[bne] FYI state champs. ADDED PICS

Postby xerubus on Wed Jul 12, 2006 10:55 pm

Just a heads up if anyone is looking for something to shoot over the next couple of days.

2006 Queensland Firefighter Championship BRIBIE ISLAND
- Thursday 13th, Friday 14th and Saturday 15th July

Friday is when the opening ceremony is on (0815) and the games begin just after this for two days.

If anyone pops along for a shot or two, holla out and say hi.

cheers

apart from the fact that i'm still recovering from quite a bit of over indulgence... it went very very well. just over 1100 raw images to process now.. so give me a little while before I post them :)

I guess firefighters drink as hard as photographers eh... so mix the two and it's near lethal.
