The weather forecasters were all wrong about the weekend, and this time it was in our favour — it didn’t rain! In fact, it didn’t really rain until today, which is fine because it’s Monday and most of us are working.
The fact that the TTC was on strike didn’t seem to deter people from getting out and about over the weekend. Motor vehicle traffic was heavier, as expected, but there were plenty of people around town. I was barely at home so the stories and photos from the second half of the weekend will have to wait a little while, but here’s a little preview of the literally HUNDREDS of photos I took (700+ yesterday ALONE!):
Saturday night was a Ta-Ta-For-Now party at a restaurant/lounge on Yonge Street for a quartet of CS friends leaving for adventures further afield:
For the last week or so, my shutter has been sticking but it wasn’t affecting my photos. Now it is! But only on the longer-exposure or wider aperture shots, for some reason. The photo above is of the four people we threw the party for, and I liked this sticky-shutter accidental double exposure shot more than the normal one.
On Sunday I went to Dundas Square for International Dance Day, where our very own Neesa was performing the zombie dance from Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”. The weather was fantastic, and we stayed all day in the square. I was in shooting heaven (I love photographing dance), with plenty of room to move around (unlike bigger events with barricades and 10x more photogs):
Here’s a short clip of the audience (you can see five of our group in this clip) learning the zombie dance.
It was a great weekend! More to come!
