I'm up in Yorkshire to do the Yorkshire 3 peaks in a few weeks. Thinking to head up a few days early and capture the ribblehead viaduct under the nights sky and/or sunrise (4:40am). Sunset doesn't look well paced for the viaduct but sunrise is almsot perfectly perpendicular to it. I'll almost certainly do it, but just owdnefing if anyone else was stupid enough to join me? Always better to do these kinds of things with others. Looking at Monday 27th June.

Attention transport geeks!

I shall be visiting Birkenhead for this event, would anyone like to join me? I've created a cities entry for Birkenhead which gives a flavour of its photographic potential. I've also taken advantage of cheap Sunday rates to book an overnight stay at the Premier Inn Albert Dock and spend Monday photographing in Liverpool.

Date: Sunday 2nd October 2022
Time: 10.00am - 4.00pm
Event: The 23rd Annual Wirral Bus & Tram Show

Split over three showgrounds at Woodside, Shore Road & Taylor Street at Wirral Transport Museum - what makes this event unique is that all three showgrounds are connected by a working heritage tramway.
Vintage Buses will be running lots of free services to various picturesque towns and villages around the Wirral Peninsula. Tram rides cost £5.00 per adult & £3.00 per child and are valid all day, cash only.

On the showgrounds will be a huge number of Buses, Vintage Cars, Military Vehicles, Emergency Vehicles, Classic Motorbikes as well as other transport related vehicles.

Hey UK, and those living only just the other side of the channel, Dyxumers. July is almost over and before long we'll be heading into wintery weather again and asking why didn't we have a 2023 DM???

Well why not. The Oxford meet last year was really great (although oddly features in the Themed Views thread and not on the Meetings list ) and although we weren't joined by our friends from Belgium and The Netherlands that time they might be persuaded to join us again (thinking London museums and Greenwich ).

Let's start the discussion about where, and when and who. Much as I enjoy the challenges, the competitions and the vast variety of threads, not to mention the help and the information and, I could go on, Dyxum Meets are my favourite Dyxum thing. Surely I'm not alone in saying this.

Over to you...............

I have Wednesday to Friday off work each week. For a weekend day I’d have to book a day of holiday.

Bump! Anyone else expressing an interest in spending quality time with fellow enthusiasts to explore a location, take some amazing images (by watching what the others do ), sample the local refreshments and compare megapixels, f-stops, camera straps and bags and anything and everything else.

I think that about covers it. FWIW I can probably make it anytime with sufficient notice and prepared to travel a reasonable distance. I enjoyed my overnight in Oxford last year and had a very pleasant drink and meal with new, and old faces the evening before.
