[Matsuda]

Hi Everyone,

Its time we did a photowalk again! Last time a group of us hit Granville Island for some shooting and learnin'. This time lets tackle the night! Here is what I have proposed:

Date: August 27th, 2010
Time: 7:00pm
Location: False Creek - Atheletes Village, Science World and surrounding area, possibly downtown - Coal Harbor/Convention Center area.
Meetup: Outside Science World front entrance

There's quite a variety of things to shoot in that area and I know a few sketchy places where there's some kick ass graffiti. YAY SKETCHY ALLEY'S WITH HOMELESS PEOPLE!

I also have a laptop skin that I'm going to randomly give away to one of the attendees. This one specifically:

http://www.surfacecollective.com/laptop-decals/griffin-cmdo/119/13/

So if you're interested in doing some night photography, come on out!

I can probably bring an extra one for you Inaii

[Inaii]

If you could that would be amazing :) Raid3n will be joining as well, so we'll take turns with the camera. If not, I can use the surrounding objects as tripods like I did when I went to stanley park at 4am :D

Hi everyone, I will go if it is not pouring rain. Will I be the only Minolta/Alpha shooter? How much equipment are you guys bringing? I'm thinking 85mm f/1.4 G, 17-50 f/2.8, 58 Flash, 70-200 f/2.8, maybe a tripod.

I'm only going to be shooting with one lens, my 18-50 f/2.8. If you guys have a flashlight, I recommend bringing that too.

[gars]

I'll see if my friend wants to come... he's a Sony shooter (A300 I think)

[Supafly]

I will possibly join you guys...providing it doesnt pour. I will most likely have a buddy join me too.

[Supafly]

It also looks like its gonna be dumping out....raining pretty hard in ricemond atm...

[Matsuda]

weather is supposed to clearing up this afternoon, have faith!

[Senna4ever]

Boo~! It's pouring here right now.

I should be free after 9 or 10pm, so if any of you guys are still out there tonight, I can meet up for a little while.

[Nintensity]

I'm down. I'll bring out my setup! I want to learn from you guys!

Even though the nasty weather, should we still meet up? Rain or shine?

[Inaii]

I may be out :( have to go to north van, look at a suite and my best friend might be coming out tonight instead of tomorrow morning. He's not the walk around and photograph stuff type I don't think.

I love this shot! if that construction on the left of the globe wasn't there, it would actually look SICK! i love the color in the sky... kinda funny, my buildings turned all kinda yellow-ish, whereas your buildings had a red-ish tint to it.



Overall, GJ man! It was nice meeting you all! :P

[saiko]

Don't mean to impose, but are those images edited or straight from the memory card?

[gars]

some have a bit of editing...

first one, i boosted saturation a little, and had to add a little fill light to get the detail of the middle of the flower, for example...

the others were just a little bit of curves to bring out detail and stuff...

i think i left the 2nd picture as is...
