Centre Island Ferry Fall Schedule

darn, i wanted to go to the next one of these but i have a shoot planned at that time!

I'm sure we'll do this again .

I'm planning to getting there early to explore the other parts of the island; so I will take the 3PM ferry to either Ward's Island or Hanlan's Point and then walk toward the Centre Island Beaches for sunset. We can meet at 2:50PM at the ferry if you want to join me for this.

Alice, is external flash really necessary? I've never done this, interested, and don't have external flash yet.

Not everyone will have to have every item!

For instance, while you are holding your shutter open someone else can fire their flash manually by pressing the test button a few times while holding the flash in their hand...that's how I got the shot at this link:

That's the fun of painting with light with a group.

Unfortunately I won't be able to come as I have a lot of work to do this weekend (so what am I doing here).

Mike is right, you don't have to have every items, one person has the external flash is good enough. We can still do light painting without the external flash.

Mike, hope you can join us next time.

I can't stay too late. 8:00 am meeting. Yuck. So I might wander off early.

Alice where is that video you were talking about?

All you need are these to create the above images:





Sparklers


Laser finger beams led light


Glow sticks


You can get all of the above at Dollarama.

People are free to join and leave the event at anytime.

There's no video, but here's the photo:


Do you think we can still do the iPad one?

The IPad one is pretty complicated. I don't have the right apps for that & I'm not planning on purchasing them because my space is limited.

Turkey Dinner Time has been moved from today to tomorrow for me.

Actually, glow sticks aren't recommended because they don't put out as much light as LED light sources.

Same here. Will join next time. Have fun all.

It doesn't look like this is going to happen, so I'm not going to head down.

The weather forcast finally looks good at this point, so this event is still going. I've changed the meeting time and location in the original post.

We are meeting at the ferry @ 6PM; we will take the 6:15PM ferry to Centre Island and will do Sunset and Light Painting at the Olympic Island.

Took me the whole night to paint this pic! Almost missed the last ferry back to the city .

After 30 minutes of pray, God & Buddha answered my prayer - gave light to the Skydome.

OMG you painted entire Toronto!

Gorgeous, love the red flecks in the water.

Yes, it's a BIG job!!!

Thanks Pam!

those photo like very good, will even be better if your sensor is clean

Someone is jealous that I got lots of nice shots!!!

Beautiful shots Alice.

Thanks!

Great shots Alice! Your new tripod is paying dividends already! You're still leaning to the right a touch though.

@ Alice: You just copied my shots from last visit there? They're all identical... doesn't look like a simple coincidence to me. Missed one though (maybe no wide angle).

lol you're the one who copied my shots and also from those who have their shots post here:
