December Meeting

[Ramer]

Charlie, Thanks for hosting a great party I mean "meeting". I wish we could have stayed longer that was our plan until Saturday morning(cant count on some family members).

It was good to see everyone and to meet a few folks from Spokane. My two frags look good this am. Thanks a bunch!!

[charlie]

Thanks to Joanne and Aaron and Michael and Angie for making the trek from Spokane!!!!!

Must have been a good time, I feel like **** this morning

Joanne and Aaron just left the house with some frags from the swap, I hope they do well in her tank. Devon is also headed home with a pretty good haul, I hope he posts some pics, along with Joanne. She may post her stuff on the Spokane site so check there also.

Hey, that was a great meeting! Thanks for hosting, Charlie. Food was great and the hot buttered rum hit the spot. It was great to see everyone again and nice to have the Spokane area reefers make the trip over. Charlie's tank was looking fabulous and yes, I got some great shots that I'll post for everyone to see. My tank looks a little less than exciting after viewing these beauties.

I want a macro lens now!! Thanks so much Michael for letting me borrow your lenses, and for all of the great photo tips! I'm having about as much fun with the phototgraphy as the aquarium. (Obviously I've been distracted with something as I haven't been on the forums much. Yup, I got a new camera.)

Enjoy the photos.

Kim

[charlie]

You can't stop there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kamar]

Yeah, I've got more to upload, but I'm getting a message that I'm maxed out on space. I found where I can manage attachments and tried to clear out some space, but I managed to delete one of the photos posted. How do you upload so many photos without running out of space? The photos are averaging about 850kb each - too big, maybe?

[charlie]

Most of mine I try to get at around 200-250kb, Kim, usually around 1200x800. I am lucky, I have unlimited space because I am a moderator.

Pick the ones you want to upload and e-mail them to me if you want, and I will save them and put them up for you. If you do that, resize them to something like 1600x? or there abouts.

[kamar]

Ok, I'll work on that.

[charlie]

I can't wait, you were down there a long time, and every time I looked in, you were in there with the top down box, these should be interesting.

[Parrothead]

OK, this is horribly unfair, ya'all have all the fun up there in the great white north, we down here in Jax, gotta hope for a good score to be able to even post pics

As a spirit member, glad ya'all had fun and Merry Christmas to all

[DevonM]

I had a great time! Good to see everyone. I will try to get some pictures up soon. Nice photos Kim!

[kamar]

Ok, sorry about that Charlie. Did you pass out yet from holding your breath?? Here are the photos with a link to my Picasa web album:

You and that Canon are getting along just fine Kim, those are some nice shots!!!!

Like that Emperor, don't you.

[kamar]

Yes, you can tell, eh? Thanks - I had some great subject matter to work with.

[charlie]

Kinda glad the emperor was so photogenic!!!!

[Parrothead]

He's always a ham for the camera

Nice pictures Kim. As usual good to see everyone and had a great time. Charlie thanks for hosting the meeting & thanks for that AWSOME blue stylo, looks great in my tank. And thanks Joanne for the green slimmer and it was nice to meet you.

Charlie, We had a wonderful time visiting and viewing your amazing tank again!!! I'm sorry we were unable to stay for very long. We finally got home late last night. Food was great, company was even better!! Looks like the frag swap was a success, and I hope the frags didn't get too dizzy!! Kim, wonderful pictures!!! Thanks again!!!

[charlie]

Michael, is your tank ready for frags again, I might have to take a January trip.

[tehfeer]

Sounds like you guys had a great time! Sorry I missed it I am getting ready to buy a house so I am trying to save every penny i can! Hopefully I will be able to make it to the next meeting!
