Itinerary: | |||||||
Fall is here! This is one of my favorite
seasons to photograph nature, with the vibrant
colors and foliage all around. We'll spend this
Saturday morning
leisurely hiking through some of Toronto's parks
and ravines, taking time to enjoy and photograph
the scenery. NOTE: This is NOT a fast hike; please do not sign up if you're looking for a workout! We will be stopping frequently along the way to take pictures and enjoy the scenery
ROUTE:We will roughly follow this route:
Most of the hike will be along paved or gravel trails. It will be mostly flat, except for a moderate hill and a moderate staircase (in Sunnybrook Park). At Edwards Gardens, we shall disperse, and photograph the gardens and surrounding ravine at our convenience. After about 60 to 90 mins, depending on how you're feeling, feel free to either stay back longer, drop out, or hike back with me to the starting point at Lawrence Station. If you decide to stay back or drop out at
Edwards Gardens, the area is well connected to
the TTC.
The event should last 4-5 hrs, and we should be done at Edwards Gardens by 11:30am (or 1pm if you're hiking back to Lawrence Station with me)
Please arrive on time! We will start the hike promptly at 8am. I will put my phone on silent once we begin hiking | |||||||

Notes: | |||||||
You do NOT need any prior experience in
photography
to join this event. The aim is to have a good
time,
and take pictures. I'd recommend bringing a
polarizing filter to overcome any glare from the
sunlight reflecting off the leaves or creek.
