If everyone goes who says they are going it could well be one of the biggest UK ones yet! However from past experience I would expect 25% or so not to turn up, sometimes these things cant be helped..

By the way, check out the new camera under my name :)


SNOB!

Bah, look at that! You know you'll have a dozen drooling photogs around you at the GTG Simms, don't you?

Canterbury is nice Melethia, if you want I can help you out with info on decent places to stay and things to shoot.
I'm actually considering hosting a Canterbury GTG on June 7th, but I'll wait for my exam schedule.

If any of you fine folks in London happen to see the free show at The Mall gallerys where they are showing the POTY 2007 images, can you take a shot of my photo? I would love to see it in the gallery.

Thanks so much,

Frank

Too many places to go all at one time! I do want to see Canterbury, so there definitely needs to be a GTG there later this summer.

I'm hoping that I will be able to get there for the day as well - after all if Deb can make it there's a limit to how many excuses I can come up with :- )

Of course we have to stop whatever we're doing/shooting at about 3.45pm to make sure we're in a suitable tea room for 4pm sharp

Hey, don't just ignore Andi, he's bringing me, too, and I don't fancy taking the whole thing in from the car, even if it is topless . . . I'll bet she looks good topless, ay? Ay? Nudge nudge, say na more . . .

Bruce

P.S. This means I'll be there :)

Wow, quite a gathering! It will take 4 hours just to meet everyone and get to know names:)

I have been practising, and have taken almost 400 photos in the past couple of days. Luckily we are doing a big landscaping job, so there are plenty of before and after shots!

I am getting used to the 17-85mm USM Canon lens and it is pretty sharp at certain focal lengths. I am also noticing shortcomings with the Sigma 70-300mm APO, but I need to spend some time using it.

Most of my photos are boring here, but they are a record of site work. Guess I just keep plugging away?
