The first of our regular 2x2 Photo Meets (held the second Saturday of every second month) will be on Saturday 11th October (that's the weekend after the October long weekend). We'll be having a leisurely stroll through Cremorne Reserve from Cremorne Point to Mosman. You can meet us at Circular Quay at 9:45am to catch the ferry to Cremorne Point Wharf, or meet us at Cremorne Point Wharf at 10:00 am. From there we'll take a walk that meanders through the Lex and Ruby Graham Gardens (should be plenty of beautiful spring blossoms to see). We'll then continue along the edge of Mosman Bay where there should be plenty of local wildlife as well as views of Mosman Bay itself from various vantage points. We'll finish at Mosman where we'll have a casual lunch before catching a ferry home. It's a nice easy walk and will be a great day out both photographically and socially. For more details of the walk see THIS PDF

Please indicate your interest below.

Peter,

I'm interested in this one, it's been too long since the last time I've been in Sydney.

thanks,

André

I'll put my hand up for the this one. I'm a little tentative right now, but that's cause it's a few weeks away. Footy has finished here and I'm free more weekends so i should be good to go!

by **Mr Darcy** on Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:52 am

PJS and I are interested, but not committing ATM as we are not thinking beyond a certain wedding on the 26th Sept
(Well we hope its certain. We'll be royally P.O'd if it doesn't go ahead

)

by **aim54x** on Tue Sep 16, 2008 1:05 pm

maybe! not certain though.

by **whitey** on Tue Sep 23, 2008 11:06 pm

Aww, I will be 100K into a 150k charity walk. Maybe next time.

by **Reschsmooth** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 9:47 am

First game of the season, so unfortunately I will be a no-show, yet again!

by **Geoff** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 10:12 am

I/we are a tentative yes. Depends how much more wedding prep we have.

by **Sandy Feet** on Thu Sep 25, 2008 1:59 pm

Depending on rosters I would love to join this walk, its about time I got out and used the camera again.

Tentative Yes

Cheers
Rod

by **surenj** on Thu Oct 02, 2008 5:20 am

Dammit..rostered on AGAIN! currently trying to swap...

by **ATJ** on Thu Oct 02, 2008 6:10 am

I was planning to come but have just found out that I have to attend a 11:30pm-8:30am meeting on both Thursday and Friday night.

by **Sandy Feet** on Thu Oct 02, 2008 9:12 am

I have requested the day off but haven't seen the roster yet if i'm off i'm there

Cheers
Rod

by **trotkiller** on Fri Oct 03, 2008 6:42 pm

I will try to attend

I have a wedding to go to at 1:30 so I won't be able to stay too long

by **Glen** on Fri Oct 03, 2008 6:55 pm

Looking forward to this Stubbsy

by **Mr Darcy** on Fri Oct 03, 2008 7:49 pm

Wedding over.
Pam and I would love to come. We will probably park at Mosman and walk or ferry to Cremorne.
It will depend, however on Pam getting over her flu, and me not catching it. I am beginning to worry though, but not as much as P. She knows what I am like when I am unwell. :cry:

by **aim54x** on Tue Oct 07, 2008 12:06 pm

Hey guys, I am an exec at the USYD's photographic society (PhotoSoc) and we have started to organise regular outings, and the next one will fall on the 11th of this month. I was just wondering, since a lot of our regulars are away, would it be welcome if I just bring them along to this 2x2 event?

I will be coming to this 2x2 event as I would love to meet some of you guys in person, and I have a feeling that this weeks PhotoSoc minimeet will not be heavily attended (not many active members atm).

Cheers

by **radar** on Tue Oct 07, 2008 12:20 pm

Sorry, I won't be able to make it for this weekend :cry:

Have fun,

André

by **Alpha_7** on Tue Oct 07, 2008 2:35 pm

Please check the trains, if you were planning on using them as some lines (including the South Coast line are closed for track work).

by **Matt. K** on Wed Oct 08, 2008 5:59 pm

I will be coming and bringing my bag carrier. I may also be bringing a couple of non-members who are interested as an introduction to our activities.
It's going to be a great day!

No worries bringing non members along - everyone is welcome. It will be great to catch up with you.

by **stubbsy** on Thu Oct 09, 2008 9:31 pm

The forecast for Saturday looks promising (Chance of a shower, top of 24 as I type this on Friday morning) so we should have a great day.

If joining us at Circular Quay please be at the terminal by 9:40 am in time for the 9:55am ferry. If meeting us at Cremorne it's Cremorne Point Wharf at 10:05 where I'll have some additional info and some news for you (can't say what until then). We'll then be walking to Mosman and will pass Old Cremorne Wharf on the way so if we are worn out we can catch the ferry from there.

So far I have the following:

Stubbsy
Mr Darcy
PJS
aim54x + friends
Matt K & bag carrier + friends
Glen
Sirhc55

Possibles:
Phoenix
Sandy Feet
trotkiller
nnnnsic

For those whose contact details I lack please PM and we can exchange mobile numbers should you need to get in touch.

by **sirhc55** on Fri Oct 10, 2008 9:26 am

You can add me to the list Peter

by **Glen** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 3:15 pm

A big thank you to Peter for organising this walk, a tremendous time had by all walking through a beautiful spot. The company, weather and location were excellent. There was a surprise challenge on in which everyone was given a different theme, which added to the interest for the day.

A few images straight after the event:

Some galah we saw on a table, Matt tried unsuccessfully to shoo it away

My theme was reflections - so here is a reflective girl

Roots

Definitely had a great day and looking forward to the next event.

by **Sandy Feet** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 3:40 pm

Unfortunatly I was unable to make the walk today, hope you al had a wonderful time and I hope to catch up with you all next time

Cheers
Rod

by **Geoff** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 5:46 pm

Looks like it was an awesome day guys, sorry we were unable to make it.

by **phoenix** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 6:59 pm

Yeah I'm a bit bummed i couldn't make it either! Damn i really wanted to. I got a bit lazy over the last few days and just needed some R&R, and ended up with a heap of photo work i'd forgotten to do.

Hope it was a good walk!

by **surenj** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 7:01 pm

Sounded like fun! I am sitting at work currently.. Hope I can make it to the Chrissy BBQ

by **aim54x** on Sat Oct 11, 2008 10:20 pm

Just adding my pics from the day!

Massive thank you for organising the day (and letting me try your 28-70)

My take on a branch

Petal

One of my faves from the day...

by **Mr Darcy** on Sun Oct 12, 2008 4:14 pm

Thanks Stubbsy for organising this walk. A great day out, and the themed competition was a great surprise. (Made even better by winning

)
And thank you Glen for donating the prize. (Wolf Eyes Angel A) I tried the torch out last night. A great tight beam, but with enough spill to make it useful for walking in the bush. Not quite as bright as my 6DMaglite, but not far off it, and a whole lot smaller. Perfect for the backpack.

I am going through photos ATM. Will post a few when I get them sorted.

by **Nnnnsic** on Mon Oct 13, 2008 12:34 am

Here's a few of mine from the gang that day...

by **Glen** on Mon Oct 13, 2008 10:12 am

Cameron, really like your last image of the flower, really something. Leigh, great portrait of Matt, Philo looks perfect with the flower and the 'in action' portrait of Cameron.
