I got a email (posted below)from Richard White, a Mansfield based LF photographer of note looking for interest in a mid year LF gathering.
If your interested just email Richard using - richard AT richardwhite.com.au expressing your interest.
Large Format Gathering - a no charge event
For some years now I have wanted to get those photographers who either do, or maybe are interested in, photographing with a large format camera. In fact I had the idea to run something the same year that Ellie Young from Gold Street Studios did. Just prior to it being announced we agreed to combine forces and let her take the mantle so to speak.
That gathering has been running quite successfully for a few years now. However I am proposing a mid term gathering for no charge in March in Beechworth, north East Victoria. It will only work if we get the numbers. All I need to know is how many would be interested and once I know that I will organize a venue to stay. The only charge will be your accommodation and the food you eat.
I am hoping to have it as an informal get together, where we can do photography, talk photography, look at photography, help those who maybe interested in large format and have a jolly good time. My proposed date is March 2 & 3 or even March 1,2 & 3 for those who may want to indulge a little longer. Please let me know if you are interested.
