International Blipmeet in Murchison

Today was the biggest Blipmeet we have ever taken part in, with 10 of us meeting at the Red Barn, just outside Murchison, in the South Island.

After breakfast at River Cafe we met with Farmer Girl who took us out to the designated meeting place. We all told our personal stories of how we became blippers and how it has affected our lives. No this was not a religious meeting but a fantastic blipmeet!

Next it was a discussion about lenses (especially long zoom lenses) and so on before all of the cameras came out. A very interested and kind German tourist offered to take a group shot for me with my camera, so here it is.
