Christmas in Adelaide

Postby DebT on Tue Oct 28, 2008 4:16 pm

Hi all ...yes know it seems early but 11 days before the Pagent and only 58 sleeps before the fat man slips down the Chimney (hopefully carrying something long and white) thought it a good time to do a quick poll re a Christmas get together / function / photo meet ??

Any hints or preferencs (suitable for publication) ..
I'm suggesting one of the following to get the ball rolling with very guestimate dates
Option 1 - Dinner somewhere in town one night (12th or 13th Dec), then photoshoot of Christmas lights
Option 2 - Photo meet with a byo cheese & greens picnic (perhaps zoo or botanic gardens) (13th 14th Dec)

Have to start somewhere so register your interest/attendance/ideas
Deb T

Im up for a christmas zoo shoot :)
Lots of goodies really, lets just say my lenses stretch from 10mm to 500mm with plenty of light at 5fps ;)

Hi, the zoo / botanic gardens sounds good to me.

Deb T - I would prefer option 2, because it involves my second home. I am good for either the 13 or 14th December, as 'RDO' on the 15th December, 2008 :)

Just that I find Xmas functions at Cafe's, you get squeezed in, poor service, warm not hot food, and they charge like wounded Bull's.

I would be possibly interested in a meet on the 13th or 14 depending on what we are up to. We are moving to Canada on the 30th so might be flat out, might be organised but I doubt it!

Hi all.

I'm new here and a proud owner of a D80 with 18-55 VR and 55-200VR.

I'd like to meet up, but I think I have other things on the 13th / 14th!

Currently saving up for a 70-300 APO MACRO lens or a f2.8 zoom lens before going to KI for NYE.... anyone know anyone selling one cheap?

Thanks

Hi Andrew,
Welcome to the forum. Hope you get to meet up with some people. It's a busy time of year though!
