Micro GTG today in Melbourne today!

I had a freak chance encounter with Brandon (Ultraman) today in Melbourne.

How is that we didn't organise anything but just met by accident in this small world they call the planet earth

I guess this must be a first....

Anyway good to see you Brandon

And why not the Esplanade is about the only half decent place in the whole of Western Australia

Actually the GTG today was only about 60 seconds as we were both going places but still it was a pleasant surprise

Fuuny, we met outside a camera and equipment store. We should have asked if we could borrow a camera for some quick shots!

Mama mia. Which camera store? I was at Michaels today around 3pm, drooling on a Leica M9 with Noctilux 50mm...

Yes, thinking about the Leica X1 or Fuji X100. Getting sick of carrying a big bag on trips...
