Heading out to this tomorrow with camera in hand:

Highlights will be the Classic Car Show and the Show Jumping.

It's been quite a number of weeks (months?) since I've had the opportunity to do some photography!

I managed to get there. It was excellent and quite a large fair for a local event. Lots of old cars.

We didn't get there until a little later, unfortunately. My wife's niece called just as we were headed out, so we had to take a detour to pick her up. I would've liked to have a go at taking some photos of the cars earlier on.

Funnily enough I saw someone taking photos later on in the day who looked a little like you; knowing you frequent the general area I actually thought it may be you for a second but then I noticed the camera wasn't a DSLR...

Did you get to see the jousting? I thought it may have been a fantastic photo opportunity, but I'm afraid I really didn't like any of the photos I took.

I was quite disappointed by my efforts all-round today, actually. Guess it's just been too long since I picked up the camera. Regardless, I'll see if I can muster up one or two favourites and post them on AP...

Did you take any shots? Would like to see a couple!

Ha ha - was probably me. I had my Olympus E-P3 and just the 12mm lens on board. There were not too many people with cameras around.

I saw the people doing the dress up stuff. I am not sure if they were just finishing or getting ready to start. I left around 2pm.

People shots (OK a 12mm lens is not ideal for this sort of thing even with a 2x crop) (http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showthread.php?91871-Lugarno-Lions-Spring-Festival-2011)

Some car shots (http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showthread.php?91866-Red-Cars)

There are a couple more car shots in my 52 and the rest are on flickr.
