Anyone interested in meeting any time soon?

[bitsnpieces]

One goal I have is going out more to take photos and practice (one day landscape, another day night photography, another day street, etc), get to know Victoria more, and get memories of my area :)

But of course, having others always makes it more fun, specially if I'm able to learn from it too, or share.

I have a car, I'm unemployed, so I have plenty of time day and night, I'm good to meet anywhere, any time (except Sunday).

So if anyone's interested or has time any time soon, please post up :)

Where you want to meet, what time, and any plans? :)

[geoffsta]

I'll get back to you.... Not sure what I'm up to for the next few weeks. But I like a good meetup. Doesn't happen often enough

[MissionMan]

Agree. A meet up would be good.

[bitsnpieces]

Sounds good - generally speaking, I'm free most the days.

I'm meeting a friend this Thursday night (who's recently gotten into photography), so I'll ask if he doesn't mind others joining in too (if there's anyone else who can make it - I'll post up details when I get them)

But other than that, if we can organise a day/night some time, will be awesome :)

[paulheath]

where u heading Thursday night? im in Melbourne CBD if your around that area.

[bitsnpieces]

Depends on my friend, he'll know the area better than me

My number is 0402 506 665. Just give me a buz whenever - I'm also free during the day so if you need transportation or anything, I can help (I just don't too many places - only the few I've been to so far)

[geoffsta]

If you organise one for a weekend, I'll be in. Wife works all weekend, so I can be free.

[MissionMan]

Good stuff. i'll try to grace people with my presence so they can meet an award winning* photographer.

*disclaimer* By award winning I mean my wife thinks likes my photos and my mum thinks I'm a catch.

[geoffsta]

Cough, cough couch..... I think I'm gunna be sick.... :lol:

You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me :p

[geoffsta]

Well that's true..... But that's only because the superior perfectionist in me, stops them. :lol:

[bitsnpieces]

Well, we'll see when we meet together ;)

Ah! .... the only awards that have any meaning! :D

I know where you're coming from MM, and I'm constantly deluding myself with a similar philosophy
(although my wife left me and my mum's Alzheimers is getting worse :p)

Delusions are a great tool that you should never underestimate. For example, I plan to use that delusion to convince myself that the reason I haven't won an advanced comp is because my gear is substandard and I therefore need to buy new gear. Nikon 24-70 and 70-200 sub standard? Of course not, but that's the nice thing about delusions, they have no logic :) If my wife can delude herself that people at work can tell if she has worn the same shoes one month apart and she therefore needs a gazillion pairs of shoes to cater for every eventuality, I can do the same :)

[bitsnpieces]

Amen lol

Now I need to find a wife

[rellik666]

Oh I would so be in depending on when! :D

[MissionMan]

Does anyone have a camera they can bring? Might be good to get photos of everyone :p

[bitsnpieces]

I have two :D

Anyways, for those who have a set timetable already, let's post up - when are you free?

I won't know mine more clearly yet until next week because I've just applied for some work and will be starting some childcare training on Monday's and Tuesdays.

Let's organise and pick a date so we all have a goal to aim towards :)

I started a thread ... here (http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showthread.php?131843-Melb-Vic-meetup&p=1232409#post1232409)

There is always one in every crowd. Although at a circus they have many.

[bitsnpieces]

My camera phone will be good enough for the job too :P
