"Street Crawl" Gallery (York Media AQ Project) - 0 views

  •  
    This is a selection of images taken with a 1.3 megapixel cell phone camera for a professional development media teaching course I'm taking. The object was to collect media of a specific location. We were assigned to Church street, which is the heart of Toronto's gay community and other urban locations.

    The purpose of this project was to document a public location using only the technology we have access to. Since my good camera is out of commission, I used my cell phone (which has very limited image capability). Despite my "low tech" gear, I managed to get some decent pictures - mostly due to techniques (cropping and moving the camera to eliminate need for focus) and some minor tweeks in Irfanview, changing colour to B&W and pushing up the contrast. Most of our time was spent walking down Church street which is the heart of Toronto's gay community - thus all the LGBTQ content. We ended our walk in China town - unfortunately only two images (we were tired and it was cold!)
