Before Dan showed up, I had a few minutes to start shooting with my new Tokina 11-16mm wide angle. I am looking forward to working more with this lens - I think it's going to be serious fun! Upon reviewing some of my test shots, I noticed that I was being followed by an alien! (See the shadow on the column on the left) I knew I shouldn't have left my tin foil helmet at home!
Dan and I originally had the goal of getting some specific shots of the trains, unfortunately, Edmonton Transportation didn't think to check with us before they changed the LRT schedules. By the time we realized this, we had already stood on a very windy and exposed hillside for 40 minutes and were eager to get to Tim Hortons for a hot chocolate.
Not wanting the evening to be a total loss, we hopped the guard rail on the High Level bridge and got some cool (I think) shots of merging vehicles using slow shutter speeds. We didn't end up doing to much adjusting of our camera's as our extremities were no longer functioning properly. We will definitely be going back to re-shoot this spot on a warmer evening.
