SpecialK,
I always enjoy your chalk festival reports. It must be so interesting to be there.

I shot these with my A1, 50 1.8, and 12mm ext tube on Ilford HP5 and developed it myself.

A walk around the neighborhood on Fourth of July with the 6D and new-to-me 50mm STM.

Kaiser Manhattan.

In front of a sports bar.

Why recently-placed rocks in a park field?

ISO 6400 with some Elements noise reduction.

ISO 6400. I should probably use some noise reduction, but I kind of like it.

Magician at the dragon boat races...

Finding an assistant who works for a dollar is a good trick.

Making money from burning paper is handy.

Disappearing silk...

Adjusting another assistant.

She only had to blow on the book...

She got no money :-(

Queen Mary and Russian Scorpion submarine.

Next door is the dome that used to house the Spruce Goose airplane. Now a cruise ship terminal and sometimes exhibit hall/soundstage.

Part of the "story".

Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh.

It was a troop transport during WWII. During one trip it carried over 16,000 troops - about 4 times its design capacity - and still a record.

Waiting for various tours.

The Queen's Salon.

The square ports opened up to project movies.

Long Beach marina.

Radio room.

Bridge.

The boy steals the shot from Winston Churchill.

RMS = Royal Mail Ship.

The captain's rose bowl given by the British insurance agency to the Cunard Line in 1936.

Cutaway model. It might be of the Titanic as both models were on display.

Queen Mary model.

Audrey Hepburn.

Liberace.

Laurel and Hardy.

Once the King of England and an American divorcee...here, Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

Currently shooting the Para Pan Am, they're a lively group and like the Pan Games, all Gold medallists get automatic entry into Rio's Olympic arena 2016 ...hope to be there too

Toronto not only hosted the largest Pan Am Games so far but also the same for the Para Pan Am!
