Sydney meet at darling harbour - saturday, 30th march

[NikonNellie]

I just wanted to post up the final details of our planned Darling Harbour Meet on SATURDAY, 30TH MARCH.

We will be meeting outside of the IMAX Theatre at 5PM then head off to have some dinner at one of the local restaurants. After dinner we will be walking around the Darling Harbour area where there should be photo opportunites of architecture, street photography, the Hoopla Festival and who knows what else.

Those members who have indicated that they are coming is as follows:

Raccoon +1, peterb666 +1, Darey, Duggo, ktoopi, ? sunset, judybee, ? Mr Felix, twix, fjoe45 +1 and myself. If I have missed you or you find that you now have that weekend available and would like to join us, then please post your intentions in this thread.

Looking forward to seeing you all. Don't forget to wear comfy shoes. :D

[peterb666]

Hi NikonNellie,

Finally got my roster and you have an outing one of my days off. Spoke to the wife if she would like to go and she said yes. So we would like to attend also.

[Darey]

Looking forward to seeing you all again.

[NikonNellie]

Glad that you and your wife can make it Alan - the more the merrier. :)

[raccoon]

count the boss and myself in..

[sunset]

Yes I'll be there with G&D in tow too. look forward to it :D

[Mr Felix]

Yikes!

I just realised.... That is the Easter weekend yeah.

I am 99% tempted to be going to Temora - there is a fly in there which happens every year.

Ok, I go Friday and come back Sat (or maybe do the round trip on Sat), but....
That means getting back to Wollongong, packing up, getting back home, getting the camera gear and getting into the city by......

17:00.

I don't like the chances of that happening.

I won't say which way I am going yet - as in life: Things change for reasons beyond our control - and I don't like making promises to things I can't keep.

[mechawombat]

Since it is at Darling Harbour I wont attend as I shoot there weekly I will be out at Sydney Motorsport Park all day though watch and shooting the Drift action.

[Darey]

Looks like I'll have to behave myself, the boss is saying she might come with us for the walk and chat. :cool:

In case you're interested I got an e-mail from Wilson Parking and they have a promotion on over the Easter weekend with some car parks only $5 for any length of stay. This includes 'Darling Park' at 201 Sussex Street near Darling Harbour but you have to use their 'book a bay' facility on-line. We've used it before and although it doesn't actually book an exact bay you are guaranteed to get in.

Hope this helps those who are driving in.

[Duggo]

thanks for the tip..

[Miss Molly]

I would love to come, but we are having family over for Easter. I do hope there will be another meet up soon...

[NikonNellie]

That's a shame Miss Molly. Hpoefully we will see you on the next meet. We tend to have them on an average of one every couple of months. :)

[triptych]

thanks for the tip, Ness. I've booked the Darling Park car park. $5.00 what a bargain ...

A friend of mine, Linda, who came on a couple of AP shoots about a year ago will be coming.

But I have some nice images.

Shall down scale them and include them here soon.

[ktoopi]

Sounds like everyone had a great time.......Bummer I had to get sick right now I was looking forward to catching up with everyone....and taking a few pics! Still feeling like a misery on legs but not as bad as yesterday so things are looking up:D The Easter Bunny came to our hpuse last night and just as well he hid lots of eggs around the yard as the possums had a feast!!! The 'Easter Bunny' was feeling too sick to get up early in the morning to hide the eggs:eek:
Looking forward to seeing everyones pics

[Mr Felix]

Where may I upload a couple of my shots?

[NikonNellie]

If you want them critiqued Andrew then post them in the Night Photography forum , otherwise put them in the Non Critique forum.

[Mr Felix]

Last time - middle head - people were putting the pics in a common thread I remember.

I was not wanting to go off on a tangent.
