EOI: [Syd] Sculptures by the Sea -Light painting - 6 Nov 7pm

Postby surenj on Tue Sep 14, 2010 7:18 pm

** EDIT ** Date now confirmed

6 Nov
7 PM

PM for meeting location.

Original Post....


Some people may be going to Gary's minimeet to check out this event at a civilised hour.

Gather your EL wires because, I want to try and lightpaint some of these sculptures away from the crowds at later or earlier hours. I am keen to do a sunrise AND a sunset to get different feels and see what we can come up with. If you are interested in the possibilities I suggest you look through Brent Pearson's blog.

*Having a powerful torch is an optional extra*

Ideas?

If I wasn't on a ship bound for Antarctica I'd be keen :) Sounds like a great photo op, and a good chance to get very creative!

I have been thinking as this may potentially clash with Patrick's bushwalk.

Other options are 30th October (sunrise is 6am, sunset 19:20), 13th Nov (sunrise 5:45, sunset 19:35).

I guess the sunrise on 30th would still avoid the crowds.

Thoughts?
