It was a really good weekend. Met a lot of new people & had strangers say nice things about my photo's. Even sold one!! Meeting up for the drink on Saturday Evening was a great way to end the day.

A very enjoyable weekend, great meeting everyone and the drinks on Saturday where very agreeable. Who would have believed the weather today? I too managed to sell one of my framed photos today.

Well done Darren! I had a great awl weekend, good to put faces to names too. Would you believe I even got some sun today :eek: and even more shockingly I sold three photo's.

Great fun alright, no sales and sooooooo tired. I wish I was still asleep. The time really flies by on the green alright. It was all over before we knew it.

It was a great weekend. Loads of people had nice comments. I managed to sell three photos which was nice. It was interesting seeing the different styles of photography. What was actually really nice was hearing people comment as they walked by and seeing what pictures people seemed to like more. I had one of duck eggs in a basket and it was definitely the favourite by virtually everyone. I have come to the conclusion though that photos do not sell as well as paintings.

Great weekend. The time flew and I was amazed at which photos people liked. Sold two, one of which I hadnt planned on including at all until my girlfriend picked it out of a pile of prints and said I should display it so it just goes to show a photographer cant have an unbiased opinion of their own photos.

I learned lots, but isnt that what the first time is for. I need a better way to hang my photos, string cable ties and hooks took way too long to set up. Second more people stoped and looked when I didnt display a price.

I'm looking forward to next year already :-)

Aye, I learned loads from the experience. And both days, I was shocked when I looked at my watch and saw it was 2 already. I think that says most about how great the weekend was. And to think, at one point I was thinking of bringing a book with me as well. No need. Great crowd, great conversations.

I also loved it. My system for hanging my pictures was a complete disaster lol and as I was so disorganised the on Sat I spent most of it either puting the pictures up, or sorting out more of them so I could exchange them for better ones or rearranging them lol I'm a disaster

I do regret not having enough time to go around and speak to the all the boardsies but on sunday I was exhausted (fell asleep when I got home and woke up after midnight and did not sleep again lol) so keft falling asleep in my chair

I'll be more organised next year

Started not too good on Saturday, as I got my prints only at 13:00 and then had to put them into my frames on the street (and reallizing that some of my pictures didn't fit to the frames I bought.). Didn't had anything to hang them on, so I had to borrow some mesh from kjt (I think it was him, not being very good with names). After I finally had all of them hanging they were all over the place and it really looked like a disaster.

Sunday got much better. The pictures were still hanging all over the place, but despite that I still sold 2 (1 was actually a reward for a blackberry I found, but a sale is a sale).

So overall I enjoyed it, meet some new people and some old ones and put faces to names (most of which I have already forgotten), but need to get more organized for next year.
