Photo Walk Mon. May 27th

kenwood

Hi Boardies,

I will be in Dublin on Monday night May 27th and would be interested in doing a Photo Walk with like minded photographers.

Anybody interested give a shout here and a walk can be arranged to suit everybody.

Cheers in anticipation.............

Where about were you thinking?

kenwood

Hi Tallon,

Have open mind, I have been on a few before and we covered Christchurch, Temple Bar, Four courts. On another we did the Aviva, Dodder River, Gasworks area and then did the Custom House, Quays, and O2 on another occasion.
I don't mind doing one of these again or doing another route.
Have you a route you'd like to do?

Hi Folks


Any takers...............

Hi denis,

slowcyclist

Know little enough about photography, but eager to learn. Never been on a photo walk before. Would love to join in.

kenwood

@TTWNF : Ok counted in........

@slowcyclist : Your more than welcome to come along and hopefully you will know a little more when you leave us......

Hi Denis, I hope to make this walk. What time do you expect to start out at? It doesn't get dark until 10ish so should be a nice daylight walkabout.
Cheers and will confirm nearer the 27th.

@Pixbyjohn: Hi John, How are you keeping?
I'll be leaving Cork about 5 ish so hopefully meet about 8 ish. Would that suit people?

I'll have my swimming gear with me on Monday so not bringing the DSLR but if I can tag along with my G15 then I might be up for it.

So long as everyone promises not to bring any steel wool with them :pac:

I'd love to join as well.

@TTWNF

All welcome guys, and STEEL WOOL is banned lol

Anyone have preferences on where to start...........

Denis

jonnybangbang

No preference personally, but where are we starting?

Ben D Bus

How about TCD? Absolutly nothing to do with the fact that's where I'll be swimming on Monday

Maybe through the college, out onto Lincoln Place (or Pearse St) and on to Merrion Square and beyond?

Just a suggestion. I can be anywhere city centre by 8pm.

kenwood

Hi,
@ Johnnybangbang ; how about the Custom House steps about 8 pm.?




Denis

jonnybangbang

Since I really don't mind where we go and since Kenwood started this tread. the customs house it is.

8pm?

Tallon

Think I'll tag along to this!

I hardly need my tripod?

May pop in myself. I find the best time that you need a tripod is when you don't bring one with you :P

I didn't bring a tripod (and I only brought my compact camera), so I'm virtually guaranteeing you all some excellent tripod using opportunities

Hi Boardies,

A tripod is essential if your doing long exposures. Maybe one could use a wall or some other object but I find one is handy, especially for night time shots


Weather is bad down here this morning but it is to clear so hoping it will as the day goes on..........

Denis

Good morning all,
Have we finalised a starting point yet?

That was my thinking, but it's not going to be dark?

Be leaving about 4 ish so see ye all at Custom House at 8.

I'd completely forgotten that I had something else planned for this evening so it's most unlikely I'm going to make it

Great night last night. We were blessed with the weather.

Tallon

Great night! Made sure I had the tripod with me, only to find I had no head

Really enjoyed meeting some boardies last night and learning plenty about photography. Thanks to everyone for sharing your expertise and advice, and thanks to kenwood for arranging. Here are some of my meagre efforts:

Great shots from the walk, sorry I missed it but my local weather was wet and miserable so thought it would be too wet in town also. Well done all, hope to meet on another walk.

Ben D Bus

Sorry I missed it too. You were still going at 1am???

kenwood

Hi folks

Thanks to all the boardies who turned up on Monday night. Weather was perfect and the time passed very quickly. Brilliant photos taken. Well done to all. Will have to repeat in the autumn ......
