There has been a slight change of plans for today’s photo walk.  I just got word that the gate that was suppose to be open apparently isn’t.  Because of this we have to enter into the park off of Fanshawe Park Road.

Please see the map below.  If you need more details please call 519-871-9052 (Kevin’s cell)

Sorry for any inconvenience.

This is just a reminder that tomorrows installment of the London Photo Walk at Fanshawe Pioneer Village will be taking place at 10:00am SHARP.

Because we have a guide for our walk and are on a tight schedule we will not be able to wait for late comers.

With that said, please arrive between 9:30-9:45am to ensure that you can participate on the walk.

We will also be announcing the winner to the LOLAfest Photo Contest and announcing exciting news about a Full Time sponsors for the London Photo Walk.  You won’t want to miss this.

See you there.

Waiting for Fall

Now that fall has arrived I feel it fit to write all of you a little post on getting the best colours out of your camera this fall. A lot of this is mere point form, and if you would like more information just leave a comment.

1. Get out early! or late depending on your shooting location. The sun rises around 730am and gets to an amazing colour point at about 8am, and rises in ESE. Getting out early will shine a golden light on the trees and the reds and oranges will become more vibrant and the greens will dim down a bit focusing on the fall colours.
2. Bundle Up! – Its fall, and when that sun isn’t up yet it is darn cold!
3. Bring a tri-pod. You will be shooting in the best light of the day, but it is still low light, which requires you to use a tripod for a nice sharp shot. If you plan on shooting HDR(High Dynamic Range) a tri-pod is an absolute must!
4. The Settings. This is often the hardest part for most entry level photographers to get right, and secrectly its the hard part for every photographer because it is always changing. So here is what I do.
