With week one done, we are off to a roaring start. The Facebook group kicked off it’s first week with over one thousand members! I mentioned this in one of my Facebook posts, but Jason, Jae and I created this group because we love photography, Colorado, and connecting with other photographers. Each one of us have stories of looking for connections after we first picked up a camera. Some of those stories are positive, and some not so much. We are hoping that anyone who wants to participate in the group will only have positive stories to tell!!
The support from the Colorado Photography community has been wonderful to see so far. This includes both professional and amateur photographers. And many others who just want to enjoy seeing photos of Colorado. So, thank you to everyone who has joined the group.
I want to highlight some of the top posts in this last week.
Group Member – Terrie Smith
The first top contributor I’m highlighting this week is Terrie Smith. In her introductory post, she shared this cool shot of an old truck.
