Evenings at Village Gate second floor take a dimly lit and somewhat spooky air. Though that may not be so conducive to shopping, the space makes a good locale with unusual interior spaces for creative lighting and angles. In tribute to a wonderful blog, Strobist, we meet to shoot and experiment with off-camera lighting. Like past Flickr Rochester meets, the ideal is collaborative. Bring what you can bring. Do what you can to help. Most of use are here to learn and have fun.
For food and refreshments, downstairs in the atrium are Bodhi's, California Rollin', Lento, and the new Gate House Cafe. Some of us plan to get dinner here at 6:30p and then catch up with everyone else. Across the courtyard also are Tex-Mex and pizza.

Most people attending havent signed in here. Hmm. We have about 9 photographers total so far. Hopefully a few more friends are coming as models.

Just want to second the awesomeness of Gate House :) I've tried the burgers and the pizza, and they're both really good. I think someone had mentioned Bodhi's in the original discussion thread, but I'd definitely be up for Gate House if anyone would rather go there.

I almost forgot about the Gate House. Thanks for the reminders, and count me in for dinner.

I vote we meet at Gate house. I was there last night and saw Bodhi really didn't have the space to accommodate us if we're standing around having a beer waiting for peeps to show. Ten again, its not like its hard to find us upstairs either : ) In case of late comers.

The City published a review of Gate House today. It's making me hungry!

Hi All, on behalf of myself and those who also use Upcoming, webcalendars, or find it easier to read one short meeting message rather than several entire threads, thanks for taking the effort to reply. It sure makes getting headcounts and changing fluctuating event details easier.
Now after our Flickr Rochester March '08 Strobist meet, be sure to tag your photos upcoming:event=450723. See “Add your own…” beside these comments here. Update: now “Add more…”
