new paltz-kingston get together

**eddie** · 16-Aug-2007, 04:27

hello everyone,
i have been scanning the area for good locations not too far from the car (for alec) which have some good light, and a few interesting shots close to each other. i am thinking High Falls would be an excellent starting point. there is some old stone buildings, a lock system,a river, water falls and some interesting nature....all with in a 6-7 min walk. after that i have no plan. i iwll keep my eyes open. i was thinking maybe up on minnewaska. i think it is free to enter....mohank is nice but they have a pretty steep entrance fee (well, steep in my book. i forget everything is cheep for you city dwellers). new paltz will have some good ridge shots if the foliage is cooperating. several miles N in greene county offers some awesome landscapes. (and is close to hudson)

the only weekend that is bad for me is sept 28 weekend. i have a wedding to shoot.

keep me posted and remember my gallery show near hudson NY will be sept1-27, 2007!

Eddie,

Where is your show? How near to Hudson? Keep me posted about the meet, I'd like to try and be there.

Any idea how far that is from Vermont? I might like to meet up with some of you guys.

Hudson is about 70 miles from Bennington. Kingston's about 25 miles south of Hudson.

Sounds like a great weekend trip. I'll try to behave if you'll let me come.

**Scott Davis** · 16-Aug-2007, 06:17

I'll talk to the guys down here and see if they want to do another fall road-trip. Might be a bit less harrowing on the return trip since we can bypass the city and come up 83.

I grew up just south of New Paltz and it is a beautiful place. Wish I could make it.

Not sure if I missed this but has a date been set for the Kingston trip? Will anyone else be driving up from NYC?

Don

nope. no date yet. what is best for you? we need some one to make the first suggestion. alec and art are talking about driving up. the bus goes right past my house. it would be the 3rd stop out of NYC! not bad eh?
