Congratulations to the Three Breastketeers — Courtenay, Michelle and Lana who participated in the Weekend to End Breast Cancer 60km walk this weekend. You ladies definitely rock!
Also a shout-out to all the men who braved the event. Many sported pink; some wore skirts and a few even died their beards pink in support.
Great job all. Let’s hope they are as efficient as spending the gazillions of dollars raised as they are at raising it.
Cheers!
A sampling of photos from the last Saturday of Stampede 2009.
We had a lot of fun last night taking long-exposure photos of the rides at the Calgary Stampede.
These have only minor adjustments such as lighting and/or cropping, otherwise, they are as shot. I hope this motivates you to get out there and try some night photography of your own.
