After Blue Skies, we headed to Carleton Place to check out Aiti's house and to attend "Cousins' Jam" for the first time! This was a very rare event, when all of my siblings and cousins were at the same place at the same time, so it was very special.

We were all there at the same time, but at the time that we took the group photo, the Papel family was still driving up from the US, so I had to photograph Emily and Oscar separately and photoshop them into the group photo. But we were all at the party at the same time, so it is a faithful recreation of this historic event.

This is a photo of all of my sisters and cousins, plus significant others, except for James, who was taking this photo with my camera. Cousins' Jam was a blast, and hopefully we can make it again next year!

UPDATE: Aiti forwarded a photo she took of the group including James, so I have photoshopped him into the picture as well. Finally, we have a complete group photo!

Technical Details: This photo was taken by James with my 5D Mark II + Tamron 28-75 at 28mm, ISO 400, f/8 for 1/320th of a second.

Excellent!  I wondered how you were going to manage, because of the difference
in lighting, but it just looks like Em and Oscar might be standing in the
shadow of one of those big pine trees behind my house. 

Nice job! Next year we must get James in the picture as well.
