Very nice Scott.

I'll have a completely different perspective.
I never took the Sigma 120-300 off! :lol:

Too heavy and it's friction welded itself to the body?

I hadn't been to the gym in a while, and needed a good workout.

Hope you like Scotts pic up there. ;)

Well again I seem to have missed out on a "big" event.

After wazzas call I got a call from my mum in Tauranga saying my nisce had broken down in auckland. She got back to my place with stuffed raditor. My parents came up and basically the motor was fryed.

The ironary is all she wanted was a nice weekend away from everything and everyone and it all turned to custard. How many of us know that feeling :(

Nice one Scott! Thanks for having us over. It was good meeting a few more Kiwi POTNers face to face... and getting off a few shots at the pier and Lantern festival.

Thanks everyone.

And did you shoot that in manual?
Yes, these days I shoot manual for any shots I have time to think about, and Av the rest of the time.

Thanks for having us over.
No problem, I think if our group gets any bigger though we are going to have to find somewhere with a bit more room. It was gettin a bit crowded.

Well again I seem to have missed out on a "big" event.
Sorry you couldn't amke it, we needed another leg for the coffee table:

Like your take on a familiar scene, Scott. Love the line of clouds, the breakwater posts and the city sky line. Certainly would look great on a large pano on the wall....
You done good.

Thanks everyone.

The problem with panos is they don't fit standard frame sizes so end up cost a lot more to get custom frames and mat boards made for them.

Great shot, Scott :D
That 'mooring' boundry line is exactly where I had wanted to take a picture.
I was a pack camel at the time, however..

Pack camel, coz I put my Sigma bag and tripod down, and walked off taking pics of the ship. So sorry. :o
