Yup I'm at the afternoon session! I'll keep an eye out for someone sinister looking... or maybe a citeog?!

derokid · 05-02-2011 9:52pm

I was wondering where you had gone to.

bigmanhole · 07-02-2011 10:31pm

Count me in - had a good night on the docklands walk - no work next day so looking forward to a pint already!! 550d

Thecageyone · 07-02-2011 10:35pm

Back in as a maybe, thought it was the 5th for some reason. I actually dropped back in to see results from the night

SinisterDexter · 09-02-2011 8:43am

So are we all still up for it?

Looking forward to the bit of 'street photography'!

runrabbit · 09-02-2011 9:15am

I'm still in!

Thecageyone · 09-02-2011 6:26pm

Looking like i'm in. So long as the bus timetable suits.

D90 with just the 17-50 lens for this one. If anyone has a nice macro lens I could have a go on, that'd be sweet.

Promac · 09-02-2011 7:52pm

I'll try to make it too - probably won't make it for kick-off but I'm sure it won't be hard to spot 30-odd tripods being hoisted round grafton street!

Do we have a pub sourced yet?

Cyrusmekon · 09-02-2011 8:04pm

Im in....

Bringing a friend as well.

foamcutter · 09-02-2011 8:44pm

Just after checking the weather for tomorrow evening.
Very Cloudy, 7°, 13km winds with a rain forecast later in the evening.
So we won't need these :cool: but hopefully we won't need umbrellas either.

alexlyons · 09-02-2011 8:45pm

Yup still in! Although if its lashing rain I can't see myself there tbh....

baby and crumble · 09-02-2011 9:25pm

yeah deffo still in +1, but yeah if it's raining I won't be along. Can't afford to get anything wet!

DutchGuy · 09-02-2011 11:00pm

I should be there but might be a bit late. As Promac said though it shouldn't be too hard to find ye.

pullandbang · 09-02-2011 11:09pm

Going to have to pull out of this one Will. Sorry but gotta get home early tomorrow night

xia · 09-02-2011 11:44pm

Weather depending I'm probably in...:p

Thecageyone · 10-02-2011 2:39am

A bit of rain won't kill. Might be dodgy for those of us with non-weather sealed kits though. bring a plastic bag.

Plenty of pub shots otherwise yeah?

Tallon · 10-02-2011 3:05am

I'm going to try get along to this...

I damaged my tripod, so if anyone has a spare one, I would appreciate it

chevron · 10-02-2011 10:23am

A bit late notice but if any spare tripods , i wont say no to a loan.
Otherwise i will try get away with a mini tripod/handheld.

See you all laters

Thecageyone · 10-02-2011 11:22am

I had a cheap spare one, but it's gone too weak to hold anything more than a compact, I wouldn't chance it. I do have a spare plate, though, that's not really much use to anyone I suppose?

Must check return bus times ...

From the ever reliable Met Eireann:

Tonight

Cold early tonight with a slight frost in parts of the midlands and north. But milder later, as cloudy, misty, drizzly weather develops countrywide, with some heavy rain in places later in the night. Temperatures down to between 2 and 5 C., soon after dark , but 4 to 8 C., by dawn.

When exactly is later in the night? All we need is a couple of dry hours.

jaansu · 10-02-2011 11:29am

Might be a tad late.

Daughter's been sick so I've been stuck in the house all week so I can't wait to get out of this house.

Tallon · 10-02-2011 11:36am

I have one thats missing a plate... If it fits, I can fix you up for it

chevron · 10-02-2011 11:37am

A we dont mind a drop of rain, Ads reflections on the ground

Thecageyone · 10-02-2011 11:41am

My fragile D90 might mind though

It's nights like these I miss the D200, that thing could be dropped in a pool and survive*.

*Not actually true D200 owners, try it at your own risk!

pixbyjohn · 10-02-2011 11:42am

I will be there, have tripods for : lao lao, Tylerdurden94 and frag420.
All I ask is that you carry them back to College of Surgeons carpark before you all start drinking the lemonade.

foamcutter · 10-02-2011 11:48am

Ditto what Tallon said

Tallon can have first dibs (unless I'm there first

)

Agreed, but we'd prefer that it rained before the walk not during it

Good point Fran.

SinisterDexter · 10-02-2011 2:34pm

Anybody want my number? Or will I just see you there/along the way?

I'll be wearing the ZSL hat/beanie

Thecageyone · 10-02-2011 2:37pm

Is it the Brown Thomas end of Grafton street, or the other end? I remember you from the last night, should be able to find you, pm your number j.i.c I get lost [as I do] though, cheers

frag420 · 10-02-2011 2:40pm

Hi Folks.

Going to have to pull out of this one. Will be working late this eve as have an awards thing to be ready for tomorrow night in town.

Sorry about short notice,

Will def try and make next one for sure!!

frAg

Teferi · 10-02-2011 3:28pm

Have to pull out of this too. Got tickets for the premier of Paul which is too good to miss. Will hopefully be at the next walk

Time: 7pm
Date: Thursday 10th Feb
Start: Grafton St. Entrance of St. Stephens Green.

from the OP. The meeting point of my first ever boards photowalk... ah, memories. (I'd had the camera a week and thought I'd be fine without a tripod. :rolleyes: Luckily pixbyjohn saved the day! :P)

okmqaz42 · 10-02-2011 4:19pm

I am bringing a nikon 35mm 1.8 (dx) and a 50mm 1.8 for @alexlyons to try.

I also have a sigma 70-300mm f4-5.6 APO DG Macro(also nikon fit) if anyone wanted to try this lens let me know and I will bring it along, I wont bring it unless someone actually wants to try it as it is more gear than I will possibly need for the evening.

tylerdurden94 · 10-02-2011 5:11pm

Bollox was just browsing the Bargain Alerts section and just remembered about this, I wont be able to make it so the tripod that was earmarked for me can go to somebody else if they need it.

Good luck with the walk tonight folks
