Protecting memories. |
I'd love it if the iPhone had a viewfinder. Trying to see what's on my screen with the sun setting behind me is a near impossible task (and I don't believe in screen protectors).
The alleys in my neighborhood are so wide, you could almost justify two lane traffic. And many houses are raised, so you see little hidden cement stairs to get to back yards, and the occasional underground garage.
So the test shots for this value village camera I bought turned out much better than expected. You'll be seeing more of this type of photography very soon.
Sometime my wife and I leave the house. It usually involves going somewhere to get something salty, sweet, and bad for us but occasionally it's exercise and this Sunday morning walk got me thinking of photographing up close.
Armed with my Canon S90, I took aim at the details today. I always heard this was a nice camera for macro, and as you can see it does a decent job, though admittedly this is a huuuuge dandelion. This shot is slightly cropped and straightened, then processed in Lightroom 3.
I was up in Edmonton a couple weeks ago, to see my brother Adam and his wife Melanie in the hospital, as they were preparing for the arrival of baby John.
I love skyline shots. They give a real taste for what one can expect when visiting a city. I'm also a big fan of urban architecture. A unique skyline is something I look for when visiting other cities, and one of the things I've always loved about Calgary, ever since I moved here over ten years ago.
Finally got some business cards done up!!

Today I was scheduled to meet the lovely couple to scout their wedding spot at Confederation Park. I had an amazing time, with lots of laughs. I can't wait for their wedding next month.
I've been itching to go shooting outdoors while using off camera flash for awhile. Being a Canadian, I had to wait till May :P
Took a road trip with my wife today. Didn't see too much but I did come across this little gem by accident on our way back.
I was born in Thunder Bay, Ontario, but raised in Alberta. As an Albertan of over twenty years, I still maintain it’s one of the most beautiful parts of the world. Not to mention the incredible diversity of its population.
As an Albertan it’s hard not to be a photographer.
When I’m not shooting people (that is, photographing them), I’m digging through the outback, ghost town hunting.
I enjoy photography, because it’s a means to capturing someone at their best.
