SKphoto

The startup to Saturday’s Worldwide Photowalk. I had a blast, I took only a few photos; fewer still that I liked. I met some VERY enthusiastic people, which was great because I will just feed off of others’ excitement – trying to better my own photography skills – while trying to help others along the way (as I was helped when I started out).

For those interested, we’ve started a Flickr group for the walk, which is actually part of something big.

See, the Ottawa walk was only one of 900 walks worldwide – with over 30,000 participants – likely the largest world-wide photo event to ever take place (Excluding Britney going to buy a late).

Now, I don’t want to be a whistle-blower, but another (Read: Vancouver)photowalk in Canada didn’t seem to take it to heart – they just sat on the beach with models and beautiful light. I’m not sayin’ they were cheating (they were)but sipping mojito’s with babes professional models isn’t a photowalk – it’s a Flickr meetup. Get it right people!

PS – the title of this post was the worldwide hashtag for the photowalk – you know, on Twitter?
