I hope that's not BBJ there, because I can't afford to give myself a first prize. :wink:

Thank goodness. I thought I may have misunderstood the object of the game. With that barrier in place, I can't see anybody's member.

 BTW: To the far right is aussichef, and just in behind is Andrew, nephew of BBJ, a budding photographer who was using assuichef D50 and Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8. At that stage, some of us were scattered to various vantage points to get clearer shots.

The following people turned out to the Mini Meet: BBJ, aussichef, stadl, DanielA, Big V and myself.

Edit: and beetleboy (The Paparazzi) :lol:

BBJ and Fozzie is correct. Sorry Fozzie, you're not eligible for this competition, maybe next round!

I thought BBJ had spotted me for a second cos he was pointing his bazooka directly at me but then realised he was chimping!

You wouldn't have noticed me cos I had a stealth camera in hand (Fuji P&S) and was on the opposite side of the track near the start of the race.

I thought I spotted Big V - was he wearing a red t-shirt?

I was actually keeping an eye out for Ronnie but it was hard to miss you guys all wandering along together :D

Ah fair enough then, I was only in three spots and they were at the finish, inside the hairpin and outside the hairpin; missed the rare chance to see you guys in the flesh.

That is my daughter and I try not to stand to close to the nikon users, dont want the canon colours being infected by the nikon colours :) When you were taking this shot, I was at the corner looking back. Daniel is just behind Warren, you can see his white hat.
I am going to have a look through the pics from last night because I may have one of you!!!

go on own up if you are there :)

I reckon you might Big V! I was wearing a dark green short sleeved shirt with scribbly/random white writing on it (mostly on the top half).

Feel free to post it here if you do have one! :D
