Calgary Winter Skyline

by

I posted this picture to my Twitter and personal Facebook Sunday night and got quite a positive response from people. So I thought I’d share it here with you guys too. I took this picture with my HTC One phone! The first attempt at this shot turned out a little blurry, so I looked for …

Big Head in The City

by

Calgary has a lot of public art and this massive head is one of my favourite. You can go inside of it, but you cant get one hand or foot onto it to climb with out a security guard running out to tell you there is no climbing! haha. If your ever in Calgary, it’s …

Monroe Street Bridge, Spokane WA

by

I shot this photo from a gondola ride that takes you under the bridge and over the Spokane River. This bridge looks amazing to me! It was build way back in 1911! Spokane has so much great old architecture, it’s worth a trip there for that reason alone. Camera: Canon 5D & 24-70L @24mm ~ …

Seattle’s Capitol Hill

by

I find pictures like this with lots of little building windows in it looks best big, they seem to have a tendency to look pixelated when viewed so small like this. I was surfing some Seattle posts on WordPress this morning and it started to make me miss the city, so I went through some …

Warm Calgary

by

Winter is in full effect around Calgary these days and it makes it hard for me to want to get out there haha. So I am throwing it back to a time when I would walk outside in a T-shirt and be happy about it ;). I’ll make it out there for some winter shots …

Fall Flare

by

Camera: 5D mark ii & 50mm 1.8 mark i ~ Settings: 1/60th – f/18 – ISO 800 I’m sure it still looks like this in some places in the good ol US of A, but not here in Calgary, Canada haha. I took this picture a couple of months ago. Today I woke up to …

Skyline Camera Phone

by

I shot a photo of the Calgary skyline this summer from the East Village. While I was there I took my phone out shoot a Instagram picture. While taking that picture if thought a picture of my phone taking that picture might be cool haha. I’m a big fan of the BOKEH!, so I rather like …

Selfie in Seattle

by

I think these pictures are close to 2 years old. I was down by the water in Seattle at Piers 62 & 63 taking some pictures. For whatever reason I decided this would be a good opportunity to snap a little Selfie action :). Both of these pictures were shot with a 5D & 24-70L …

Vancouver, BC Canada

by

I was looking at some old pictures on my external hard drive and came across this one. It’s an old picture of Vancouver that I took back in 2009. Pictures like this make me miss Vancouver and the ocean. I always say that if Calgary was in the Pacific North West it would be awesome! I …

New Car!

by

I picked up a new car yesterday! 2014 BMW X3! Oh man, what an upgrade from my old 2011 BMW X3 haha ;). At first I was going to go to a parking garage with a glass building behind it and shoot off camera flash, but I was in this neighbourhood so I thought I’d …

City Park View

by

I shot this picture from my favourite park in the city. It’s called Princes Island Park and it is right downtown in Calgary (well uptown really). In the winter time this pond is frozen and lit up for ice skating. I’ll go down there this winter and get some pictures of people skating. The thing …

Big Zoom (Sigma 50-500mm)

by

Let me start off by saying this is not a full in-depth review of the Sigma 50-500mm f/4.5 -6.3 APO DG OS HSM zoom, but rather a quick look. The other night I was out shooting some skyline shots from a good distance from downtown and I thought this might be a good opportunity to …
