Holy crap!
Excuse my language.
This might be one minor benefit to being out of work....except I wouldn't be game to try and go take a look for fear of being told to bugger off.
Anyone else going to go take a look?

hey naomi, i think i might be a groupie, and go as soon as i drop the kids off. then they want to go after school and check it out too. We went down today, the place looks like a bomb hit it, or maybe it will tomorow... i took some photos of it... they said it was fine to come back tomorrow to watch.

OK...I'll probably head on down with the boys in the morning..if the weather is fine. I'll be the one with a camera and 2 small kiddies tagging along...you'll probably hear me saying "Just 5 more minutes for mummy please.."

I dont think you can post straight to the thread without posting to flickr first but I could be wrong.
I so badly want to go take a look, but I am dropping in on the office that may be my new place of employment. Apparently that tends to be more important.
But maybe I will take my camera just in case I can drop by on the way home. How far down the beach is is, and what is the best way to go take a look? Its been a while since I have been to Blackies.

it's right there in front of the surf club... if you can park in the carpark park there, if not, you might have to go around to the other little one and walk towards the wall and walk up the beach..
ill pm you the photo i took if you like, it' s no biggy, but just to get an idea

Wow they are great photos. I just found this site when i was looking to see if Hugh will be at the beach tomorrow also - does anyone know?
Was anyone there today when the school group was there and he came over and chatted with people? He is such a sweetie - hopefully he will be there tomorrow and i will remember the camera and not just the binoculars!

Interesting - looks very much like the Normandy beaches - I can see Wolverine being part of the Normandy invasion.
Interesting tidbit, the unit patches reveal that he's part of the 29th Infantry division, which landed at Omaha Beach on June 6th.

@Naomi - I think Wolverine has a huge following both in the comic book fan base and movie fans. People love to get an inside look at what a film might end up looking like. It's a wonder you haven't had an offer from a magazine or online fanzine or something. Hugh is a very popular actor too so I reckon you'll be ticking up a few more thousand on these shots!

WOW naomi.. you lucky thing, when we were there, anyone with a long lens was being asked to leave, one guy actually had a security gaurd go right through the photos on his camera, and i wasn't game to get mine out. My husband and youngest daughter went back yesterday arvo,and Hugh was out talking to the kids and signing autographs.. i love when celebs take the time to talk to 'the people'..

He said it was because the beach is inclosed and therefore more protected by the brake wall!
They also filmed a fighting scene in the actual surf club!
I just went there and took a few more of the boat scene but i am going back soon to take more so il post them when i'm finished

I had a guy come and tell me not to bother getting my camera out of the bag as it looked like it was big. I said so if I am like this other guy with a little camera with better zoom it is ok and he said yes. So I went and got my little camera.
One guy was asked to get his dog off the beach. I won't write the reply but it did involved words that start with F and C
This was the best I could do this morning.
Will pop back down with the powershot and see what sort of camera that is classed as

Well I took my Canon with my big lens and nobody said anything to me...
Wonder what the problem was.
Anyway I popped back today but he was too busy to come to the crowd (bugger) but his minder came over looking for a lady who had stopped Hughe's car yesterday as he was leaving the set. She had chatted to him and then kissed him on the cheek. Well, he eventually found her and apparently Hugh wanted to have his photo taken with her so when filming is over today the minder was going to come back and get her to meet him properly. Some people have all the luck!!

hi naomi.. he said the reason they were asking people not to take photos (im presuming they mean pro photos with long zooms) was because they aready had an exclusive with one of the magazines, and they didn' t want any problems with it ( the contract) but to be honestly, i don't see the problem, it's a public beach..
top work on not getting caught.. !! :)))))

Ok I have been back yet again the time with the Powershot.
Stood 200 metres north of the don't cross rope and there was some guy with a metal detector. Well Mr MM is actually part of the crew looking out for people down the beach. He put a radio up to his mouth then all of the sudden 2 security guys come toward me at a hurried pace.
I was off over the sand hills. Not sure how the photos turned out but it has been a fun day playing chicken with plastic cops

Are you serious Father Mac!! OMG!!
Maybe the key to my ability to dodge the plastic cops was having my 2 year old with me. I openly had my camera around my neck. I walked past the security guards several times to get an umbrella and food and even chatted to one with my camera in my hand. Guess they thought I would be too busy chasing Ethan to get any serious shots. Luckily for me he was very well behaved.

I just got back! didnt get many good photos however i filmed alot lol!
That lady didnt get to meet him if she was the lady i was standing near his minder came and found one lady from the crowd and tolde her hugh would be over shortly and he never came so she left with the poos lol i persume that was her!
Well Hugh went straight to his trailer today and had no photos done but i have been told alot went wrong on set today so i guessed he just didnt feel like it, but yesterday he spent over two hours with fans so i guess thats better than some celebs.

I stared at the sign today that showed the dates for filming, but can't recall for the life of me whether or not they were filming tomorrow or whether this was the last day of filming at Blacksmiths? Anyone know?

@ Father Mac....WOW...how cool is that!!
@krustaye - I read it too but didn't pay too much attention. I thought tomorrow was a clean up day but if things didn't go as planned today they may have to re-shoot tomorrow. I'd say they'd be out of here by the weekend though.

Yeh, after being chatted I went and read the sign.
11th & 12th were filming and 13th was clean up.
A helicopter took off heading south from Belmont Airport around 4 this afternoon. May have been HJ heading home.
