Details:

What: Yonge/Bloor Streetshooting
When: Sat. Nov 26, 2011
Time: 7PM
Where: Northeast corner of Yonge and Bloor (by the RBC staircase)
Bring: Anything you want. It'll be a photowalk so tripods might not be as ideal.

Every last Saturday of the month, I'll be organizing a photowalk at 7pm. Let's see how long I can keep this up... haha. And I apologize for the late times for these shoots. I work 7 days a week... Trying to get my street photography going again.

Let me know what you guys think!

So, does this mean the next one will be New Year's Eve??

I'll likely make some of these, but not all. I don't know yet about Nov. 26.[/u]

The next one won't be New Years Eve. I'll reschedule it to another day for sure. But I plan on continuing these shoots for next year.

I think you should come out for the trail end of the Foodie Event and then we can all go for a walk to burn off the Calories!

It's been changed to Yonge and Bloor. Might be a few minutes late since I have to subway from Dundas.

My ISO upper limit is 1600. There should be enough street light for hand held, shouldn't there ?

I'd be interested but could not firm up to "yes" until the week leading up to the 26th.

I'm definitely up for some street shooting depending on when the foodie event ends.

I will be heading out for this at the end of the foodie event, fear not!

Might be closer to an 8pm timeline. But will connect with you when done.

Sorry for another immediate post but I was wondering if anyone will be using a flash?

I want to try the Bruce Gilden in-your-face style at night in the streets of Toronto (with a digicam) :lol:

If not, I will bring my very discrete and quiet film camera and some film.

lol I don't think I have the balls to pop a flash in front of a stranger, although you do get the best facial expressions =)

If I were walking down the street, minding my own business, and someone popped a flash in my face, I'd consider it a type of assault & might just pop them one in the face...and I don't mean flash. Just sayin'.
Not everyone likes having their picture taken.

As someone once said on a street photography blog "street photography is 80% balls and 20% skills"!!! LOL

But what if I don't have both?

I won't just pop anyone. I will target the gangstaz, bikers and cool looking types. The "characters" as Mr. Gilden likes to call them ... LOL :-)

Those of you who are going to the foodie event before this, please let me know if the event is going past 7pm. I believe at least one of the attendees at the foodie event will have my number. Thanks!

I have Eric's number, I will be at this and helping to host the Foodie event.
So anyone can contact me as well.
The foodie event is scheduled until 5:30pm now, so it is highly unlikely that we will be late for the 7pm rendezvous at Yonge/Bloor.

There is now a possibility I may be working tomorrow. We haven't had confirmation yet, or the hours, but I doubt it would be an evening shift. I will post and remove myself if I am working in the evening.
