Last night I decided to go out and get some night shots of this bridge that is near my house. As I arrived I noticed a few sketchy looking people milling about, but they ended up going on their way, so I set up my tripod and camera. I set my camera to a 30 …

Skateboard Selfie!
I’m taking it back to the old school here with this dorky skateboarding self-portrait I shot yesterday haha. I had 2 flashes set up for this shot. I had one 580ex ii on camera left about the hight of the top stair pointing up and another on camera right about shoulder height. I trigged the camera with …
Calgary North & The Rockies
I shot this photo a couple of days ago when I was out getting a skyline shot. I had been searching for a vantage point from the east side of town looking west and found a 6 or 7 story high parking garage. My first attempt at getting in the garage was unsuccessful, as the stairwell …
Flying High in Calgary

Friendly Squirrels
There are some baby squirrels that live a tree in front of our house and they are super friendly. The other day we noticed our neighbour feeding the babies by hand, so my son Joshua went to go check it out. Amazingly the squirrels were extremely friendly and had no problem eating right out of …
Ridiculously Wide!
I rarely shoot this wide because it looks like all the buildings are falling into each other haha. However, if you want all the buildings in one shot so close, there isn’t much choice. I shot this one in Chinatown in Calgary, Alberta Canada. Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 16-35L @16mm ~ Settings: 1/160th …
A Drivers City
In Calgary you must have car! I think this picture kind of shows that :). I had wanted to take this picture for well over a year now. I used to drive past here over one of those overpasses everyday and I would always want to get this picture, but it wasn’t easy. There is …

Spring in Canmore, Canada
Last weekend I was out in Canmore, Alberta Canada to escape the city for a little bit. On Sunday morning I decided to go for a little “spring” walk and take a look around the town to see if I could get any good pictures. Although it looks more like winter in this picture, it …
A Walk in Chinatown
I was in Chinatown the other day here in Calgary and I took a few street shots. I decided to shoot 35mm just to mix things up a little and force my self to get a little closer to my subjects. I definitely prefer 50 over 30, but it’s fun to get a little closer …
Big & Small
I was kicking around a park in my neighbourhood today with my little buddies and Cammy here decided he needed to take a little walk down these stairs. Some how I like pictures with big staircases in them so I quickly snapped a couple shots :). I couldn’t decide what I liked better, the picture of …
Old Bike in The Snow
Well believe it or not it is snowing in Calgary as I write this, so I figured why not post one last wintery picture haha. This was from a couple of months ago and I hope I don’t see a scene like this for quite a while! Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 50mm 1.4 …
