Vievetrick

Thanks.

You are off by almost 3 times the focal length. All from DA200mmF2.8. I am used to long lens as a birdie shooter.

hehe He meant DA 200mm f2.8

Nice photos, nice color too

I was too tired to go after the AGO

oh well next year

great shots! Where were you standing? I was on Queen St outside the Eaton Centre. How early did you get there? We were there 2 hours before it started and got a really good view! I've got some decent photos but I don't want to hijack your great captures (and one of them is being voted on in the PPG)!

How was the AGO? we didn't go because of the line!

I went there on saturday tho, AGO looks great, lots to see inside, but was crowed as you can imagine.
oh see "The new Art Gallery of Ontario" in Post your photo section :P

I went to Art Gallery Saturday only . It was packed and almost impossible to get clear shots. Only a few images were taken. I needed to sneak in with my smallish lens like FA28mm & F50mm. Zenitar 16mm would have been better choice if not for its slightly larger size.

I posted this in Steve Pentax forum

Thanks for the positives.

You did not miss that much of AGO unless you like the crowd which is not the norm in Barrie though. I was a lot north of you at Bloor/Yonge. Had a good time but it was very windy indeed. By all means continue with this thread by posting the images you were happy about. Did you have a separate link for the image that you forwarded to PPG? Love to see images other than mine . I like color as you can see and B&W has never been my forte.

Daniel, I love these three bags columes too, and don't you like the entire washroom made with cloth? :P

ghost · 11-17-2008, 08:33 PM

If you love colour, then you would love this picture! (also in PPG)

this was with my 50-200mm kit lens

roentarre · 11-17-2008, 09:10 PM

This is definitely a fun day for sure! Well done Daniel.
