I hear they charged only $5 last night from 5-7PM. I've been spending the bulk of my time in the Agrium Centre and between events events wondering the grounds though the last two days have moved onto fast action and video shooting so the Leica has stayed home.
I must have found the lucky horseshoe as with all the rain I have yet to get wet and have walked 15 minutes to catch the train heading to the grounds and back home everyday except one when the bus just happened to arrive when the rains started. Though I think today will be a bus day since showers for most of the day. Unless there is a short break then I'll walk. Last night the same street from the flooded picture a few days ago was still flooded last night.
Yeah, it's been a crazy amount of rain this week. Something that us Calgarians are not used to... I took these shots the day before the midway opened. I was surprised the security guard let me in (with a bit of smooth talking). Do you work down there during Stampede? I will be walking around the grounds later tonight taking pics - probably in the rain. 
My not getting wet ended was just at Coop this morning to get a few groceries, Murphy said "Hey here is a free pancake breakfast". Not one to turn down a free breakfast I got in line then the skies opened up.
Stopped after I finished eating. Luckily until I was 11 I lived in Vancouver area so this rain is 2nd nature though I do prefer the typical sunny Alberta skies. Clothes just out of the dryer I am good to go for the day.
No I don't work down there I just like taking in the various events, and keep the costs down by avoiding all the tempting expensive foods. I stick to the $2 Root Beer barrel place. I will be the Agrium building again this afternoon the Working Cowhorse classic finals and tonight will have Heavy Horse pull. In between I will just shuffle between the buildings.
If you happen by this evening I will be in a grey sweat jacket with yellow trim, bottom row on the far side where you enter opposite the concession. I will have both my Leica ad 1Dx today..

Ah, last day of work before the summer vacation. Tomorrow I leave Stockholm going to the south of Sweden with an S and an M in the bag and I am looking forward to use and learn the S more now than I've had time for so far.
A self portrait (that's a selfie for you under 25) with the MM-246 and an old Zeiss 85/1.4 C/Y.

Duplo might be the best toy ever made. My kids played with theirs for many years.

It's been a real treat these past few pages. Wonderful and inspiring sets everyone! I think I have ~60 pages that I still need to go back through. I've been on a photo hiatus for some months. Not for much longer though! I sold my MP240 a while ago and just purchased the Monochrom 246 yesterday. I think this was the camera I should have bought!!!
I spent an early morning today around town with the Zeiss 35mm 2.8 C Biogon and an orange filter on the MM. I'm astounded by the sheer amount of detail captured and the tonality of the files. I haven't shot above ISO 6400 yet, but I'm pleased as punch with what I've seen so far!
Here are a few from the 246:
