Photowalking.org just announced a photowalking event in Simi Valley on March 15th. For more information, goto Photowalking.org. Here is a little excerpt from the announcement:

“we’re going to head to the western end of Ventura County, in Simi Valley, and shoot in and around Corriganville Park. The Santa Susana Mountains are a unique mountain range that is loaded with beautiful large rolling rock hills. I’ve shot it before, as you can see in the photo.”

Today I went to Mugu Rock in Ventura, CA. For the past week, we have had nothing but rain. I got a new lens this past week and it is the Sigma 18-200 mm OS lens. So I finaly got to use it for the first time.

I tell you what it is a nice lens.It was nice to finally to get out of the house and enjoy the out doors.

Ventura Photowalk Wrap-up

22 January, 2008 (00:14) | photowalk, photowalking, ventura | By: Leigh

Ventura’s photowalk had a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shinning with a few clouds in the sky. We had a great turn out with 28 photo walkers. We all met at the base of the Ventura Pier. We decided to take a group photo.

There were many different groups join our photowalk from Flickr, Zooomr, Betterphoto and the Ventura County Camera Club. After everyone got to know each other, we then walked down California St to the San Buenaventura City Hall. After the city hall, we walked down Main St. to the San Buenaventura Mission. We then walked down Figueroa St to Surfers Point. We ended the photo walk at the Ventura Pier for a great sunset and the start of a chilly evening with the wind kicking up and providing a little wind chill.

I would like to thank all that joined us on the Ventura Photowalk and really enjoyed talking to all.
