***The "We need another meet in Summer 2013" thread***

maybe manchester?

im down south in brighton but im game for a northern meet

Yeah, makes more sense than Leeds No idea how many forum members up here would be up for it, but I would. I'd be embarrassed to rock up with my kit lens and nifty 50 after seeing what these lads are carting around!

Would have to be something someone would know where to go round. York is supposed to be alright though? Not that I've really been, but somewhere you can get to in a few hours from London

When's the Thames Festival? Open House is 21st isn't it? Got a mates 21st (yes another one ) that day, which is a shame as I'd love to do it!

Got up early, finished photos.

#1
At 07:05 the train was quite empty, usually it's filled leaving Portsmouth, at least it has been last few times I've travelled on SWT!

#2
Jimmy1983 and I waited for anyone else at Waterloo for a bit before making way for Canary Wharf.

#3
The panels kept reminding me of POrtal, half expected a panel to randomly pop out.

#4
Lots of interesting ways to compose this kind of shot.

#5
A Wasabi worker posed for this one as we passed through Canary Wharf onto the DLR.

#6a #6b
Waiting to meet Clown at Canary Wharf spotted 2 officers observing the public, this guy was called Colin, seemed like he wanted a bit of a head rub

#7
A shoe box.

#8
jonneymendoza @ Nando's.

#9
Back on the tube, Jimmy1983, jonneymendoza and Clown.

#10
Woman on the tube car.

#11
Cannot remember which station this was.

#12
A man checks his phone at Borough Market whilst nomming.

#13
This woman didn't have any noms ;(

#14
Busted!

#15
The umbrella roof at Brew Wharf.

#16
A woman reading a book inside a gated church (?).

#17
Street performances were in abundance as usual.

#18
People were umming and ahhing and exchanging views on how this is done

#19
Heh.

#20
2 minutes walk along and a DJ was playing some music before a crowd, this girl was enjoying it quite a bit.

#21
This man was playing his own music though.

#22
The skate park riders were pretty cool to let us get in with them to take shots.

#23

#24

#25

#26
Back on the walkabout...

#27
Spoke of noms earlier

#28
A woman negotiates how much she is going to pay for the drawing of the kid.

#29
A steel drum player posed for a few portraits while playing.

#30

#31

#32
There was a Japanese fashion festival going on somewhere new Hungerford Bridge, saw these girls walking past so asked for a picture. Apparently it had finished by that time.

#33
Another player on the bridge.

#34
Clown.

#35
And to finish off, a short timelapse off the same bridge, I'll need to shoot for most of the night to get a couple of minutes of footage next time.

Cheers for the meet-up guys, looking forward to wherever/whenever the next one is

York is cool with me. Love York Minster, and the place itself would suit some street photography.

 

[Jimmy1983]

Will try and get my photos online tonight if I get the chance.

 

[Phate]

So gutted I missed this, apologies for my flakeyness! I spent the majority of Saturday, in bed, hanging out of my anus.

 

[Janesy B]

The floating man is a bit of a con really. The carpet hides a base, the pole is joined to the base and loops down the jacket and makes a little seat for the performer.

 

[mrk]

Yup it was pretty clear how it was done but that didn't stop people being a bit simple and trying to figure it all out hehe.

 

[dannyjo22]

The floating man is a bit of a con really. .

NO WAY, I actually thought he was floating! In other news Dynamo can't really walk on water

Nice pictures

Jonney stop with the sunglasses on the back of the head

 

[Janesy B]

Your sarcasm is greatly appreciated.

 

[dannyjo22]

Your sarcasm is greatly appreciated.

It's the exact same reply you would have given had someone else posted the bleeding obvious

 

[King Damager]

Thames Festival is 6-15 September.

May be up for this.

Not really around too much though in that time and it's the first week I start work. Seeing as I've got you on FB give me a shout about anything that you come across in the next few months though, because if I'm free I'll probably be happy to pop along (just living quite a busy life right now!)

York is cool with me. Love York Minster, and the place itself would suit some street photography.

Sounds like a plan. I've got a friend who's staying up there next year as well, so really could work quite well if we really needed to do a late night thing xD

Apologies that I missed this. I was alerted on Friday evening that the staff file server at my work fell over. I had to go in Saturday to sort it.

Looks like you had a good day out, great weather and some fantastic shots.

 

[King Damager]

I like how Clown, being the one most objectionable to having shots taken of himself, seems to have been the one in most people's final photos xD

[jonneymendoza]

Will post a bit more from the skatepark in a bit
