Testimonial from Scott our workshop facilitator and long exposure enthusiast:
“I’ve been co-hosting steel wool workshops with Mike at Humber Bay for years, and they’re always an unforgettable experience. With the Toronto skyline and iconic bridge as a backdrop, I guide participants through camera settings and composition while handling the steel wool spinning to create dramatic light trails. No two spins are ever the same, and it’s a creative, high-energy night that combines learning, practice, and a lot of fun.”
