You wanna picture…here’s your picture
This friendly guy is a cameraman with Sun News, a national cable broadcaster in Canada. He was annoyed that I took his picture, telling me I was not allowed to, despite being in a public place. After I persisted, he said something along the lines, that if I want a picture, then here's my picture. So, to him, I say thanks for the picture. Now, here's the long winded version:
Can you tell they’re camera shy?
Getting ready to take a shot
This is one of the photos I took at Olympic Plaza in downtown Calgary on Friday, December 9, 2011. I came a couple hours in advance of the 2pm deadline for Occupy Calgary campers to leave. To my surprise, the tents were gone. I found since, the occupiers removed everything overnight, and left behind some signs and a new sculpture.
Merry Christmas in the OP
I found a few pieces of what I assume was a display set here. They were lying separate and I put them together for this photo. This photo can use some fixing. There's some blue in the snow that I need to remove. I tried using a "White Balance" spot fix, but I didn't really have a proper reference point. So, I just need to de-saturate the snow separately. But, I posted it now, because I still like it. It's probably my favorite shot of the day.
