Thanks,

Scott

I am still amazed by the photos being published each and every day. As usual I am finding things that I missed while on the walk myself, things that although I didn’t capture I am sure glad other people did.

Pioneer Village would be great and as with other people I have talked to about it we think Fall would be the ideal time.

Thanks you for the information on those upcoming events. I am sure those who can attend will thoroughly enjoy them, sadly I can’t attend as I will be out of town, second year in a row, :( .

Once again we would like to thank Mainstreet London and the Downtown Business Association for their support with this event, because of this support the day was a complete success.

I also want to make sure you are aware of an upcoming pair of events that are sure to be popular with local photographers. The Imadon Street Painting Performance Group is presenting two overlapping events starting on Tuesday July 28. The first event, Recreating the Central Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, features nine artists along with 10 or more supporting artists who will help with some of the architectural details. The Sistine Chapel project will be painted on Talbot Street, just north of King, and it runs July 28-August 3. The second event, Expressions in Chalk, is a street painting competition and festival happening Aug. 1-3 on Talbot and Dundas Streets around the John Labatt Centre. Approximately 40 artists will paint their own chalk pastel paintings and compete to win prizes. There will be a family area at Covent Garden Market Square where kids can do some chalk painting and be entertained as well. There will be many opportunities for fun, vibrantly-coloured photos. The event has been popular in past years with photographers of all ages and abilities. We hope to see many people downtown taking photos of these amazing artists and their works! It’s a celebration of our local creative community and we hope to welcome many visitors to these free events.

I twas great you have both you and your daughter out. I think it was a great day and I certainly had the opportunity to meet more new people.

I like that you pointed out that there is much to photograph in our own backyard; I think this is one of the main gains of participating in the photo walks.

Cheers

Thanks very much for helping to organize and co-ordinate the World Wide Photo Walk this past weekend in London. I’ve followed Scott Kelby’s blog for some time and of course knew about the walk that was taking place in many cities. But to have one held in London was great!
My daughter Katherine, and I attended. We are members of MyPhotoClub.com through Stan C. Reade photography and always look for great photo opportunities. The walk pointed out to me that there is much to photograph in our own backyard! The day started off looking like rain, and because of the weather, almost thought of not attending. We put those thoughts out of our minds and are very glad we did.

Thanks again for the great time.
