Details:

What: Good Friday Photo Adventure
When: Friday April 22nd, 2011
Time: 9:30AM
Where: Starbucks Coffee at 2557 Victoria Park Avenue (central off of DVP and 401)
Bring: Camera gear, tripod, boots for possible muddy conditions.

I am still working on the details, but the basic concept is that we will be shooting waterways and historic mills to the west and north west of the GTA. For example, The Alton mill is one of the stops, also thinking of the Cheltenham brickworks, Limehouse rapids, and others. I will have a more complete list by Monday.

Be prepared for spring conditions.... Like mud, being that its been raining lately. Bring your tripods, and whatever your flavour of camera gear.

We'll most likely find a spot for lunch and/or dinner.

I'll be coming from Ajax, and there is room in my van for passengers. PM me if interested in a ride, or post on the board to arrange.

Since you are coming west, I will likely meet you at the first shooting location.

I can't really say -- probably done around dinner time. Really depends on the group.

Thanks David for organizing the event. The weather wasn't too bad and it was a nice road trip. It was also nice to see some people I have not seen for a while.
