This Saturday, I've been invited by friend and photography mentor,
Nancy Louie to attend a photo shoot in Maryland. It is being put together by a group of
iStockers from the Northeast region and it is called a "meetup". I'll fill you in on more details as I get them. All I know so far, is the theme is "Relationships". Working with the Venitskys, Sid and Shirley, yesterday at the
Smithville Mansion already got me thinking a lot about the very subject. You can find out more about them and see more quotes on relationships in today's
Spirit Art post.
