I've done some group photos before. Lots to consider. You need a good sized 
space, good light, background and a ladder or lift. Oh ya, and a bullhorn 
helps! And planning, planning, planning! It's a lot like herding cats.

Here's links to a couple of examples. I didn't set these up myself but got to 
see how it was done. And when it's done right.. ohh baby!

I'm planning on going to the Glen, still some arrangements to make. Be happy to 
help.

Cheers,
