    Re: LF shoot in CT. (end in mystic)

    Hi all.
    I have a few places in mind for Sat. There is a Mill 2 blocks from my apt. It used to be an old thread mill. Most of it has been renovated but some of the back half is still in ruin including the area around the smokestack. I have asked the property manager for access and have been granted it as long as we don't go climbing on things. Behind my apt there is a barely used rail yard that is really fun to shoot. After I was thinking if we wanted to stick with mills and rail yards and churches I have a few around the area that are of interest. The church I have in mind is stone, and (if there is strong light and just after noon), the Rosette is beautiful from the inside of the dark church. A couple of rail yards and mills as well. In the late afternoon I want to make way to Mystic and shoot an old abandoned house again before it is torn down. I have one shot of it in medium format color but none in 810. There are beaches and small shore town CT shots everywhere. I figured we could get a feel for what everyone’s interest is, than finalize plans. The quality of light also is a factor as to what we shoot. Mills and such are kind of cool in dim shaded light. Well enough of my coffee ramble. Anyone is welcome!!

    The meeting place will be the parking lot in back of my apt. The address of the bldg is 736 Main St Willimantic CT 06226. The Road that the parking lot is on is Riverside drive. Turn down Church st to get to the parking lot. Look for a bright green Beetle. I will be waiting.
    Any questions call or email me.

    Thanks, eddie for the invitation; I'd love to go, but some things requiring some real attention on my part prevent me from going out to play Saturday. Hopefully the next time isn't too far off in the future. Al
