Toronto Podcamp 2011:Strobists on the Move I

Well, about a week or so ago there was this huge gathering of geeks, nerds, broadcasters, podcasters, social media gurus, social media mavens, you name it they were there. Why do you ask? Well to learn about all the new stuff coming out, how to do their blogs/twitter accounts/other social media sites better. What was I doing there? Taking pictures of course. The Toronto Strobist Group got together, all 8 of us that were willing to risk being banned, and set up in teams and wandered the halls of Ryerson University taking pictures of the attendees. Not just any candid shots. Proper portraits. First was the arrival and set up. Then the doors were opened and we were unleashed on the crowds in retina searing brilliance. Thanks to all the people that agreed to have their picture taken.

Okay, there's a good reason to read instructions and directions. You know where you are going, how to get there, and so on. I didn't. After we got to the Direct Energy building I got separated from the group. I called Fearless Leader to find out where everyone was and I was told they were headed to the GO station. So off to Union Station I go...Wrong station. By the time I got turned around I was told just to show up at the final pub stop, The Brazen Head, and meet them there. Misdirection is fun sometimes, I ended up getting a few shots that they didn't. The pub was nice, we were on the third floor in the "Poet's Pub" which gave some good views of the downtown core when the sun was setting and after when it got dark.

Okay, I have been slacking big time. Well, more like been caught up in a bunch of things and blogging was put on the back burner. Well I will quickly run through a bunch of pictures and try to get caught back up with my uploading and stuff. I have been photographing things, really. So off to more rail lands and other items.
