Would anyone be interested in a pre-shoot before hitting Lang? I was thinking of meeting up around noon, and hitting a bunch of mills in the Durham and Port Hope area's.

That sounds like a great idea David, then we can make a whole day of it.

So we could do a quick lunch along the way and a dinner -- which might be more relaxing
OR
A late lunch / early dinner between the events -- which allows people to warm up &/or refuel

What would people prefer?

Everyone is welcome to participate in both or just join in one or the other.

Maureen

The buildings will be lit by candlelight. -- (likely some type of oil lanterns possibly too from back in that time period)

Checkout the website under the photo album there is one image of a summer/August candlelight event showing one of the buildings lit up.

You will want a tripod for longer exposures or boost your ISO to a level for low light shooting.

So are we going to change the time then Maureen? to 12pm meetup - with a Durham / Port Hope mill tour before hand, and then meet the rest of the folks for 5pm at Lang Pioneer Village?

Can you please confirm where the pick up point is?

And if it is the Tim Hortons, can anyone suggest the easiest route there from downtown?
Thanks!

Hello! neighbour
Why don't we go together from Newmarket?
I live right next to the Glenway Golf course.
So, I can pick you up.. say Newmarket Terminal?

Since I will have to work a little bit this weekend ( :cry: ), I'm wondering if we have a meeting point/time at Lang?
I may have to drive there directly.

@Maureen: Do you still have one of those tpmg tags?

Thanks :)
