Canberra photowalk a hit

I took my iphone and a dslr – the iphone was used to take photos and instantly upload them to google+ in an attempt at photojournalism, and the 200+ dslr pictures were taken home and processed in photoshop – 6 hours of walking and nearly the same amount of time processing at home — but I got the most positive comments about my iPhone shots 😉

Thanks to martyO for organising the event, and for treating us n00b photographers like peers 🙂

here’s a few of the photos I took during the walk on the dslr:

Apologies if you got that impression – it was for all formats. I know quite a few pictures have been posted from iPhone and I posted several from Android. Sydney and other cities had loads of people shooting 100% mobile.

Have not seen the weekend sunrise as yet – it was the weather man’s bit so I would not expect it to be very many. Will check.

We will do another walk soon – this time a little further away from the city 🙂

So when I first read about this, back in this thread http://the-riotact.com/calling-all-canberra-photographers/65547 it seemed like this walk was all about mobile phone photography. I’m seeing a whole lot of tripods, dSLR’s and white lenses in these photos though. I’d love to know which (if any) of the photos in the slideshow were taken on a phone – not because I’m trying to be down on mobile photos, but because I’m now just assuming they’re all normal digital camera shots, and I’d love to be surprised!

I declined to indulge, as my phone has a poxy 3 meg camera and no apps.

So did any shots get shown on Weekend Sunrise?

The very tasteful t-shirts … I’m still wearing mine. Fun day and thanks to Martin for organising 🙂

Plus we all got free (and extremely tasteful) t-shirts! And free coffee!

Had a great time and learned a lot, looking forward to the next one for sure.

Wish I’d known it was on… Next time.

such great photos! love the first one.
