Never done a poll before so hope this is right. I like the idea about CCD cleaning.

Dates: either 10th or 17th April

Thinks to shoot.

Lavender Farm in Mornington somewhere.
Portsea / Sorrento Peir.
Portsea Backbeach.
Beach huts.
Cape Schanck Lighthouse and cliffs (sort of like Great Ocean Rd).
Bushmans Bay?
Wierd looking lonesome tree on hill.

They all sound good Nicole.

I have to drive Rosanne to the airport on 10/4 and pick her up on 17/4, so whatever is decided, I'll try and be there.

We can make it another weekend if you want Greg.

Not many responses so far anyway! :(

Well if you're going to do Cityscapes and the Docklands you better make sure it's a nice day. Maybe it's just me but I find that if it's cloudy structures look fairly dull. You want a lot of sun to get nice reflected light off of structures imho.

Whereas landscape shoots can either be sunny or cloudy.

I'm also most interested in a CCD cleaning demo. Not brave enough to try this yet. Plenty of docs on it, but there's nothing like seeing it being performed in person..

May even be able to drag a few more people along as well.

Till next time...
Regards
