Portland and Seattle are practically neighbors, so I'm sure we'll meet sooner or later, and I look forward to it. Talking about photographs to photographers is a lot different than talking about photos to non-photographers. I'm sure your audience will make you very comfortable, but I understand your nervousness. Just remind yourself you were invited, and that can only mean there's appreciation, and it's well earned, in my opinion.

Your best moral support is your work. It is phenomenal.

+1. I just received Austin's book. It's superb.
Re: Austin Granger at the Portland Photographer's Forum
Austin's work is exceptional, and it speaks for itself. We'll have the additional privilege of hearing the stories behind the pictures.
As Jan Pedersen said, relax, we are a friendly bunch. Most of us are too old to catch you very easily.
As friend of mine's lawyer said as they entered a federal courtroom for his bankruptcy hearing, "Relax, they can't eat you." :D

Beer before might make it more interesting...
Re: Austin Granger at the Portland Photographer's Forum
Hope I can make it, but I'm beginning to think I suffer from anthropophobia these days. Going out in public and seeing other people? Yikes! (This is a reflection on me and not anyone else.) Austin's work is fantastic and deserves to be supported. We'll see...

jcoldslabs, you should try to make it. PPF meetings are the cure for the common phobias, dropsy, ague, catarrh, lumbago and gout.
