    There are a few of us... Anyone fancy (in principal) an evening/night shoot along some places in London? Everyone'll be welcome, irrespective of kit/experience etc

    Some great places to shoot along the river: Parliment, London eye, etc etc...

    That sounds like a fantastic idea. Shame I live in DK, really. But good luck with it.

    Morriss, if you really want. We could make it a friday or a saturday. Book a cheap flight and a sleezy hotel for the night and fly back the next day.

    I'm sure it wouldn't be the crazist thing you've ever done... An you'll get some great pictures...

    . o O ( Or maybe we could all fly over to you for a shoot :) )

    I think it sounds like a great idea, I'm sure me and rutty would be up for that. Might actually give me a kick up the arse to start taking photos again!

    Pffft...you'll all go for a drink and then end up taking 'naughty' photos of each other.

    This will be very important. We'll be making long exposures (/curtains).

    July 17 sounds OK in principle... A Monday.

    Anyone interested but would find the 17th a no-go?

    I don't drink either. Drinking's for L0Z3rz.

    I'll be into coming up for this. Any day that week looks good for me.

    Ginger, I'll be able to let you use mine when I'm not using it. Night photography pretty much requires a tripod...

    Um, Looks like the 21st of July is better for almost everyone (except otto?) as it's a Friday...

    21st everyone?

    It's all in the 'delivery' Deem.

    I'm not spending Friday night with 'strangers from the internet', I'm going into London for a night photography session, and meeting up with other photographers.

    Friday nights are not 'big' nights out for me and the missus. It's typically a 'watch TV and fall asleep on the sofa' night these days. We're both too tired :/

    Hey, can someone add me to this - flickr name is gingertp

    request sent!

    Oh, and there's no way I'll be able to make the Friday night - seems that I have the same problem as Deem...

    Sounds like an ace idea!

    I'll be in London in late July/early August, though moving about.

    Early in the week of the 17th (July)?

    I'll be arriving late Saturday in the UK so probably can't really get away on Sunday, first day back in the country. :(

    edit - and 21st won't work for me either, it's our anniversary. Ten blimmin' years! :o
