I'm glad you got to do this. We have occasional Flickr excursions here in Arizona, and they are always a big highlight of my life. Speaking of which, my wife and daughter leave for Utah on Tuesday, June 20, and will be gone perhaps four or five weeks, and I hope to take a lot of pictures while they are away.
Hamed Saber (72 months ago | reply)
Thank you dear Garry.
Did you pay attention that your favourite Iranian photographer (HORZION) was in our gathering too?
Meanwhile, I hope you shoot thousands of great and beautiful shots those weeks, and also hope you that won't be depressed due to lonelyness ;)
narges_kh (72 months ago | reply)
It was nice to meet all of you and thanks for such a quick uploading.
gwilmore (72 months ago | reply)
Actually, I think HORIZON is a favorite photographer for quite a few people, and deservedly so.
Don't worry about me; I'll probably be a little bored while they are gone, but I'll be okay. They make that trip every summer to escape at least part of the blisterning heat in the Phoenix area, so I am quite used to it by now.
