Folks,
For those that are interested I am going to do another Vivid Sydney shoot on 11th June and intend to be around the Circular Quay area from 6:30pm. I intend to hang around Circular Quay for about half an hour then I will be strolling to the Opera House, back past Circular Quay (Customs House etc.) and onto the International Passenger terminal on my way to Walsh Bay.

I expect that Seabee (Cindy & partner) will be joining me at some stage and would be very happy if others join me to meet our visiting Melbourne friends.

Please let me know if you want to come along to this Vivid Mini Meet by posting in this thread. I will then PM you with my mobile number so we can arrange a meeting spot on the night.

Hopefully we will have a good night with smaller crowds. :)

Hi Darey, I am a newbie from Wollongong, sounds great as I really have to start getting out more. I do photowalks in the CBD during the days (not often though). It would be great to go out with other like minded people and hopefully some our the gangs expert knowledge will rub off on me.
besides its an awesome lightshow what I have seen so far on the TV & images in Facebook.:th3:

Paul,
I am so happy Lynn and you can make the meet, I think we will have a nice time as my aim is for us to enjoy ourselves and hopefully get some good shots on the way. Mary has to work the next day but said she might come along too. I'll let you know later if she can make it.

Cindy,
The pleasure is all ours and we are looking forward to meeting you. I will PM you soon.

I might join you Greg next week. I intended to use next Monday as a wet weather option as I plan to go tonight.
If anyone is interested pm me ur number and we'll meet tonight. I'm beading in with a couple of others but won't be deciding until at least 5ish today because of weather.
Sorry to hijack your thread Greg lol x

Hope you have a good night Danielle, the crowd should be down because of the weather.
I'll be looking for your shots.

Hi Greg
I hope it clears up by Monday, I am playing up at Gosford Sunday but will be home that night. I will give you a bell during the day as to where to meet. Even though I live in the Gong I only know the stations and a few area's etc. You may have a suggestion about where to meet (its an hour train trip for me also)

Look forward to your reply

Warren (Wazza)

Warren,
It may be best if you get the train to "Circular Quay". You may even be able to get a couple of shots from the platform (MCA or Customs House) before you come down stairs to meet us.

I intend to be near the "Circular Quay" station form about 6:30pm to 7:30pm so we can arrange a meeting spot when you get there and ring me.

I too hope the weather is kind for us.

Nice, 2 Racoons or added your better half twice :)

Should be a great night just looking at the forecast, I hope somebody can lend me a Tripod as I disposed of mine (way too heavy for my old back)

Racoon (Paul) AND his better half (Lnn) were coming to the shoot. Lynn cannot make it now so just Racoon (Paul) is coming along.

Hi Darey, I should be able to make it tonight if there's room for 1 more. Hope the weather eaze up though.

Darey

Hi everyone,
I have just checked the Weather Bureau site and it looks like the rain and possible storms will continue for today and tomorrow so therefore I'm afraid that I am CANCELLING the shoot for tonight and I will be staying warm and dry at home processing some photos I took during the week. :o

For those who brave the weather and go out tonight I hope you stay safe and get some good shots.

Well I thought I was the only one there when Greg replied to my SMS.

Went there rugged up, no rain, no wind just a tad cold but I was warm. Took 100+ shots and got maybe 4 that are usable (no Tripod)
Oh well it was a good night .. I missed you swifty, thats where mobile numbers would have come inhandy.. then again I left Corrimal on the train at 4:35PM.. its now 10:30PM

Hey Warren, yea I was late in confirming to go so I didn't get anyone's numbers. Oh well, another time.
I also took probably 100 odd shots and got a hand full of keepers. Have already processed it actually but jz uploading's taking awhile. Will post some later.
Cheers
