The last 5 days or so have been very busy for both of us. Chris just finished another set of nights and is now off for 5 days. I attended a small flash workshop at Algonquin College last weekend which ran all day Saturday and Sunday. We were staying in the motorhome at the time, so that meant a trip into Ottawa and back every day, a distance of about 80 km.
The photography workshop was given by Ray Pilon. He is an excellent instructor with a diverse professional photography background. Check out his web site at http://raypilon.com/. We were a small group, so we all learned lots and received lots of one on one instruction. I particularly enjoyed learning how to setup and use mulitple wireless flashes for portrait photography.
We still have lots of running around to do this week before we leave on Oct 30th. Temps have warmed up the past few days so we aren't using as much propane at night to heat our motorhome. I called a local propane distributor yesterday morning because we were running low. They will not deliver to a motorhome. In fact, they are not even allowed to fill a motorhome from their truck. Apparently, the law has changed after the propane explosion in Toronto this past summer. Anyway, we should have enough to last us until we pack up for points south.
A couple of photographs for you that we taken recently. Geese were taken at Remic Rapids using my new 100mm-400mm lens on a monopod. I thought this one is quite funny. Can anyone come up with a good caption for it? If so, please post in the comments of this post. The river shot was taken on the way home from Hanover last week.
