I tried a camera club, but it didn't work out for me. I wish it had. The club
was small, the people nice, but I never could commit to it completely. Time
was part of the problem, but I felt I didn't fit in (of course, you might argue
I didn't give it enough time for me to fit it), and, while I did see some very
nice work at the weekly meetings and competitions, overall, much of the work
didn't inspire me much. When I compare the experience to PDML, I find PDML of
greater value--a wider range of work to learn from, helpful comments, and
despite the fact we're all over the world and seldom see each other, a stronger
sense of community.
But I suspect you'll have a very different experience, Dave, so don't be put
off my experience. Cheers, Christine
