I don’t know. They usually don’t let me into these fancy affairs. But, as socially awkward as I am, I am happy to go, ’cause these folks do really great work.
They work trying to save preemies and sick babies, and they just have an amazing organization. They organize fund raisers, run marathons, you name it, all in the name of raising some dough for programs to help these kids. Here’s the link for the “about us” page on their website.
Now, as to my presence at their soiree on May 4th. I’m donating some prints for auction, and the invite says “evening wear.” Hmmm. For advice on this, I think I’m gonna call Hobby.
It’s the first event we’ve got going in the Australia tour, and it should kick us off really well. Sydney here we come. Here’s the link for the tour, and they’ve got all the info on remaining spots available, etc.
More tk…
Good luck for the auction – hope the bids will go high!
I heard about this yesterday. That Nikon Guy was talking it up. Good luck down there! Can’t wait to see what you produce.
Hey! Where’s my D4?! Ordred that baby in January and still waiting!
Thats awesome Joe! Can’t wait to see pictures of you in a penguin suit… Maybe you should try it on your next shoot and see if it helps with the model-photog rapport.
Have fun down under, see you soon.
Oh sorry Joe, I thought you had called my name… 😀
Good luck!
If you’re going to Hobby for advice, just remember that he means the black dress shorts, not just any old shorts.
Definitely wear pants.
You’ll be very welcome in Oz Joe. I was excited you were coming and was looking forward to seeing you on the GC. Unfortunately the Saturday price is beyond me so I bought “Sketching Light” to complete my set. Next time come by bus :-). It’s nice to see you helping out those bubs. For most places in Oz “formal dress” means wear a clean T-shirt and closed in sandals after 8pm.
Hey Joe, unfortunately I won’t be able to make it to the east coast to see your presentations, why not drop by Darwin, Northern Australia (The gateway to the outback) for a cuppa? We’d love to have you visit! Cheers, Michael
Can’t wait to spend two days with you in Sydney – Have a great flight!
Hi Joe,
Welcome to Oz!
Any chance you be in Perth between 13-19th May?
Cheers,
H
Hate to tell ya’ Joe, but you might rather call Steve McCurry or John Paul Caponigro for wardrobe advice–no offense to the esteemed Mr. Hobby 🙂
BTW, absolutely LOVE Sketching Light!! Hot Shoe Diaries and Moment it Clicks are great but Sketching Light tops ’em both…no easy feat!
Northern Australia (The gateway to the outback) for a cuppa?
