I'll make this one my first TPMG photo walk, looking forward to this

I only have a Tamron 17-50 2.8 and Nikon 50 1.4, what do you guys suggest is better for this?


Those two lenses will provide you with ample opportunity to get some great shots.

My zombie nurse image got picked up by Reddit this past weekend, there's a quick way to boost your flickr hits I tell ya, and in this Reddit ZILF thread, I'll leave you to sort out the acronym, there's a link to Zombie Erotica Fan Fiction which is not at all safe for work but holy crap is it funny in a very sick twisted way.

Only a handful of days away... I've got a 70-200 Mk II booked! Woohoo!

2PM Saturday, October 22nd just inside the South Gate of Trinity Bellwoods Park on Queen St. West

For some reason I can't edit the first post to add the exact meeting place the way we could when it was in the ad hoc section. Anyway, Exact meeting location is on the south side of the park along Queen St. There is a set of gates pretty much across from Strachan Ave which is perpendicular to the gate. Go through those gates, we'll be just inside them. To spot me I will have a grey Crumpler bag with the orange TPMG luggage tag attached.

I hope I can make it.
Just found out my sister-in-law is expecting so the family is going to be celebrating that afternoon (dim sum). So I just may not make photographing the undead due to the unborn. Delicious irony (and dim sum).

I might see you on the zombie route then Chris. If not have a good shoot, enjoy the lens!

Great shot! That was a really fun shoot today; thanks for setting it up Chris!

Just got home from that dinner I had to leave the shoot early for. Did my first pass of the photos but will get the rest of the processing done tomorrow and post some favs.

Thanks for organising it Chris - I couldn' find you near the tennis courts after the walk started. Lost Berge at that time too. (hey have a great move to Van Berge. Nice meeting you and give PotatoEye a big sloppy kiss for uh, for Chris). I headed straight for Spadina where the sidewalks were a bit wider. I really felt the need for a better focusing camera than my 30D. Even in al servo mode it didn't track enough of the slow moving zombies.

I got the rest of mine on Flickr finally; haven't had a chance to do any photography in Vancouver yet but will get out there as soon as I can. Just been doing some impromptu photos with my iPhone which are good, but not SLR quality :)
