Talk:Project grants/2015 Wimbledon tournament

Discussion

Thank you for your grant application, I will notify the grants committee. Richard Nevell (WMUK) (talk) 12:36, 22 May 2015 (BST)

Support this application based on high impact to cost ratio and David's previous track record. David, if it would be useful I'd be happy to lend you a Canon 100-400mm, 4.5-5.6 L IS lens. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 14:24, 24 May 2015 (BST)

Thanks Michael. Yes, the 100-400mm lens might come in handy for the extra reach. I don't suppose the birding lens you were salivating over will arrive in time? ;-) Diliff (talk) 17:17, 24 May 2015 (BST)

Unfortunately not :( --MichaelMaggs (talk) 17:19, 24 May 2015 (BST)

This seems to be quite a simple one to me, and based on your past record, I'm happy to give my support. Good luck. CT Cooper · talk 14:47, 26 May 2015 (BST)

Ditto, the office can confirm exact funds (whether the maximum you list or not) but I'd hope we can support. If there's scope for time sensitive work (getting images of people released at points it'd be most useful) that'd be great. Obviously the closer to your 'best case' the better! Cheers!

Thanks guys. Sjgknight, Can you clarify what you mean by 'getting images of people released at points it'd be most useful'? I'm a bit confused by that sentence. Diliff (talk) 18:07, 26 May 2015 (BST)

Sorry, multitasking. I just mean that there might be benefit to considering getting some images up fairly fast in this case (while they're still 'hot' from the competition) to potentially maximise exposure. Minor suggestion :-) 19:48, 26 May 2015 (BST)
