The night was chilly, with the first cold fall wind blowing in, but inside it was hot, hot, HOT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The event was completely sold out, and with good reason.  The creations of local designers ranged from the hot 'n sexy to the high fashion for cooler nights, and everything in between.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Featuring the work of several local designers, and organized by Elayna Bilous, the event was a brilliant success, and is sure to warrant a follow up for next season!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lots of public samples in my proofing area, enter the password 'strippedfashion' to see them all.&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5966766902125623945-7630083578914521906?l=tedsaliphoto.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://tedsaliphoto.blogspot.com/2008/10/stripped-fashion-show.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (The Phantom Hack)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966766902125623945.post-5866197608487623949</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 Oct 2008 02:12:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-10-22T19:12:21.674-07:00</atom:updated><title>Wrapping up and getting Stripped</title><description>&lt;div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tedsali/2939867456/" title="photo sharing"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3183/2939867456_19f6c611ea_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tedsali/2939867456/"&gt;Manitoba Comicon at a glance&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Originally uploaded by &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tedsali/"&gt;ted.sali&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Well, it's been over a week since Comic-con ended, and now the wrap-up begins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A full week of editing resulted in a comprehensive collection for the organizers, as well as this great overview of the whole event.&lt;br /&gt;The wrap-up meeting and party is in a week's time, when I'll be presenting a special gift from tedsaliphoto.ca to the event organizers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't get that much rest these days, though, as I have yet another high profile event happening on Sunday. I've been invited back by the same crew that put on the Blood Candy event to shoot the Stripped Fashion show this Sunday at the Graffiti Gallery. Doors open to the public at 7:30, and many designers will be represented.

There are auctions of art donated by the guests with all the proceeds going to local community programs, and gift passes are given out to those special kids in our communities, and let me just say that by itself makes everything worthwhile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My favorite part of the convention was a conversation I had with an 8 year old boy who was confined to a wheelchair.  He's a great guy, and has a very positive attitude that makes me feel like kind of a baby about my aches and pains.  The best thing about his convention, when he got to meet his heroes for real, he was the one flying, despite what life had dealt to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, the volunteers, I have to give special credit to them.  This event was non-profit and run entirely by volunteers.  I'm talking about people so dedicated to putting on this show for everyone, they take the two weeks off before the convention and spend that whole time helping to pull it together!  Talk about super-heroes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last but not least, the organizers of this program, the board I had the pleasure of working with since July.  You guys know who you are, and you did a magnificent job.  Congratulations, and thanks so much for making me part of your event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that that's all out of the way, on with the content.  Head back over to my &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;proofing area&lt;/span&gt; and enter &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;comicon2008&lt;/span&gt; as the password.

Wow, what a busy, busy day.&lt;br /&gt;I've got hundreds of images to go through, so I figured I'd post a teaser for now.&lt;br /&gt;This shot was taken while wating for the judging on the Costume Contest. The original image was underexposed a couple stops to make it a little darker and more moody, then I really worked it in Lightroom.&lt;br /&gt;Result: instant movie poster.&lt;br /&gt;There will be more posts later, Lots and Lots of posts.
