The Yashica Mat-124G is back. This time with a bit of everything, still learning all the buttons and knobs.
St.Jacob Farmer’s Market, I learned about the local Shrine club from these gentlemen.
Toques and gloves for the winter. I had intended to focus on the man but he was moving too much for my fingers.
Pizza Nova, our Sunday one-stop with 3 mediums pizzas for $15!
Funny graffiti on the fire hydrant. I feel like that when I have 8:30am class and have to trek through the snow.
A neat display outside of a shop in Unionville.
Another perspective of the fiddler. I think we took a shot of it from all the Medium Format cameras and see how differently they all turn out.
Mamiya C330 and
Pentax 645.
A spontaneous snapshot of a fastfood stand. I am a big fan of the checkered table cloth.
Many students come and go without knowing that University of Waterloo has an observatory that is located above the Physics building.
This Wednesday I participated in the monthly public tour and it was a clear night to see the Orion Nebula. Even though it was it was -20degC, there was quite a big crowd to learn a bit about astronomy and look through the telescope. It was a very neat feeling to be standing in the red glow staring into the dark skies.
Party at Unit 504 to celebrate Ludwik, Anthony, and Martin’s birthdays. Despite the snowstorm a lot of people still showed up to the party.
With one half of the apartment for drinking and chatting, the other half holds the Battle of the Bands.
Don’t know where the idea came from but Pat grabbed a pot and metal spoon for his ‘cowbell’. Whenever he is not holding a beer he would go for the pot….
Audience Choice goes to Anthony’s rendition of “Roxanne”.
Pat and Behrouz received the most animated award.
Ludwik jumps in with his OUTDOOR voice!
The ARGO crew doing some obscure/nerdy signs….I won’t go into it.
4am: Actual quote by Martin to the Paramedics…
Someone was having an allergic reaction and fortunately was fine the next day.
After weeks of building, prototyping, debugging, and hair-pulling we were able to drive the ARGO by remote control successfully.
5V-Check. 12V-Check. CCU-Check. AX-Check. Throttle-Check. Left -Check. Right-Check. Brakes-Check. Ignition.
The first time starting up outside. We just pushed the ARGO in between two buildings and told other students to watch out.
There were some hitches, we had limited the speed of the ARGO to avoid any unpleasant consequences.
Steering actuator error! Standby crew goes in for the rescue.
End of the day, we celebrated with coffee and pastries from the C&D!
