Fan Expo 2013 Wrap-up


Happy Tuesday from Prospect.

You can have it your way
So the labour day weekeend has come and gone and here I am at the wrap-up of the Fan Expo 2013 share. It was a great convention and frankly there is no way I could share all the content I gathered through those 4 days. Total attendance is said to be plus 100,000, and at times it felt it.

But simply put, if you dig Scifi or anything from animated series to full blown adventure science fiction or comic adventures, this convention is for you.

Next years is the 20th anniversary and slated for the labour day weekend.

I've included a few of my favourites I didn't share earlier. But don't think I won't be randomly dropping some others in throughout the year, just to spice up the dreary winter months.

BTW, the XPro 1 preformed admirably, without flaw. I stuck the 35mm f1.4 on it and never changed.
What a breeze.

Just wish I could have been on my toes Friday morning (7:30a) when I held the door open at Tims for Laurie Holden, duh.

Enjoy, Derek.

PS: check the captions and please comment if you feel like it.
