LoFi – Toy Camera II

  • jessthespringer
    Participant

    We had one in April, one of the best days out I’ve had with a camera, just really good fun, speeding around Dublin on the top deck of a HoHo tourist bus.

    I like to organise another, I though it might happen before the end of summer, but there seems to be lots happening else where.

    So, I’m now thinking of sometime before the end of October, before winter descends and there is still light to a reasonable hour.

    Anyone interested? All welcome…

    Open for suggestions of things to do also, there has been one suggestion of ‘a day at the races’ but if you have ideas, lets hear them.

    Ideas:

    A day at the races
    A car/stroke boat trip
    A ghost bus trip
    A walk around the markets

    Can I use my new plank?

    How about a night at the opera?

    Now Joseph… Is your plank really LoFi? You can use it, but only with the motion sickness lens.

    The Opera? Goodness me… that’s very posh! Don’t know if I have a dress to match my Holga.

    Duck Soup?

    I was wondering if I’d be able to work that one in…

    A preliminary YES

    and Im not bringing the digital this time especially if
    we are going on the bus/bike/car/boat thing.

    JB should be fine if the the thing goes down he will
    have plenty of buoyancy with the arca-irish !

    Alan, since I’m not allowed to bring the Plank,
    I’m hardly going to be allowed to bring something better…

    You’re just trying to stir it up Alan,
    less of that monkey business…

    Sorry JB of course it is not the Arca Irish . . .

    I meant the point and shoot :oops:

    Welcome aboard deborah… Literally. maybe…

    Good idea Martin… I might be too scoundered to actually take any pictures though. Maybe…

    Joseph, are you worried about helmet hair? I’d be concerned about that too.

    uhhhhhh, I’m in!!!!!!! even if it’s the Viking Splash Duck tour :)

    P.S.

    OK.. I’m in.

    Disaster & emergencies aside… if I don’t show up then Mark can ban me from the site for a month.

    Don’t get any funny ideas now e.g. changing the meet location so I can’t find y’is and getting me banned on purpose.

    Wot’s the name of that street with all the markets… Thomas Street? I wouldn’t mind taking a trek up that way if it’s possible or something similar?
