I have set up a calendar to describe photographically interesting opportunities centered in the U.S. mid-atlantic region (VA, MD, DC, PA, WV, DE and NC).
www.my.calendars.net/photoops
Anyone can read the calendar and display details about the events. However, if you would like to help load the calendar with events PM me and I will provide a userid and password.
There are multiple categories...
Animals - horse racing, dog shows, pet expos, etc
Aquatic Sports - kayaking, swimming, diving, etc
Athletics - individual and team HUMAN athletic sports or competitions
Aviation - air shows, ballooning, model airplanes, etc
Festivals and Fairs - art festivals, renaissance fairs, county/state fairs, etc
Historical - reenactments, period demonstrations, etc
Meetings - gathering of photo enthusiasts, photo club meetings, etc
Motor Sports - motorcycle, auto, speedboat racing, etc
Performing Arts - concerts, theatre, etc
Political Events - protests, marches, political speeches, etc
Recreation - non-competative events such as motorcycle rallies or sports car drive-ins
Studio Sessions - mostly aimed at modeling shoots
Velo Sports - bicycle racing of any type
If you have a suggestion for another category or a clarification of an existing one let me know.
Hopefully this will provide "one-stop shopping" for figuring out shooting opportunities that interest you and your fellow photographers in the mid-atlantic region.
