Because Saturday maybe warm and sunny I thought it might be interesting to revive and revise The Critical Eye

Newbies are welcome. We don't bite, at least when were drinking beer. :)

From 4 pm until sunset we will be doing some street photography. For those that want it there will be instruction on the topic of how to read the light on the street (how to expose your shots).

At sunset we will retire to a drinking establishment where any brave souls that want can show their images with the aim of having some constructive criticism from the group. The images should be from a previous shoot (not taken that day) and can be presented on a laptop, tablet or printed.

Location: Leaving 4:10pm from the Starbucks on the NW corner of Richmond and Spadina.
Route and more details including my cell #

I haven't yet booked a location for beer but either the Cadillac or the Rhino (east end of Parkdale)

March 3rd? Should the presented photos be Street photography or any subject matter?

Any type of photograph. I would prefer that the discussion revolve around composition and light rather then some equipment or post processing technique.

The Critical Eye is the name of this event, a state of mind rather then a location.

As I mentioned in my previous posting the where other then downtown has not yet been determined.

Not sure as the weather forecast seems to be vacillating between good and miserable. Which ever way dress warmly as it might be windy.

Standby I will post full location details real soon :!:

Weather is still looking iffy. For street shooting that can make for some interesting shots, so for those of you brave enough I will not be cancelling regardless of wind, rain, snow or sleet. :)

Sorry you can't make it. You should be able to unregister now. I think my mistake as the registration ended a day early.

Thank you Ryan for the wonderful event today..
It was very nice to see lot of new people, I was very interested in the Critique section which happened after the shoot.
It was a learning experience and I enjoyed sharing my photo and hearing what others think about my work.

These are some of the pics which I shot during today's event.
