    Awesome. The photos posted here are incredible. Personally, learning how to make the best of a given light situation would be very helpful.

    Honestly no clue on attendance at all, hopefully a few or else its going to be a very short talk haha. All good Earl, this one is just a speaking thing, no exhibition this time.

    In other news I remember when I bought my first ever camera and showing up on here, watching the monthly image threads and getting inspired by you guys. I remember asking a ton of questions, just trying to figure this thing out. One time Ryan patiently walked me through how filters work he even built me an B&H shopping cart with what I needed. Had some awesome times out shooting with Earl and Matt in and around the mountains. Seeing all of your work taught me so much. I really appreciate this community, so many talented people on here, thanks Beyond!

    I remember those days, before you were all famous and stuff.

    Congrats man, the effort and time you've put in over the last 5 years shows crazy dedication.

    I honestly thought this was a small scale thing, like a couple dozen people. Turns out 300 or so people showed up, I misunderstood the email, probably for the best as I would have been even more nervous. Went pretty well overall I think, pretty rad experience!

    That's pretty awesome man. I really wanted to go, but I didn't find out about it until right before I posted.

    Let us know if you're doing anymore later on!

    Covered a lot of basics honestly, was geared towards the beginner to intermediate hobbyist but then took a bit of a deeper dive into composition tips and tricks and using filters to maximize opportunities in the Rockies.
