Vivid Sydney 2012

Postby aim54x on Tue May 29, 2012 2:51 pm

I am quite surprised that no one has mentioned this as yet, especially since it has already started.

http://www.vividsydney.com/

The festival of light started on the 25th May and will go on until the 11th of June. As per usual I will probably end up being out there a few times, but it is always a good excuse to try to catch up with all of you!

So to kick things off, does anyone have any preference to a particular night when we can meet for a poke around the light sculptures?

I am tired of vivid sydney images already to be honest..same sh$t different year.

I may go but it will be a week night I think - the crowds are just depressing :roll:

Did you have any ideas on a day Cameron?

I think I will be out and about around Vivid either Friday or Saturday night...not sure at this point in time.

I will be headed out with some other friends next Wednesday but I fear that will be a lot of walking and not much shooting.
