My schedule says yes. I'll create a new event for this right now, hopefully that will give people more than enough time to respond.

Sounds like a plan.... what about starting on Queen West (can mix both strobes/ambient) & making our way down to Ontario Place ? It's free admission & by the time we get there, it'll be dark-ish...?
...just a thought... :)

I think I can make the part up to Ontario place depending on the weather.

I was thinking of something more along the lines of a semi temporary set up as opposed to a walk. Last year we organized a few strobist sessions on Queen/Peter where we had lightstands etc. A lot of people enjoyed it and it really got them into street shooting as well as some practice with strobes.

we would just set up shop on the sidewalk and start talking to people. We did it a few times and never had issue in the location we were shooting.

This time I was thinking of something along the same lines, maybe in Kensington or Queen street, but not necessarily strobe only, it could also just be street shooting. But I was definitely thinking of it along the lines of shooting people as opposed to walking down queen street taking photos of fire hydrants and artistic pop cans.

The 24th would be perfect! I'm looking for an informal event like this to just start out with TPMG. I couldn't make it to any outher outings so far because of school :(

So, is the middle registration slot for Friday the 24th??

I'm going to create a new event thread for friday night just as to not confuse anyone. This one is a week old now. Look for it in a few minutes.
