this two ways.
    1. Click on "My Account" (Top Left Bar on screen)
    Click on "Edit Options"
    Scroll down to "Thread Display" section
    Select "Linear"
    "Save Changes"
    In this mode, you lose the threaded look, but you will see the options you are looking for.

    Another way to change to Linear is.
    Click on Viewfinder
    Click on the NY post
    Look at the second bar down all the way to the right.
    Click on "Display Modes"
    Change it to "linear"

    Hope this helps.
