Itinerary:

Suitable for Point and Shoot and or DSLR Cameras
Photowalk... Put your skills from our Beginner & DSLR photography events to the test. Join me for a stroll across the foot bridge between Fort Edmonton Park and the Whitemud Equine Centre and learn / practice "how to shoot & pose a simple portrait" while enjoying the evening light, fall colours and river valley surroundings. We'll use each other as subjects and hopefully everyone will get a chance to pose and practice taking pictures. There will be lots of time for discussion and questions during the walk so be prepared to move at a "slower pace than the usual EOC URBAN HIKES" to accommodate the photography. For those unfamiliar with the term...... Photo walk: (Wikipedia) Photowalking is the act of walking with a camera for the main purpose of taking pictures of things that the photographer may find interesting. While related to street photography, photowalking is differentiated by its impetus to photograph things of interest rather than people specifically. Photowalking can also promote physical fitness.

We will head out from the Whitemud park, parking lot.

Meet at 6:30pm for a6:45pm start.

I will be wearing my yellow EOC baseball cap.
