I guess this is Good Bye! It has been fun!
Thanks Sue for the space to post the photos I like the most from Guelph. We have a grand amount of fine photographers. For Hillside I always think of this photo, and also Scratched Cornea. I knew she would have great shots of the event.
Thank you PAULA, for that wonderful shout out! Who knew we would be such great friends!? Paceline when I get back?
Have a great last half of summer!
Donna
PS: Blog Guelph will be back September 1.

Blog Guelph: Farewell BG!
Hello BG!
This will be my last post for Blog Guelph and I just wanted to take a moment to thank you readers for supporting the blog, to thank you local photogs for allowing me to blog your work, and to thank you Sue for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this community. Sue has asked that we blitz you with Hillside images and I have chosen to feature Pete Kelly today, partly because he has an amazing way of selflessly photographing music, moreso photographing the effect of experiencing music. I have also selected Pete's work because Pete was one of the first people I met when I entered the local photography scene, he has an easy and open relation with photography, his continued support of BG, and the founding work he did with the Guelph Photography Club, and later his efforts with the Guelph Photographer's Guild, have endeared me to both Pete and his work. I would also like to give a thank you nod to Donna 'Denim' Dobbin for all of her support and encouraging, and for a flickr-friendship that has grown into something I never would have guessed. I have enjoyed my time with Blog Guelph, and I hope that you have enjoyed the posts. I look forward to following the new bloggers with the relaunch September.
Hope you are all having a wonderful day,
Paula

Blog Guelph: Seun Kuti
Did you get to the mighty Hillside Festival this past weekend? If you missed it, I hope you may have experienced a slice of the big juicy pie through these images.
Veteran Hillsiders, such as myself will often ask one another what your "Hillside Moment" was. For some it is the Sunday morning gospel hour, for others it is just sitting and soaking in the people parade. My Hillside Moment can be summed up in this image. Seun Kuti & Egypt 80's performance had people shaking their tail feathers for his entire set. Forty minutes is not nearly long enough for a band that comes all the way from Nigeria. His shekere player mentioned to me that they normally start at midnight and finish just as the sun comes up. Now that is a dance party!
Thank you Hillside! I am still smiling from all the great memories!!
Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Blog Guelph: Mother Mother
Happy Tuesday BG!
I am sad to say, I have never been to the Hillside Music Festival. I have lived here in Guelph since 2002, and love music. Yet, for some reason unknown to me, I have never gone.
This years festival had an amazing line up, and there are some incredible pictures popping up online.
I'd also like to take a moment to thank both Paula and Donna for all their kind words, and constant inspiration. I will miss seeing your posts here.
I think that is about it. Enjoy August, and I will see you all back here in September.

Blog Guelph: Hillside Music Festival - Guelph, Ontario
Hiddy Hoe Hungover Hillside Heads!
Welcome to the other side of summer.
So - we the fine bloggers at Blog Guelph central intend to ply you with Hillside Festival photos for the entire week. Then we're leaving Dodge for the whole month of August to rest our weary bloggy bones.
Sadly when we return September 1, Donna and Paula will have officially retired from BG - but I suspect we'll still be seeing their beautiful images on a regular basis. And we might just have a new photo curator or two to fill their mighty shoes.
Ah yes - life - always changing.
Enjoy the images of the day.
