Mt Tomah Botanical Gardens - Sunday 1st May

[NikonNellie]

Sorry, not much notice for this meet but wondered if anybody wanted to drive up to Mt Tomah Gardens next Sunday. We could make this a macro/ landscape meet - there should be lots of colour by now. I have a few things coming up on my calendar so really this is the only day that I can make it. If we leave it any later we run the risk of there being no leaves on the trees.
I would suggest that we meet up there at 10am which is the opening time of the garden.

PLEASE POST IN THIS THREAD IF YOU ARE COMING.

Hi Nellie

I should be able to make it and can probably pick someone up on the way if not too far off route.

Cheers

Peter

Me & my much better half will be there.

[NikonNellie]

Great to see you guys coming - Glenn you should be able to give us some good tips with all the macro work you have been doing.

[raccoon]

I will check with the boss tonite and let you know.

Great to have you along Bec - there will be plenty of other photo opportunities other than macro. Lots of mountain scenery and maybe some wildlife.

[raccoon]

Lyn and myself will be ok for the day...If it looks like heavy rain on the day we may pull out..

[AmPhot]

I'm hoping for a bit of mist and light rain like we got last year, makes for excellent water drops on the flowers.

Hi Nellie, I will be coming with my wife Roslyn.
We look forward to meeting you all.

[NikonNellie]

Looking forward to meeting you Phil.
Hopefully the rain will be all gone by Sunday but a bit of morning mist would be great.

Lets all meet at the shop.

[maccaroneski]

I am a definite maybe for this - let me check with the missus.

[NikonNellie]

I wondered where you had got to Tony or maybe it's me. I have been so busy lately I haven't been on the forum much. Hope you can make it.

[maccaroneski]

I've been a tad busy myself Narelle... Traveling, working etc. We,ll be there on Sunday so I can fill you in then,

[AmPhot]

Be good to catch up Tony, haven't seen you for ages, thought you might have moved to China permanently or something. :P For those who want to give macro a go but don't have a dedicated lens, I'll be bringing my Kenko extension tubes for those who want to try them out (for those who made the smart choice and bought Nikon of course).

[NikonNellie]

I'll have my extension tubes as well and willing to let anyone try them. Ooh.... we are such sharing little community.

[sunset]

Still contemplating this one! Will confirm later today but of course would love to borrow extension tubes if I do come as I still haven't bought any!

What time do you invisage we meet?
