Hey guys,

Just some random photos from yesterdays trip.

I learned quite a bit on what I could do better next time around in terms of taking photos.

- Pay attention to framing. Don't put things in the center.
- Bring a flash with a diffuser. (for the really dark places)
- Bring a Gorillapod instead of a tripod (was kind of a burden carrying it around)
- If you know where you're going in advance, research some photos others already took to get some inspiration.

1. Not the greatest shot, but I'd love to come back at night and practise some long exposures.



2. Wish the furnace was not so centered. All the pipes made it hard to align the photo, It's hard to tell what's actually straight.



3. It was hard to get any decent shots in here. My lens just wasn't wide enough.



4. Random shot, kind of boring.



5. The lighting was a bit hard here because of the position of the sun. If I brought my flash I could have filled out the foreground a bit more.



6. This shots not bad, framing is off a bit.



If anybody has anymore tips on what I could improve for next time around I'd love to hear them.

Thanks for looking. Oh and Luke if you're reading this shoot me a msg.

This location is one of the last of its kind in Toronto. Good work.

Hard to believe that place has been closed for almost 50 years.

A great classic spot. A little tip is to try to keep vertical lines straight (in #4) you can always straighten them afterwards with most editing software. What program are you using?




And when you finally disappear, We'll just say you were never here.

Sure, it's good to be critical of your own work, but don't be so hard on yourself - you've got some nice shots!

When I joined this website, everyone wanted to get in but couldn't find a way. It wasn't a few years until it became "accessible". #UERhistory
