I want to thank everyone who braved the chilly wind to join me on Exposure Therapy’s second Toronto photowalk. There were several last-minute cancellations, but enough people showed up to form a tight, well-rounded group. I hope for greater attendance as the weather swings into spring and more folks are willing to spend prolonged periods outside!
Photowalk details:
Date: February 26, 2023
Location: Brookfield Place, Nathan Phillips Square, Osgoode Hall, and David Pecaut Square.
Theme: Wide-angle photography. “Let’s explore the possibilities of using wide-angle lenses. In this photowalk, you’re challenged to use focal lengths of 35mm or less on full-frame or 24mm or less on APS‑C. Let’s have fun and explore extreme perspectives!”
