We had a visit from Wendell yesterday scouting locations for a shoot.



He brought his lovely assistant with him



We turned on a typical Queensland day for him.









But this little fella slept right through it.

Oneputt - Thank you for sharing. I see that you survived, anything broken

Fozzie actually no! It was a pleasure to spend some time with him. His enthusiasm is contagious.

That koala is so cute! I assume that was taken at Noosa. Hope the weather is still like that in a week. Nice pics John.

As long as you didn't catch anything else John (like wendell's destructo disease)

Hope you guys had a good time Oneputt. Di you bring Wendell up the range to show him some of the less beachy locations?

Craig

Craig he didn't want trees. He was after rocks and beaches.

Sounds like a great day together John. I think we are all jealous. Off to longreach this next weekend and through to Easter John and you know what I'll be chasing apart from western sunsets and some historic sites. Now if you were still that way inclined you could have joined me out there Hell that just sounded a little 'Broke Back Mountainish' but you know what I mean John
cheers

Just shows how careful you have to be with your choice of words Marco Hope that you have a good trip. By the look of the chart it should still be fairly warm out there.

Hi Kevin and John thankyou very much for your hospitality and help
you two champions are so Nice, it's almost insane
I just rocked up and i got a lovely bed, conversation food, drink and a overland driver for a day
you people should be polished in gold

thanks again

John i don't know who my assistant was in the 2nd pic but nice one

It was a very productive day and at the end i loved Noosa the water was aqua in colour lots of shallow pools around the rocky areas and the rocks were just gorgeous, i nearly slipped over a few times on the rocks with the d2x in hand but i think someone was watching form above so i ended coming back home with nothing broken - surprise!

can't wait for the actual shoot in May

I owe you guys big time.

So sounds like you have clearly decided on specific location for your next shoot Wendell Any details?
cheers

You get much better results when you drop a camera on rocks.

Just for testing purposes, you understand.

And it's truly great for a D2X when you place it, face down without a lens mounted, in the sand.

John, I can see why you live there.

Wendell, I vote we give you at least one day off from commenting on your gear testing

I thought you might pick that day after I posted For two reasons, one being that Wendell wasn't posting yesterday

Got it in one.

Er, two.

Er, one.

Er....

You know what I mean, Glen.

Wendell
Dropping a D2x out of a tree is a better test of sturdyness?? than falling on the rocks. You can see the beaches from up here as well, but you do need a long lens.
Craig

Starts sounding like a broken record...
Oneputt, I am sure you enjoyed Wendell's enthusiasm and thank you for the nice pictures.
Cheers,
Gerard

Looks like good fun.

What are you shooting in May, Wendellt?
