Sydney meet - any ideas?

[NikonNellie]

It has been over a year since our last meet, so I am calling upon all you Sydney-siders to come up with some ideas and dates for a meet. Not sure if the old crowd is still around but I would love to see you all and any new members who would like to join us.

Please post your ideas here with the aim to actually attend the meet within a month. If any new members or beginner members would really like to learn more about a particular style/technique of photography we can try and organize the meet around it. Soooo...don't be bashful, place your idea in a post in this thread.

Let's see what we can come up with!

sunrise , beaches? gotta love a good early morning shoot.

Sunrise, sunset, landscape, birds of Mudgee.
Maybe you all need a weekend out of Sydney.

I know I am still new here, I'd like to meet up, if location and time are allowed.

[NikonNellie]

Great Antony - I will wait to see if we get any more responses before I organise a meet up. Do you have anything in particular you would like to shoot?

[antony]

Not really, I am easy. Just somewhere easy parking will do.

I have a Pixelstick that's been sitting in my basement unopenned for the last 8 months since it arrived from Kickstarter.
Would love to take it to a Sydney meet up and maybe try and lightpain the AP logo

Looks awesome! Might order one myself.

I'm up for a meet no ideas yet but I'm always up for a bit of light painting I'm away from the 6th to the 15th though

[NikonNellie]

I would be up for some light painting as well. We could test out red2thebones's pixelstick and I could bring some EL wire and a few other things. I am not available on the 15th either so maybe the 22nd. Any suggestions for a venue?

If you did it in autumn, it might be good to go to Mt Wilson or Mt Tomah or both. Just a thought.

[red2thebones]

I'd say somewhere open, with distant lights in the background, like North or South Head, looking back towards the CBD. There's also a slight chance for some sunset shots.... Was going to suggest somewhere near the big hanger, but I guess it's been done more than a couple of times?

[antony]

I think 14th/15th March is a bit too close, is 21st/22nd March still on the drawing board?

[NikonNellie]

Something has come up for me on the 21st/22nd weekend now so I won't be able to make it. Let's aim for the 29th. North/South Head are also a bit far for me driving wise. Middle Head would be better for me. Any other suggestions?

[sunset]

Hello - remember me? Probably not available on 29th at the moment due a few other commitments during the day. Will keep you posted though.

[ktoopi]

I'm not available the 28th and 29th as daughter has state titles in opti racing so we will be away!

Just got back from hiking Maria island in Tasmania today Oh and just realised not available next weekend either as best friend from WA is staying the weekend so maybe don't worry about me unless we decide next month is better!!

[NikonNellie]

I'm happy to leave it until the school holidays. Life is so busy these days.....and I don't have any kids at home!

[Mr Felix]

The vivid light festival is coming up again soon.

[antony]

22 May to 6 June 2015. Won't be long.

[kevin301]

I'm flying in to Sydney from May 22-26 specifically for Vivid 2015

Just wondering if there are any plans for organized activity during that period. Would make my best effort to join in
