Darn! I was really hoping for some cookies!
Can I do a self-portrait for C? :)

Sounds like fun, I'll try to make it but I got morning plans that might lead to the early afternoon.

Happy Birthday Scott!

I am out of town that day so I am out. Enjoy the day. I am surprised more people are not signed up for this, the results from the colour theme a year or so ago were awesome - the collage type themes can be a lot of fun.

David, Have the leaves turned your way yet? I too am heading north but I thought it might be a tad early for the fall colours - maybe not!

When I was up in Haliburton last weekend, the colours were coming along nicely -- green is still predominant, but reds, oranges and yellow's are starting to appear, especially in the birch tree's.

The Toronto Waterfront Marathon is on Sunday, with the associated road closures. Sounds to me like we're not going to travel anywhere south of Dundas if we want to keep our wits.

Yeah, that area you mentioned, Lori, was where I had originally thought of heading to. We also could possibly head east toward Yonge Street. :)

Thank you for organizing the event, Sue. It was nice to see you all.

'E' was a bit difficult for me but it was an 'e'xcellent opportunity to try shooting people which I normally don't.

Oh, my camera is an E-3..

'F' is for Fun. Looks like plenty was had by all.
Sadly 'C' is for crutches and I only just gave up using crutches for my ankle (avulsion fracture) which I hurt on a TPMG ad hoc event trying to photograph a monarch butterfly (who is hopefully safe and sound in Mexico by now). Still have an aircast on but it has been tough not being out there taking photos.

Thank you Sue for organizing the event - I had fun. I should have some time tomorrow to transfer my pics and post my collage.

Nice work to those who have posted so far.
