Please note: I'm not a professional photographer and I'm not pretending to be one. But, I do know what looks good to me, and how to use the camera somewhat competently :D
As explained in the video, the biggest problem (other than not finding any truly dilapidated buildings) was access to take the pictures. Many I had to take from a distance or at an angle that wasn't ideal. In spite of that, I am very happy with what I did get.
Some of the pictures have more post processing than others, mainly to highlight what I thought of as the mood. A few of the ones that slideshow at the end of the video were processed differently, and every photo throughout the video was edited in some way.
I left on the morning of the 14th, and got to Ottawa on the morning of the 15th. My route more or less followed highway 7 all the way, with a lot of weaving back and forth to take sideroads.
The live Q&A was with Matthias Wandel at his house, in his shop.
If you would like to watch a recording of it, here's a link to the video:
