Sydney, Cairns, Perth; Australia - November 2008

[dcsang]

I'll be in the land of Oz during the month of November (well.. at least till November 15 or thereabouts).

Sydney - November 2 - 6
Cairns - November 6 - 10
Perth - November 10 - 15
(Fiji - November 15 - 20)

So... anyone in that neck of the woods want to meet up?

Cheers,
Dave

A better question, and deals whereby we can use Dave as a courier to bypass shipping/customs fees 🙂

I live in perth, you may like it, it's an interesting city. If you want to meet up and go street shooting I'd be happy to show you my usual haunts. I'm not actually sure if there are other members from perth on this forum or not, but It would be interesting to meet some other RFFers

Cool !! 🙂

I'm staying in Gingin just outside of Perth but will be in Perth often during that time frame.

Cheers,
Dave

What, you're not visiting Canberra, Australia's capital?!

That's ok, we're used to being overlooked. Sniff...

I am in Perth at the moment but have no idea where i'll be in november haha

usagisakana: do you know anywhere that is good for getting 120 processed in Perth?

 

[usagisakana]

Fitzgeralds, on fitzgerald st over mt lawley way, or mirage digital on hay st in subi are the two places I've used for E6 and C41. I do my own B+W.

awesome thanks! its all c41 as I am traveling and knew that it would be difficult to get real black & white processed (I do my own in the UK).

 

[Siluro]

I'm in Perth as well...

I use Fitzgeralds for 120 C41 too, although twice recently they have pulled the leader out too far and fogged the top of the first frame.

Might be time to find a new lab.

Dave, I work in Sydney but live on the Central Coast just North of the great commuter vortex. I do stay in town if there is something on.
It's my birthday around the time you are here so you can bring me lots of presents.
Depending on your and my schedules, of course let's meet. You will have missed the Sydney Camera Market by 2 weeks, sad for you but maybe I'll have a new toy... probably not.
Such a short trip, you need to extend each location by at least a month.

I am in Singapore today, but will return home to Perth tomorrow. I would be glad to catch up subject to my travel arrangements, maybe we could organise a group meet? Gingin is not exactly in the middle of the metropolitan area - are you an astronomer or a gravity wave enthusiast?

Hi Dave,

I work in Sydney so could probably meet up after work for a drink and chat if you'd like. Just stay in touch.

Cheers - John

John, could be a good catalyst for us to finally meet too. Never seen you on the train...

I'm another one from Perth, however I'll be in India in November.

There are a friendly bunch of people on flickr, I'm sure you could make a couple of friends - http://www.flickr.com/groups/perth_photo/

Hi Tarzak,

Used to catch the train some years ago but now have the company car with flashing red lights 🙂

It would be great to all meet together if we could.

Tarzak,

When exactly is the market and where, I keep on missing it!

John,

I like the idea of flashing lights!

The camera market is on Sunday the 19th of October.
From 10:00–15:00
Ultimo Community Centre
Cnr William Henry St and Bulwara St.

I'm going to ride in the Sydney Spring Cycle from North Sydney to Sydney Olympic Park then either catch the train (or ride if I'm not too rooted) to the market. Probably get there at 11:00 but I'd hope to get there by 10:00 if possible.
