How about the following;

Fitzroy Gardens
Meet at The Old Band Stand (http://kayo8.files.wordpress.com/2008/1 ... ardens.gif)
Saturday 30 January
Meet 1030am
You can get the train to Jolimont station just across the street, or park in Clarendon or Landsdowne Streets.
I have arranged for a number of models to come and pose for portraits in the gardens.

Bring:
your camera
lunch (or there is a kiosk there)
something reflective (zip/disc reflectors is simple white card etc)
an off camera flash if you have one.
your favourite joke as to why the Saints will need to wait another 66 years...

Hello,
Picking up from our postponed workshop in sept, is anyone interested to help organise a workshop and / or meet of somekind in Jan?

How about Saturday Jan 30.

Is there a preference for indoor or outdoor?

day or night?

Subject matter and styling?

Location, venue, or public?

Perhaps we keep with the speedlight, and reflectors and diffusors tools?

Would someone like to step forwad to arrange talent? A stylist etc?

All with a view to keep costs to minimal (ie less than $20 pp)



Register your interest to participate too...

Now Greg, what kind of lighting conditions should we expect?

G'day Oz, I'm back in town, and the 30th is OK for us at the moment.

Subject - any
where - any

Even if only for coffee and a few shots of something.

Open for any ideas, and happy to help out with any organising.

Things are looking good for me at this stage Bruce - fingers crossed for no lighting and that I dont get any calls tonight

[photograham]

[DaveB]

Well we're here but no Bruce and no models. Hope you're OK Bruce!

We've got me, pucara, rflower, paulmac & kids...

[Oz_Beachside]

hi all, sorry I was unable to make it to the meet, had some troubles.

I didnt think anyone was organising models, did some of you pose for portraits, and practise with reflectors and speedlights? posting results?

apologies to have missed you.

[DaveB]

We were just acting on the assumption that you were bringing the models you said you had arranged (see above).

But we got on fine! There were flashes, reflectors, etc. Paul's kids were good sports about being photographed (and photographers were also photographed). I think I've got at least a couple of good shots, but my imaging computer is in the middle of an upgrade at the moment...

We finished up with talk of having another meet soon (Werribee?) so it can't have been all that bad.

[Oz_Beachside]

Oh, sh&$. So sorry, I pasted those details from the September meet and missed that sentence in my edit.

Bad post on my part, sorry again!

[DaveB]

Doh!

[whoalse]

dammit...i missed it again...
have been very quiet and been away for some time...
