This past weekend, I took part in Scott Kelby’s Worldwide Photowalk. This is an annual event where groups are formed all around the world to walk and take photo’s on the same two days. The event was held October 1-2, 2011. The local group here in Tupelo got together on October 1st, for a Saturday morning walk around the downtown area. Including myself, there were eight people there. I didn’t know anyone before the walk, and they all seemed to know each other. This left me as sort of an outsider, but everyone was nice and inclusive.

This was not really a seminar or class type of setting, but more of a social event. The majority of the participants were members of a local photography club, which I may join since meeting them. I’m always interested in improving, so I think that may be a good way to not only improve, but get to know other people with similar interests. One lady I met does web design for a living, so definitely some interesting contacts. Most of the group were meeting for lunch after the walk, but I had to decline due to another commitment(a.k.a. cub scouts). The winning shot out of the group wins the latest Scott Kelby book. Although I’m quite certain I don’t have a winner here, here are 9 of the 85 or so pictures I took…
