I'm in if I can get a couple of hours away from the office.

If you can't get away, take something at your office. Anything goes here.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

My M8 came in from Leica NJ yesterday, so I am a confirmed yes.

[Rono1]

I'm in as well. From Miami Beach.

We are now just shy of 200 photographers!

 

Tell your M8s - get them involved!

This may be a stupid question, but is there a specific area of the forum on which to post our Friday masterpieces?

If it is stupid, I'm glad you asked. I was wondering the same thing.

My bet is that come Friday, well probably Saturday after shooting closes, Andreas will have his special thread up and operative for us all to post in.

 

Edit: A curious thought just struck me. This exercise will be 'rolling round the world' much like a tsunami as the 'shooting time' progresses round the world. Some of us will be finishing just as others are starting.

 

Sorry, too much time on my hands today.

It's in hand!

 

Andreas has been working like a trojan behind the scenes and all will be ready.

Bump! 198 signed up, and the 29th is already here in some parts of the world.

And the weather tomorrow, in the UK at least, is meant to be dreadful.

UPDATE:

 

199 photographers, 31 countries... One Leica Day.

 

Good light and good luck to all those taking part. By the weekend Andreas will have a new gallery in operation, with a map facility to "place" your photo wherever you took it in the world. You will have space to write comments and a detailed description. There will also be a Paypal button to press to donate directly to the Disabled Photographers' Society. There will be full instructions on the gallery. UK photographers are encouraged to send a cheque with a copy of the Gift Aid form and a covering letter - again, all will be provided for you to download and use.

 

 

Thanks to all who have said they would participate, and donate. Now get shooting!

 

Regards,

 

Bill

Can I still take part? The 29th is more than one hour away here and we'll be 200...

[redfalo]

Great idea, can I still take part? Only 9 minutes late...

[bill]

Gentlemen, you may!

 

Regards,

And remember a day lasts for 24 hours, not just 1/250 of a second!

 

Bill, is there anyway we'd be able to get some feedback about how much money was raised for the charity? I'm sure that would help wrt donations for any future 'adventures'.

Nothing more than an idle bump, my donation will go elsewhere for something close to me. 8 minutes to the kick off EST. Here's hoping for a totally blue sky and no clouds or a blizzard (that determines where I go in the morning).

 

Murphy's Law says you'll see something different.

Mike here in South Africa, I'm onboard, well done for the effort guys!

[caloso]

Im in because it is only 10:07 pm 2/28 here in the SF bay area.
