Just come back. I am sorry that we have left very early this morning so we did say goodbye to others.
That is a very successful and great camp. I have leant a lot from it.
First of all, thank Julie for organizing this event. Jacs (and her husband Paul and friends) for helping with the setup of the tent and the trip to the dam. Thanks Allen and Phil for their many good teachings especially their teachings to my son and my nephew. Also, I need to thank Greg for his fancy lighting for the portrait. I have never tried that kind of shooting before. Finally, I'd like to thank all the others for their kindness and the sharing of photos. I am sure this is a very sweet memory which we will all remember in our life.
Haven't have time to process the photos. I will post some when I finish the processing.
Thanks again and I am sure that we will have similar events in the future.

Hey all ... thanks again to Jules for this fantastic weekend, would have liked to have been able to stay longer, but then theres always next time .... Thanks to everyone for help making it a great fun weekend and again offering tons of help and advice . Will post some shots later.
What a great weekend. It was worth the 6 month wait.
We got to meet (Phil and Aylane) OzzieTraveller. He entertained us with a slide show of our best shots of the day and helped out where he could.
Met a lovely couple. Friends of Jacqui and Pauls.
Main thing was lots of laughs and a few days of relaxing. I even had 2 days of afternoon nanny naps. Now, that was good.
We went to some winery's. Took some shots around Tenterfield and left Deb in a dress shop. That was dangerous. She was in the "same" dress shop that we left her at and you know what we are like when it comes to taking photos. You could say she bought a few things...!!!
When it was just Ivan and I left for a couple of days...Phil was there to but we did a couple of walks...OMG, my legs, my legs. We climbed Castle Rock...right to the very top.
We were very lucky with the weather. There was only yesterday that the very light misty rain came for short spurts. We had fine weather most of the time.
Now to look through the 2 cards of photos I took. I "just" had enough battery.
Thank you for everyone that came and I think we had a good time.
May there be many more.
Right on Jules ......
As per others above - thanx again for the organising & the "go for it" smile you always seemed to have
Regards, Phil
Of all the stuff in a busy photographers kitbag, the ability to see photographically is the most important
