Default CanJam Pictures Up

I have part 1 of the pictures up on Audio Junkies and I should have part 2 up shortly. If enough people want, I can throw together a zip file of all the high resolution images for download and host it.

CanJam 08 Pictures Part 1 [audiojunkies]
CanJam 08 Pictures Part 2 [audiojunkies]

I also wanted to apologize for not being able to listen to nearly as many of the setups as I would have liked, and those I did get to listen to were very brief. I was pressed for time to try and get pictures of everything. The good news is that I ended up taking about 550 pictures at the show. I shoot everything multiple times, so about 200 of those will be posted online. I'll also be going back through the images later today and adding comments/descriptions.

All in all it was a very cool show and thanks to everyone who took part in organizing this for having me.

Cheers!

Thanks for your great photo effort! For those of us who were unable to make the trek to CanJam, the ability to at least see what you guys were looking at (not to mention listen to) gives at least a vicarious feel for what CanJam must have been like.
