World Wide Photo Walk - 2011

I was out on Saturday for the World Wide Photo Walk.  On the walk I chose we walked around Whyte Avenue for a couple of hours.  The weather was good, the sights were interesting, and the company was inspiring. There was a large group of us with cameras in hand that headed east.  Here's a few pictures I took on my walk.  Many of the shops had wares for sale on the street so pictures of those were fair game.  Some retailers were not very welcoming of our cameras.  We met together afterwards to share pictures, experiences, and just get to know one another a bit.  It was a very good day!

Photos - World Wide Photo Walk

I participated in the 3rd annual World Wide Photo Walk on Saturday, July 24th. It was a very good experience. This is an opportunity for photographers of all experience levels to get together, take pictures, and share ideas. Forty of us met at Louise McKinney Park, walked through the Shaw Conference Centre, down Jasper Avenue to the Gibson Block then west to the Hotel McDonald taking pictures all the way. What fun! The weather was perfect.
Here's a few pictures from my day. The lily was part of the gardens with the Chinese Pagoda just to the left, the Bison metal sculpture is at the Shaw Conference Centre, the church dome is part of the St. Barbara's Russian Orthodox Cathedral in the Boyle Street area, and the light fixture is on the front of the Gibson Block building (the triangular one on Jasper Avenue & 96 street). I took the background image as well which is dried mud in a parking lot.
