Details:

What: Streetshooting @ Yonge/Dundas Square
When: Sat. Mar 06, 2010
Time: 4PM
Where: Yonge/Dundas Square
Bring: Anything you want. It'll be a photowalk so tripods might not be as ideal.

Please register if you are planning to come. You can PM me for my number. Let me know if you want to join us later. I'll be shooting until around 8pm.

Photowalk: http://maps.google.ca/maps/ms?hl=en&ie= ... 38581&z=15

It's been awhile since I've hosted one.. been hibernating at school. The last one was back in January! Anyway, I plan to shoot a lot more now that spring is just at our doorstep!

Ah, here we go again! :D

I'd totally join you if I didn't already have plans, and the weather is getting much easier to walk around in unlike back in late Dec/Early Jan!

Hey eric, what speed film are you going to be using? I just metered outside and 400 might be a little fast, but I'm wondering if the light sun will be tamed enough by 4 to use it or whether I should get some 160.

Meet up is at Dundas Square. In the area around the big screen. Look for the group of photographers. I'm leaving soon. PM me for my number in the next 5 minutes. I will wait for 15 minutes, then we leave.

i hope to see you all next time! street photography is one of my favorite genres of photography and too bad i couldn't join in on the fun!

take care,
- match stick

(disclaimer: i don't mean to thread jack with the photos just proving that i was shooting with you all in spirit haha! :lol: )

My roll of 35mm wouldn't rewind and now it's trashed. My 120 had no problems fortunately so I'll be taking a trip to DC tomorrow for developing.

.. oh man, no good :(

Finished developing my T-Max tonight and it looks like it's ok. They're flattening at the moment.

My roll of Portra 400VC still has 10 shots left, so I won't be taking that in along with the roll of Ektar 100 until it's done.
