Hi All,

My GF works for a local councillor as a Media Liason Officer, and her office has asked me to come take some photo's of an event celebrating a new dog park being opened in their ward in a couple of weekends. I've hesitantly accepted the invitation.

only thing is now, i've gone into a bit of a panic mode. I'm not sure what lenses will be most appropriate for the event, and i'm extremely worried about the brightness of the sun as the event is going to be held between 9:30am and midday. i guess fingers are crossed for a cloudy day...

My equipment will be as listed in my sig below, if anyone can give me some suggestions/advice/tips it would be greatly appreciated.

if i can manage to get some good shots, there is a distinct chance i could get published (albeit in the local rag).

thanks in advance!
