A great day was had by all in pristine photographic conditions in Coffs Harbour today. A big thank you to all those forum members who travelled such long distances to be here today. It was a pleasure to meet you fellas.
Here are a few images from today's meet in Coffs.

After all the rain and storms this week (month), it was an excellent day to walk around Coffs and enjoy the spectacular scenery.

Hey, I told everyone and it happened, Little Trev has outshone us all, a budding pro no doubt. Well done mate. Greg, he is one well behaved and polite 11 yo kid and a real credit.
Welcome down Coffs way anytime!
Cheers,
Max

Looks like you all had a top day. My capabilites only stretched as far as the Byron Bay Hinterland this weekend so the MantaClan was unable to join you all.
Shots offered so far are terrific - love the bee, Bernie, and I have to agree with the positive comments being thrown Little Trev's way - that lad has a good eye!
Congrats "Max" on putting together what looks like a great meet.
Craig (JordanP) rang me this arvo to see if I was still around the Byron area but I was already back in front of my PC processing my own shots from the weekend. He said he'd had a great time in Coffs. Thanks for thinking of me Craig and I look forward to catching up with all of you soon!

Thanks Max and Robyn for organising a fantastic day and a special thanks to Robyn for the muffins and scones. Great pano Max.
Bernie and Craig, thanks for the tuition and bringing all the toys.
Trev had a ball he now wants to save for a dslr
Blaize, sorry Lisa and yourself were unable to make it.

No Chris, his head is fine, it's his three legs (aka Jake the Peg) that look really funny; gives him great stability though...

Well, an excellent day was had. Much thanks to everyone that turned up - but particular thanks to our hosts Max and Robyn. Thanks so much for your warm hospitality.
I haven't even downloaded the images off my card yet so I will hopefully post some images later tonight.
Images so far are outstanding. Big Pix, the bee rocks. Little Trev, you could always consider a career as a professional photographer if your professional soccer career goes stale. Max, your pano is very impressive and Greg, that shot of Craig telling you to "take a nice photo or else" is precious.
..... images to come......

Nice collection Craig, well shot.
We will have to do it again in the not to distant future.
Merry Christmas to all.
Cheers,
