Photography contingent at the Halloween boards beers?

elven

Well? Anyone except me and Fajitas?

Finally, I can show off my elf ears

Fajitas!

Apparently not, but then again, people here don't tend to check the events forum

For the lazy:

Click here

We usually get a good few along for these.

If people desperatly need a room, let me know.

ThOnda

Not for me - I'll be cold and ill after tomorrow's (today's) surfing lesson.

Fajitas!

Psssh, come on. Red lemonade.

gerky

I'd like to go but I cant,I made some of the banner ads for it so I'll claim that as my contribution to the event

Roen

No, the last one I shifted at a boards meet was hefty.

EDIT ***fancy dress or not, she was hefty***

Oriel

If Elven burns her bra, I'll be there.
Otherwise, I've got work.

Fajitas!

The last one you were at wasn't fancy dress.

If there's any mention of bra burning, I'll be sure to post here.

Boards meets are always on at crap times.
In fairness, who doesn't leave a trail of dust, as they make a speedy exit from Dublin on a holiday weekend!?

melekalikimaka

I'llbe there, as Robin Hood

sineadw

Sorry, I'll be in fashionable downtown Clonakilty. Julie ya gotta keep the ears for Wednesday!

Here one word though... not trying to be negative here but careful on the camera front - thread in feedback and the mod forum a few months back about a mod who had taken a camera and video camera to the beers and everyone was raging the next day about breach of privacy etc so.. just a little warning, the mod ended up volunteering to step down etc, dont want a crowd of angry posters going on about some photography forum heads and their big lenses.

Other than that... enjoy the night!!

Fajitas!

Tbh, that was moreso because of the way he acted with the camera.

If you want to bring your camera along, go for it, just respect peoples privacy.

In fact, everyone said that any of the photography forum heads were more than respectful with cameras... Good work children.

440Hz

well he didnt really do anything other than capture people who didnt realise they were being captured and didnt want their photo taken - and while everyone on here is very respectful with their camera, the temptation for some candids at an event like this, esp given the theme of the night... just take care was my only point.

melekalikimaka

anyone taking a camera?

Fajitas!

I don't have a choice, will be getting off the train at 9, with camera, tripod, lights and action

Tis gay that it finishes at half 11

melekalikimaka

the city is ours for the taking after:)

Fajitas!

And giving to the poor?

melekalikimaka

LOL
no... all for me

Fajitas!

What a sh*t costume

melekalikimaka

i hope i don't 'spill' a pint on your camera

soccerc

Wouldn't mind dropping in for an hour or so but I only know one poster here and it would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack I suppose.

Do they all love the Clonalkilty pudding down there?

Calina

I won't be there. So bad, sorry. Was supposed to go to an engagement party but am bailing out of that well. Bed and hot water bottle required.

Fajitas!

Oh what a night.



Heh heh....

Nevyn

/me scowls.

Fajitas!

It was worth the chin kickings!

Edit: That should say shin.

melekalikimaka

great costumes

Fajitas!

Oh, and a round of applause for Elven, who won a blow up doll for her costume!

melekalikimaka

mostlycircles took some funny ones of elven with the dino 'massaging her back' i dunno if it was the drink but i found them funny :rolleyes:

Fajitas!

I think there's a few shots of it with my camera too...


Petee possibly got them!

melekalikimaka

and why arent they up???

Fajitas!

Ask Petee!

(Oh, right, it was the dino with my camera, and Petee has shots on his camera phone! I hope)

melekalikimaka

ah yea i remember that, sorta...

somegreat costumes... onlyaboards party would someone come up to be and say how authentic my Link, zelda costume was...and then proceed to ask...where was my triforce symbol

Oriel

Everybody turn up and take as many photos of 440Hz as you can, then post them all up on here. She'd appreciate that. Honest.

/edit - b'ah it was last night.

Everybody everywhere loves Clonakilty pudding!

Sineadw, I hope you enjoyed the weekend.
Clonakilty District received Failte Ireland’s Best Emerging Tourism Destination Award 2007 in The European Destinations of Excellence competitition.

With regard to taking photos at this event, sure most people will be in costume.

gandalf

The severe lack of photos is disappointing to say the least at this stage !!!

On the other hand bloody good night out !!

I might have gotten some blurry, out of focus shots with your camera, my motor abilities were impaired at that stage of the night.

Picture of said dinosaur, and a random pic of the night.

Twas nice to meet you all too!

Calina

now I feel bad that I didn't make the effort to drag myself in to see you all dressed up...

Well it was more a happy coincidence I was up in dublin for the weekend, so decided to extend the visit and go to the beers!

Thats pretty much all the shots! Kai was off somewhere, not remembering what he was doing.

Nothing new there eh!

Damn you for not having more shots though. Hopefully the boys had better luck? I warned them about photos so I could see these "outfits"! hehe

The dinosaur prize was donated by my cousin, lizardfudge...

Her name was Camilla and we would have gotten her a nice little tutu to wear if we'd had time.

gandalf

I did things with the dinosaur.

/me hangs head in shame

(was worth it for the look of disgust on elvens face)

elven

It was awful, what was done to Camilla. She'll be traumatised for life now.

Thank gawd she's made of wipe clean pvc.

Dunno if it was because it was halloween, or the full moon, but there was a stranger selection of geeks there than your usual boards beers, possibly myself included mind you :rolleyes:

nods in utter agreement

odonnell

definitely.

the strange folk were out in force, and too many of them seemed all too comfy in their costumes for my liking.

rymus

curses and confound it. Had I known this was on the cards I'd have had my gimp outfit on and brought a can of pledge with me. What shoddy shoddy luck I'm having recently...

It's fancy dress... you can't go dressed as normal!
