Furry Costume

man in furry costume wearing Bollé sunglasses at the 2010 Toronto Santa Claus ParadeThe 2010 edition of the annual Toronto Santa Claus Parade was held yesterday and since it has been a two year absence, I decided to check it out with, you guessed it, my wife.

I made what turned out to be a bad decision and headed down to the St. Lawrence Market area (the END of the parade route) and the long wait combined with the cold wind made it a sour photography experience.

I captured Furry Costume, decked out with his Bollé sunglasses, with my 70-300mm lens and all I can say is thank God for image stabilization. I need to find new gloves as my cold finger tips made it a challenge to stabilize the camera body and lens.
