I am guessing we might be getting a few photos from the weekend, so thought I would knock up a couple of threads for us to share some shots.

This one is for general shots from the weekend. I have made another one in People & Portraits for shots of the models etc (as I think there might be a few of them!) - http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=4658598

So come on then, what ya' got?

(Mine are just uploading to Flickr)

Damn, really wish we had made it down to the beach :( That looks so cool!
 
I'd like to say thanks to all those involved with the setting up of this weekend, I thoroughly enjoyed myself and meeting and putting faces to names.

Also thanks to those who imparted their wisdom upon us; I particularly learned quite a lot form the lectures.

Cheers All! :D
 
:LOL: Looks like I was throwing the Lassi at Mike in that..errr....'zoom' shot!

Anyway, for those that didn't get to the curry, here are the people you missed - I am afraid you will all have to fill in the missing details/corrections where necessary, my ability to remember names is infamously bad :nuts:

You should check out HIS user title :naughty:
 
Better class of photographer maybe :runaway:

Seriously I hope all the people that said they were coming will be suitably annoyed to see just how great our weekend was. ;)

Oy John, we are trying to contact you :)
 
I think you might have been hiding from the models, behind your camera! :naughty:

About 10.30 -12 they were there, Chris [Cobra] popped in on his way north with his working ladies and very generously allowed one to come in and say hello. I have never spent so long with a single BOP and she was simple gorgeous. It really is only close up you realise how brilliantly 'designed' they are. I want to pass my thanks to Chris (y)

Really... that will teach me for getting lost in the moment :bonk:
 
Great Weekend. Here's a few non-model photos I got.

While we were freezing our ar$es off waiting for you lot to finish, or should I say start, your curries we were getting some practice down at the sentinel

Thanks to Manc Man and Thedodo for doing a superb job of spinning and for bringing the kit.

Finally whilst out the back I obviously got distracted away from the models and took a photo of the container. Boring shot I know but played in pp to get a more abstract

Yv, her name is June. Now maybe someone can help me? I spoke to June and said that I presumed she was Mike's better half, to which she said "no, I just caught a lift up with him". I laughed, thinking she was joking, and she said "no really, I just caught a lift with him - i'm fairly new to the forum". However, Darren has been to Mike's house and thought that June was Mike's wife! Mind you, Darren has to meet someone at least five (to a hundred) times, with plenty of mentions of their name each time, before he reliably remembers who a person is! He has been attending my small church (only about thirty members) almost every week for almost two years, and still can't remember some peeps' names!!!
