Hey Dud mate. I'm really proud of my Beemer, she's working really good at the moment. Patched up a few leaks and polished the duco and she's as good as new. Great to hear from you again. I'm off to america in a month, looking forward to that as you can imagine. Guess what? I'm even gonna catch up with the legendary guy they call Gary Ayala!

Great idea guys. I have enjoyed this thread; particularly the street scenes. Thanks for sharing.

Haha you Aussies are a bunch of characters you are.

Good to see you guys meeting up and having fun, and even managing to get some photography done! I do enjoy getting together for group outings, it's really fun. Like Brady said, you get to exchange some fresh ideas with each other. Although there are definitely times you want to go solo, with out distractions for that pure focus.

Wow! Interesting trip & catching up with Gary Ayala. Have a good one.

I'll be sure to contact you and and Nic when i get there.

Two great sets from you guys and even more important, it looks like you had fun! Interacting on forums is a fantastic modern phenomenon made possible by technology, but it doesn't beat meeting up in person. On another forum, where I spend too much time, we have regular meets in different parts of the UK. I'm particularly fortunate to have quite a few fellow members close to where I live - it's great to see the approach others have to photography, exchange ideas and borrow each other's gear.

I'd thoroughly recommend members of this forum forming local groups to meet up whever possible.

Sounds great, Brady. AMERICA, where everything is larger than life! I reckon you'll be at home. Have a great time and take heaps of pics. We're off to Spain in mid October for three weeks. I'm looking forward to that.
Cheers
DUD

Great thread - looks like the two of you had a great time. I loved the street shots - something I really have trouble with. I feel awkward pointing a camera at strangers. I did get shots of folks at a festival I attended, mostly shooting with the 100-300 and firing with the touch screen on the E-P3. Not quite the same though. You both got some great shots.

Missed this thread first time around.

Great shots guys. Love the candid of Bhupinder.

Icon -- you are caught! Never shoot with the PL25, unless you've got US$500-600 free layin' about to spend!
