Melbourne members similar meet must be organised at least on a quartely or every six months. Looks like we Melbournians are blown away into deep like the last night stormy weather

I still have no idea if Dad will be coming or not. I'm going to assume not at this time... I know I'm not... I've got a picnic at Nielsen Park to go to with some artists from my Uni.

Tommo, welcome! you can come for the outdoor mini meet not the Photoshop session cos it's full.

Posted: **Thu Feb 03, 2005 6:18 pm**

Tommo
Come meet the guys and drool over the lenses.

Posted: **Thu Feb 03, 2005 6:33 pm**

I might pop along to the mini-meet for a chat and let you photoshoppers do your stuff indoors.

Why not Steve! and you may run a demo Pano shoot outdoor!

Posted: **Thu Feb 03, 2005 6:47 pm**

Great idea.

We could do a 360 deg pano of your backgarden, the most photographed backgarden in Australia methinks

We are very fortunate that you have lot's of nice plants to photograph

Posted: **Thu Feb 03, 2005 6:52 pm**

As well as lots of nice tripods, statues, and people who spend far too much money on nice little things that take pictures of other nice little things.

Yes, I'm with you, we can run a trial and do a proper workshop outdoor later. BTW, I ordered the Omni Pano package from RRS, should be here next week.

Despite my multiple posts saying that I'd be attending this outdoor meet, I can't make it.

One day I will be able to... one day

Probably better to not aggravate the lens lust

Posted: **Fri Feb 04, 2005 10:52 am**

I promise, promise, promise that I will be there Birdy.

I know I have said I would be at other meets and not gotten there, but my husband is rather partial to his.....shall we say, family jewels....and will not allow anything to stop me going this time. :twisted:

See you all there...

Cheers
Deb

I'll be there tomorrow.. I've PM'd you for your address, birddog...

Regards,
Tommo.

Posted: **Fri Feb 04, 2005 6:58 pm**

It's a given that I'll be there, playing with all the cool toys I can't afford.
MJ if you're coming, I'll bring the thing for you too...

Posted: **Fri Feb 04, 2005 7:09 pm**

Yep... planning to be there... and time running out for plans to get changed on me :wink:

IF Birddog has $Minimeet THEN Onyx == There.

When he come back he'll speak difference language and heap of toys in his bag. :shock:

If 'gstark' present then Nnnnsic = there.
ELSE
If Nnnnsic get(license) AND get(car) from 'gstark' = there too.

There's a point to all of this, I failed programming.

You're missing a bit of logic... or rather, weekend logic.

IF $gstark present THEN $Nnnnsic == THERE
ELSE
IF $Nnnnsic get(license) AND get(car) fromm $gstark == THERE
ELSE
IF $Nnnnsic == sleeping OR $Nnnnsic == drunk THEN $gstark == THERE

END

THEN $$$$$hip-pocket == $hip-pocket

Birddog... Not sure if i'll be able to yet.. but I MAY come by for the outdoor meet and also get that Microtrekker if you've still got it.

I'm not sure If i'll make it though.. I've got another engagement to go to as well, but I might be able to fit in some time to meet others etc.
