The link is working fine for me now too, it wasn't earlier.

There will be photographers at the picnic -- many of whom are semi-professional (or at least darned good). If you would like some nice shots of your costume, just ask the people with the cameras!

However, the emphasis of this picnic is to cosplay and have fun. Therefore, you don't have to have your photo taken if you don't want to.


Well... prance around in public in a fancy get-up and you don't have much choice about your photo being taken. :D

Ions considering it's a picnic in a public place unwelcome photographers can be expected to be hit by a phaser blast set on stun.

I spent about 20 minutes using my P&S at the one in 2008.

I've added the attendance feature to this event, as there is no indication as to who will attend. It will help the organizer of this ad-hoc to figure out who is coming.

I don't know only if I can combine it with a longer shoot around the island as it is really not my usual subject. Recommend going if you would like to shoot people and you are normally too shy to ask or you just like cosplay.

weather looks perfect tomorrow so I'll stick around on the island and shoot some night shots again!


edit: for those who are interested, should be able to get a nice silhouette of CN tower from algonquin island according to this.
