I will look out for you at around 9:30-9:45 at the Redpath Sugar Museum.

Less than a week to go! Is there anybody around here that still has the capacity to do a mass PM to the Toronto group as a reminder?

Uh, that would be me. Been kinda busy with a newborn...

I mass PM'd a reminder, and for some reason mass-PMs are stripped of all tags and formatting, so I hope people will copy-paste the URL to this thread and join up! Have fun folks...

Hello, I'm a recipient of the mass-mailing. Congrats on yours, panoguy! I'm also dealing with a newborn (May 1) and won't be able to attend.

Thanks for the invite nonetheless. I seem to have dropped out of Pentaxforums six months ago or more during a busy period and essentially haven't gotten unbusy since. I will add though that that K30 looks like a winner. If they'd released that in '08 or '09 when I was still earning investment bank money I'd have bought one.

Thanks for sending out the reminder. Hopefully we'll see you again in a few years when the kids are old enough to tag along...

Thanks Steinback, Clicker, & Mike7fa. It was great to see you all today!


So what did this sign really mean?


See you all in the next meet-up!
I'll post photos soon! I just need to sleep to cope with all the walking we did today.

I can't seem to play video....it says "not available in your country"
we are in the same country right?

[Steinback]

I get a notice that your video is blocked because it contains content from the Union of European Football Associations. I can't imagine what unless somebody is wearing a shirt with a team logo on it or you added a sound track. I won't have anything up before tomorrow night, but it was a fun meet.

So that's what UEFA meant. Video plays now, thanks for sharing Clicker!
I agree Doors Open Toronto meet was fun.
Cheers Steinback!

here's your drink

[mike7fa]

As I was saying to Stenbeck and CHKSH during lunch yesterday. Clicker has the enviable talent of being able to chat to all the women he saw on this outing, aim his lens and they smile back at him. The running-away figure in the last of his photos is what happens when I attempt candid street photography. I think I'll stick with machinery and buildings. Sorry I had to leave early to fit my frame into a tiny Go-Cart with my 5 year old granddaughter urging me to "go faster grandad". I emerged crippled and bruised-but it was worth seeing her happy face.
Great to see you guys. Will post a few of the Doors Open-Redpath and area pics later today. ,

[CHKSH]

It was great to see you Mike, hopefully we'll get to shoot in your hometown sometime soon.
So here's my first batch from the 1st STOP: Redpath Museum

Because of this museum, I now know that Redpath is actually a person.


walking in


like Chernobyl?


self portrait


like in the Death Star


sweet drive


free cookies!


Austine Powers must have been the delivery guy


the beaten path


so this is where all the raw sugar is stored.
They say it fills up to where the barricade is, so from this picture I say Toronto is low on sugar Panic!



I wonder if the drivers here get diabetes from inhaling sugar


Going inside the museum

How a single granule of sugar looks like. Yes this is an actual granule


Most awesome sugar packet collection I've ever seen.






delivery trucks




where the cargo ships unload raw sugar


we need to go back here and shoot when a boat is actually unloading


waterworks




all dogs go to heaven
