Then at the end of the night it was hoisted up to the side of a building to rest until today.

There's no way I would've been able to make you out either, seemed like everyone and their mother had a DSLR that day.

I did spot a gurl with a Sony but you don't have dyed blue/greenish hair do you?
>> Butterfly !xlgRMYva6s
>>249701
nope, i saw some fatass with a 3/50 using live view and holding the camera right infront of him

RAAAAAAGEEEE
>> Sicko !L3HRY/miC.
>>249704

Haha, I was too busy RAAAAGING to the people using flash when it was a whole crane away...

I use to assume (in my naivety I guess) that if you've got expensive gear (battery grip, L lenses, decent flash with diffuser etc) then you must have some kind of interest in photography to at least learn some basics.

I used a flash while it was about 200m away (onboard) to make a stop sign stand out, im sure it looked stupid but the result was ok.

You going to see it dissapear?
>> Honest So You Dont Have To Be !9UISPtwBPo
Cool shots!

How did I not know about this?

How long is it going to be there for?
>> Sicko !L3HRY/miC.
>>249712

Yeah, just hoping it's not as packed as yesterday. Pretty curious as to how they'll end it.

>>249713

It's going away tonight.

I was in the presspass only area (with no pass obviously) as it came onto castle street, was mayhem as all the press/tv got crushed as the barriers collapsed in.

Hopefully they dont have particually good security now either because i cba to get a pass.
