This will sneak up on us rather quickly. I am very interesting in getting together with anyone who wants to go to the Poppy Preserve in early march or early April. I am free the first 2 weekends of March and April.

I will keep an eye on the Wildflower Update, but please post your thoughts and availability here. Hope to see you!

I'll go there anytime as long as I'm available. I'll post info if I hear anything about the predicted poppy quality.

It has been another wet year, right? I'd love to get back, it was a great time last year!

Hard to believe it has been a whole 'nuther year. If the weather cooperates and the flowers are good, and if you guys plan another get-together, I'll play.

Does this mean you're finally making it back to LA?
How long are you gonna be here?

Actually, it means I'd have to scrape up a reason to get back to LA... I'll start digging, LOL.

it's a good place to test out the 5D, isn't that good enough?

Well, hmm, I've got enough miles... also gonna be in PHX for the second week of April, and possibly also mid-march.

cool, we can shoot something other than the poppies if you are around for a few days.

I'm in!

So, it's not been raining much. What does this mean to experienced poppy photographers? I am very excited about this get-together, but am worried that there won't be a good bloom this year.

The weekends I can go are:
Feb 25/26
Mar 4/5
Mar 11/12 (12th is better)
Apr 1/2
Apr 15/16
Apr 22/23
Apr 29/30

I know we won't know which is a good bloom or day to go til it gets closer, but I just wanted to put these dates out there. Of course, if another weekend is better for you, please plan to go then. I can join on any of these dates or we can just compare pix after :)

I look forward to seeing you all! It's been too long!

I'll try to get my availability dates posted soon so we can start planning. :)

I'll just play it by ear; if it seems thaty'all are settling on a date that could work, I'll look at getting my butt out there. I'd love to spend a weekend just shooting :-)
