Betty from My Day, My Interests Photo Blog and I are part of an online photo club called New England Photo Expeditions. It's a group made up of over 200 members (some more active than others) and once or twice a month the group organizer plans a meetup place and time. This month, one of the meetups was at Castle in the Clouds in Moultonburough, NH.
So Betty and I decided to join in and meet up with the group as well as each other for the first time! We had a really nice time (with the acception of the restaurant service, which was atrocious!) and took loads of pictures. I'd never before tried to photograph a waterfall (and my camera just cannot capture one as nicely as I'd like), but this was by far my favorite photo moment of the trip. The scenic views from the castle were magnificent, but there's just something about being in the woods that appeals to me like nothing else.
Of course, meeting Betty and her husband Bob was the biggest highlight of the day. To me, it felt as if we were old friends meeting up again after some time apart. The group itself was also very welcoming and friendly, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming meetups currently scheduled on the calender.

Glad you had a good time with Betty.. but, I can't see the pictures! :( Apparently, there are several other people who tried to download pics into their entries and AOhell wasn't making things easy. They had no pics either.
Please repost them when AOL gets the stick out their ass and lets you! lol
Love you Chelle..

I took so many waterfall pictures when I was in Yosemite the people around me thought my camera wasn't working(back when I actually had a camera ;-). These are lovely, & I am sure the company was as well. ~Mary
These are stunning.....I am so glad you were able to meet Betty. The whole outing sounds fabulous! I am very envious! Wish I could have been there. We don't have any waterfalls in this area.

Wow chelle...such wonderful shots. I always love a nice waterfall, but there's something about that second shot that is just magnificent. Blow it up...frame it, and hang it w/ pride.
Love ya,

What a beautiful place. Thanks for showing off the photos. It sounds like a great trip.
Smiles, Leigh
This looks like an incredible location...one I'd like to explore. You took some beautiful pics!
You know...I saw the webpage where you all uploaded your pictures, and saw some by "Michelle" and saw a group picture thinking that you were in it. I just wasn't 100% sure it was you till now. Guess I was right, and your pictures were wonderful. I can't believe that I missed this entry...must have been done right before I turned on my alerts.
