On July 18, 2009, Scott Kelby is putting on his second Worldwide Photo Walk. Currently there are 523 photo walks around the world organized for that day. So there should be one near you. A photo walk is a event where photographers get together and walk around a area taking pictures. You don’t have to be a professional photographer to participate, it’s open to anybody from beginners to pros. It’s just a fun event to get out and take some pictures of the area. You get to meet other people, learn from each other and have fun.
I’ve signed up for a event in San Francisco Chinatown. I just so happen to be there for Canon’s Live Learning workshop.

Seven Falls is located in the Sabino Canyon Recreation Area which is part of the Coronado National Forest. It’s where water cascades down a steep rocky area comprising of seven seperate falls. There’s usually water around the area from August to May. The hike is around 8.1 miles round trip from the visitors center. I got a chance to hike this with 40 others thru my church, as we took a bunch of chinese students from the University of Arizona.
