Australia/New Zealand Sydney RFF September / October Meet Up - Cockatoo Island

[batey_1020]

After such a fun afternoon with other RFF members I’m planning another meet.

Some members have expressed interest in Cockatoo Island.

Regular ferries run all day from Circular Quay and late into the evening.

I’m suggesting a late afternoon meet into the evening since I love landscape and evening light . Although it could very quickly consume a full day and many rolls of film out there.

For those considering travelling from outside of Sydney you could make a weekend of it.

Possible dates

September 28th or 29th

October 5th or 6th (this is a long weekend so i suspect it may be busy).

October 12th or 13th

I may be on a trip with my climbing club when it takes place but im happy to get something underway.

Adrian, good going with the early organising. Hopefully we get a few more people for a party. Of the dates you put up, I can only do September 28/29. I prefer 28th being a Saturday. I can't do any days in October. I'll have to miss out if it turns out that October weekends suit more of us.

Nice idea. Probably not the long weekend. I'll come if I can.

At present all dates look good for me, although it is probably best to avoid the long weekend. Looking forward to it.

cheers,

Hi: I am new to the forum. May I join . But I am not sure if I
got a Rangefinder camera by that time.

david-syd, anyone can join. Please come. The nice thing about RFF is that it's Multicultural. You could probably turn up without a camera and just use your fingers for framing.

I'm keen. I'll see if I can get time off for good behavior (wife and kids...).

Getting closer to October now and closer to another meet up with everyone.

I'm in if it's 28/9 or 29/9. Can't do October at all.
