I have earned myself a free ticket to spend Saturday as I wish. I am therefore proposing a photo - meet somewhere in or around Sydney. I will be free from something like 8 am or so to about 5 (can't relegate all parental duties).

I will be dragging at the 4x5, so I won't be walking very far.

My thoughts are:

1. A trek to the Blue Mountains for some big landscapes (downside is the time to get there and back for one day)
2. Northern beaches (perhaps Newport/Palmy) - midday long exposure
3. The Rocks - midday long exposure - with long enough exposure, the human element may be removed, as per Eugene Atchet. It has been suggested that this may be an issue around this time of year. I am not sure this will be too much of a problem.

The benefit of options 2 or 3 is the pub lunch that can easily coincide.

Anyone interested and any other ideas?

If you end up in the CBD come past and visit me at work......

Will see how I go - if I am at the Rocks, not sure I want to lug the Cambo all the way down Kent Street!

I am semi keen.

as am I but I prob can't get away till 10:30ish so I'd have to rock up late if I did

Don't sweat it - no definite plans at this stage, so a later kick off can be accommodated.

I love to attend, but can't

That could definitely be an option - some LF long exposures around QVB would look good.

I am a possible...

I am more partial to landscape stuff at newport, but then I would not mind some city stuff either - its gotta be fairly early though...

How early is early? I will find it difficult to get to the city before about 8:30am.

how about 9 ish in the city - that could work for me, I will only have a couple of hours to burn, but its better than a kick in the arse.

Sounds good. I will be down around the QVB end of town.
