Highly recommended.

I hope that you remember to bring band-aids for Don & Sandy Libby. I guarantee you that one of them, as they're not height challenged at all, hits their forehead somewhere in the silos :) LOL

Bike helmets, not band-aids ;D

Post by: algrove on July 28, 2017, 07:35:59 pm: I was there when Don was sprawed out shooting the clockwork that Graham posted somewhere. I was so busy trying to get my Alpa in position I neglected to shoot a "behind the scenes" of Don. Just imagine a giraffe kneeling down to look at a flower 1 foot high. At least his GFX has a tilt out LCD.

Worse than that was the small Hundai rental car he had. He could turn the ignition on and off with his knees.

Post by: Don Libby on August 01, 2017, 09:16:43 pm: No head bumps and no blood spilt inside the silos. The stupid rental car is another matter having to sit down put my head almost between my knees just to get into the damn thing. Never missed my Raptor more than I did that week. And no behind the scenes of me laying down on the floor cuddling next to my tripod and GFX as I shot the gears.

I did have a great time!

Don

Post by: algrove on August 03, 2017, 04:01:04 pm: Agree it was a worthwhile workshop, good people and very low key too. Nice to meet you Don.

You were right. I never should have touched that 150/2.8. Still debating other goodies I touched. Sure does create GAS.

Post by: Graham Welland on August 03, 2017, 07:00:57 pm: Would have loved to join you folks - Mark Maio puts together a great low key event and in fact I went twice last year!

Always fun catching up with Don & Sandy too. Met quite a few new friends there during the events. I will go back soon.

Chris also does a great job looking after everyone.

I've written a couple blogs now on Silo City with plenty of images.
