Last year was the Scott Kelby’s First Annual Worldwide Photo Walk, and I was a participant. It was in August last year, and it was a total blast! I met many people and even went on another photo walk with some of them. Then life got busy, as it often does, and the group did not get back together again….which did make me a little sad.
This year, the sneak peek email for NAPP members went out a few days before the official announcement for Scott Kelby’s Second Annual World Wide Photo Walk on Scott Kelby’s blog and I eagerly anticipated signing up for the Las Vegas walk. Even better – I signed up to be the leader of the walk. I really am very excited to meet even more people this year. Unfortunately, as a leader I am not eligible to win any of the really HUGE prizes – over $11K worth now for the world wide winner. But, I actually look at this opportunity to meet some great people and have a good time. Another unfortunate circumstance – it is the middle of July in Las Vegas – today (2 days before the walk) it is going to be 110+ outside. That is one of the down sides of living in Las Vegas.
Regardless, this is going to be a ton of fun. There is a free concert on Saturday night on the 3rd Street stage on Fremont Street – Jefferson Starship. The concert starts about two hours after the photo walk ends, giving us enough time to socialize and cool down after the official walk. The photo below is from the 2008 walk.
I am going to start scheduling a photo walk about every other month. I think it is a great opportunity for people to get together, shoot some stuff and do some chimping. Even my teenagers are into it.
