Ah, I wish there was a way for me to send an email to all of you at once. ;)

Anyone interested in meeting up during the Boston Marathon for a group photo shoot? There are 62 of us in the group ... perhaps a handful is interested in meeting up? I'll probably be wandering out to take photos and thought I'd see if anyone else had the same idea.

UPDATE: Meeting location will be the big water fountain on Tremont Street at the Park Street Subway Station, 12noon on Monday, April 17th.

That seems fun, but since this is my first time in Boston during the marathon, I'm a little apprehensive about getting around. You think getting around will be OK? Where would you like to meet?

As a group, I think we can navigate no problem. I've wandered around the marathon with others before -- just not for any sort of semi-coordinated photo shoot endeavor. Could be fun!

How about if we meet at 12noon at the big fountain at Park Street T Station?

Thanks so much for the invite, Sooz.

I actually have to work, if you can imagine! I'm attempting to take it off, but not certain about that yet so I can't make any definite plans. If I do indeed end up with it off, I'll try to meet up. Sounds fun.

Good luck getting the day off from work, Jen. It would be great to see you. It's been a *long* time!

Sushiesque: Awesome!

Paul: Sorry you can't join us. I'm hoping we can do more of these. For a while I've also been thinking about getting us photo passes for concerts and other events that aren't entirely open to non-pros or for better access.

This sounds like a good idea. I was already thinking about heading out with the new camera and seeing what kind of marathon shots I could get, and some good company would be nice too. Count me in.

Looks like we're a group of four so far. Glad it just might work!

If you took photos at the Boston marathon, add your five favorite to the Exploit Boston pool. I also used the tag bostonmarathon2006.

I'm so sorry I missed out. I have the worst hanging on cold ever. I'm enjoying the pictures a lot though.

Hope you feel better! Maybe we can get another photo excursion organized soon. Now that it's warm!

I'd love that! Seriously. I so wanted to go today. And when it's warm, I'm always looking for places to go.
