Tuesday Dublin night shooting, anyone?

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 1:12am #1

Thinking of doing a little evening/night shooting around Dublin city center area on Tuesday. Would love a bit of company. Don;t really have anything specific in mind, just don't want too far from city center.

Tiesto · 26-10-2009 1:16am

haha i found this thread very strange until I realised it was posted in the photography forum

sineadw · 26-10-2009 1:18am

Can't make it this tuesday, but I think Kyle's organising something for the wed after?

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 1:32am

Ack, I don't think I could make it Wed.

Might be on my own with this one.

26-10-2009 2:09am

tuesday is grand with me. I was planning on heading out this week anyway for a walkabout

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 2:27am

excellent!

I was thinking of heading in around 5 or 6 and stating out as late as 11, depending on weather and if I could get someone to join me.

26-10-2009 12:37pm

Thats grand with me. I live in city centre so can get whereever, whenever!

Jemmy · 26-10-2009 10:21pm

Hmm I was considering this but I'm totally lost when it comes to night shooting, total night time noob!

kjt · 26-10-2009 10:30pm

I'm planning on heading into town this Wed night for a bit of stop-motion (might not be everybodys bit of tea as I'll be in a few places for 30-50mins each).

Planning a photowalk for the Wed after + I might join ya tomorrow for an hour/2

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 10:41pm

This will be totally informal.

Kyle love to have you around.

Jemmy all you really need is patience and a tripod.

26-10-2009 10:49pm

cool, how / where do we meet?

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 11:04pm

I'll PM you guy my mobile number.

Easiest meeting point for me is Stevens Green arch, but if that's not easy enough for others I can meet else where.
I was thinking of between 6 - 7. Anyone have preference?

If there is some area anyone has wanted to shoot at night, throw it out. I still don't know Dublin that well.

Ah well thats me out, no tripod yet! Still in the early stages of gathering gear, only have a 450D with a kit lense and a sigma 70-300 lense.

26-10-2009 11:28pm

I have one, I'll bring it and am happy enough to share.

Slidinginfinity · 26-10-2009 11:48pm

Between all of us I bet a little tripod sharing would go along way.

I have mine and a gorilla pod.

Ahh aren't you photo crowd so nice! Sharing is caring!

Sorry seriously tho big thank you for the offer Zaraba, I'll see how I'm fixed for getting off early to make it up from Wicklow. Slidinginfinity sent me his number so if I don't get online I'll be able to find ye.

MartMax · 27-10-2009 1:02am

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 1:18am

one2one · 27-10-2009 1:13pm

Can I join you tonight please? Should be able to make it along

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 1:21pm

Absolutely! join in.

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 1:27pm

OK, all time to nial down a meeting point and time.

Stevens green arch, say about, 5:30.

As I said before this is totally informal. I don't really have a plan for destinations, except I would like to walk along the Liffy a bit.

Everyone should have my mobile now, call if ya need to

derokid · 27-10-2009 2:12pm

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 2:15pm

Always room for one more.

I'll pm ya.

MartMax · 27-10-2009 2:55pm

Unfortunately, I'll be stuck at work today and other routines till late evening

so I have to pass. Anyway, hope you guys have good time tonight.

Jemmy · 27-10-2009 3:26pm

I is coming!

Not sure if I'll make it in for half 5 but I'll give you a text/call later and see where you are and where to meet ye. It's windy and raining here in Wicklow, is it the same in Dublin?! :eek:

Kintarō Hattori · 27-10-2009 3:28pm

Damn I would have joined you only I'm working away from the office today and will be shattered when I get back. I'm based in the city centre so gimme a shout next time you want to do something.

Too bad ya can't make it.
Will definitly shout out next time.:D

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 4:45pm

is 5:30 too early?

I know it is for night shooting but I was thinking we could do a bit, take a break (grab a pint), do a bit more shooting.

one2one · 27-10-2009 5:02pm

How about 6 or 6-30? At least the traffic trying to get in will have died down a bit!

6.30+ would be a lot nicer for me..

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 5:05pm

6:30 - 7 is fine

one2one · 27-10-2009 5:06pm

Yes, and we should finish up about 9.30/10 (well me anyways, I have to commute back to Tallaght on a bus!)

Jemmy · 27-10-2009 5:07pm

Ok so are we going for 6.30 then? same place?

I'm coming up from the south if anyone needs a lift along my way.

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 5:08pm

6:30 stevens green arch (north west corner)

one2one · 27-10-2009 5:09pm

If were heading around by the Liffey would O'Connell Bridge/ The Spire not be a easier option? Just a suggestion!!

It probably would have been. Stevens green was purely a selfish choice as I will be coming in on the Luas.:D
I think at this pint some people might not be able to check the thread and are expecting Stevens green.

one2one · 27-10-2009 5:32pm

Ok, no problem. see you there around 6.30.

Buzz Lightyear · 27-10-2009 5:54pm

Gonna pop in for a few hours. DCC have their winter league starting this evening, which I'd like to make. So if you don't mind me tagging along for an hour our two I'll see you at the arch

:D

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 5:56pm

See ya there Buzz

kjt · 27-10-2009 5:59pm

Enjoy tonight guys!! Sadly I can't make it.

Going to pop in to town tomorrow night if it ain't raining, a bit of stop motion if anybodys interested.

Slidinginfinity · 27-10-2009 6:06pm

I am going to head in to town now. Text/call if you need me.

KJT - where/when are you meeting up?

Leaving wicklow now, up in about an hour!

Probably head into town for 6, I want to get some shots from Grafton st, Trinity main gates, Oconnell st and maybe one or two other spots. Depends on how long it's going to take at each place. Could be boring for a lot of people though, the more the merrier!

Slidinginfinity · 28-10-2009 12:49am

It was good fun, nice meeting you all.
Love to see some of your shots.

Jemmy · 28-10-2009 1:31am

Just home, great night. Nice to meet you all. I'll stick up my favourites 2moro.
Thanks Slidinginfinity for organising it!

I have to say big thanks to BuzzLightyear for the tripod!

He's so lovely.

I'll make good use of it for the next few days!

Slidinginfinity · 28-10-2009 1:57am

I want to see yours here up for C&C or in the random thread

Aw gee thanks

I'm glad you got some use of it. I'm looking forward now to seeing the results

Big thanks to Slidinginfinity for the get together.

I'm in Galway tomorrow night so I'll process some them and pop 'em up.

28-10-2009 10:16am

Nice meeting you all!

Cheers to SlidingInfinity for putting it all together and the loan of the gorilla pod!
