Man, I wish 75 had a forum, these notes are cool, but I (we?) need more.

    Yes.

  2. lebogang nkoane

    I am thinking a knowledge repository.

    You know including common information on where to print, where to buy material and equipment, where to fix cameras, where to get equipment for hire.

    Tutorials on how to do stuff: bokeh, tilt-shifting, free lensing, studio lighting, post production, apps to aid in photography;

    almost like a wiki, and yes, a forum to discuss things related to photography not only technical but also the role of photography in society, type of things.

    Wait, I just thought we need to do a photography-meet up.

    yeah.

  3. lebogang nkoane

    Oh, yes, it can also be used to organise meetups and stuff like that.

  4. Sheri_G

    Im up for a meet-up.... Really wanna meet the peeps behind the pics!

  5. Lebogang Ditibane

    where meet ups are concerned... i think theres been some talks but never actual actions leading to them, how about a random weekend, either a saturday or sunday we set up a facebook event (i think we are all on facebook) and just do it... come one come all type of thing... i dont know,
    what u think?

  6. seilatsatsi

    The repository will definately be useful.
    and a meet up is a bit overdue.

  7. Khumbelo

    it all sounds good to me, love the knowledge repository part of it.

  8. lebogang nkoane

    Awe!

    Maybe part of the meet-up could be a chance to discuss idea around 75?

    So when do we meet?

  9. Diaan

    I have a really bad track record for attending events, so I'll just shut up and see what everyone else says first.

  10. lebogang nkoane

    Nah, Diaan.

    You sparked the match! You can't just sit back.

    So the question how much do we all need to schedule a meet-up? one week? two weeks? three weeks? a month? from now?

  11. Diaan

    :P

    I can't think more than a few weeks in advance, and I'm not too busy at the moment, so how about between 1 and 4 weeks from now?

  12. lebogang nkoane

    Ok.

    Lets say, on the 30th of June? We can use this date at a mark to see who is available and who is not and change it if need be to accommodate everybody?

  13. seilatsatsi

    im in durban that weekend but if the majority is available i shall hear all about it upon my return

  14. Karabo_Ngoatle

    The 30th is bloody far and prolly winter will be too cold

    How about we meet next week?

  15. lebogang nkoane

    @Seilatsatsi: Hmmm,,, lets see, a what dates would work for you?

    @Karabo: yeah, 30th is far, but odds are we all got things to do; hence a late date so people can make the meet-up what they will do, have time to plan for it.

    But, if we can meet next week so shall it be.

  16. Lebogang Ditibane

    camping on the weekend of the 30th, free for karabo's next week.

  17. seilatsatsi

    im free next week too

  18. Sheri_G

    I free next week...

  19. Diaan

    Free next week. Well, most days.

  20. lebogang nkoane

    How is the weekend looking for yáll?

    Eish, the weekend is the 16th of June, should we make it the 17th on Sunday?

  21. Diaan

    Either are good for me so far.

  22. lebogang nkoane

    Awesome! 16 or 17th provincial.

    *dances*

  23. Lebogang Ditibane

    i vote for 17th June

  24. lebogang nkoane

    17th seems like it.

    So, then next question is: where? What is central to all and accessible? Somewhere warm though, this Winter is making it hard to even type these words.

  25. Diaan

    How about somewhere near Arts on Main, considering it's a Sunday so the place should be nice and lively? There are a few places around there that could be possibilities. I'll leave the other suggestions up to the Joburg locals since they're bound to have loads of ideas.

  26. lebogang nkoane

    Word, Arts on Main could work! Plus its a market thing magic right? I like it.

  27. lebogang nkoane

    Eish, I've just been informed that on Sunday it's Father's day.

    Father's day is non-event for me, so those of you that do celebrate it, should we move the date or reschedule the time we meet?

  28. Diaan

    Yeah, it's a market day. As for father's day, my father is touring France with my stepmom, so as long as I send an sms I'm safe.

    If we move it to Saturday the market vibes could still work, I'm sure there are some cool (aka, warm and cozy) places near the neighbourhoods goods market, or whatever it's called.

  29. Jeff Rikhotso

    Im game for any day

  30. lebogang nkoane

    Yeah, there is the Great Dane spot opposite the "neighbourgoods market" and next to Kitchners.

    I suppose Saturday could work, considering it's only Youth Day, we would have no obligations.

    Awe!

  31. Diaan

    Late night idea: how about a very short collab, something random we can do at the meetup, kinda like a theme, just location based instead.

  32. lebogang nkoane

    I am game!

    :)

  33. lebogang nkoane

    Saturday, Braamfontein (Neighbourgoods Market + Great Dane)
    Time will be when the market opens I suppose right?
