Style’n on em

by

Check out this cool old guy just style’n on em in the streets of Penticton. I wasn’t out for street photography the day I took this, but I was walking in this guys direction and noticed he had his own cool style going on. I was shooting with my old manual focus Nikkor-H 85mm f/1.8 …

Floating Leaf

by

Just another leaf picture from my last video haha. Not exactly an exciting picture I know, but it does have a calming quality to it. When I shot this photo it was honestly on a whim. I just happened to see it floating there while I was filming some b-roll for my last youtube video …

Test Leaves

by

These are just a couple of the test shots from the youtube video I posted yesterday. I just love the colour of these leaves so much I figured I’d might as well post them. If you didn’t see that video I’ll post it again at the bottom of this post. Camera: Sony a7R & Nikkor-H …

Nikon Nikkor-H 85mm 1.8

by

I recently got my hands on a Nikkor 85mm f/1.8 prime lens. Nikon released this version of the lens in 1964, so it’s definitely got some vintage qualities to it. I love the old look of the lens and it produces good photos. The lens isn’t perfect, but for the low price you’d pay for …

Parking Meter Beauty

by

I was walking down the street in Penticton, British Columbia when I noticed this beautifully painted parking meter. I have no idea if the city sanctioned this painting or not, but it look as if they are ok with it as this parking meter is right in front of city hall. Either way, I love …

Whatcha Doing Duck?

by

I don’t have a clue what this duck is doing. Maybe he was just keeping his beak warm? Anyhow, I saw him sitting there on this rock and I walked over and got incredibly close to him to shoot this photo. I honestly could have reached out and grabbed him if I wanted, but I …

Penticton Japanese Garden

by

I was in Penticton yesterday just walking around taking pictures. I found this beautiful little Japanese garden. I love the colours of the trees and leaves in here. I was so happy to find this place yesterday because I didn’t feel like I had found any good pictures before I found this place. All the …

Mission Creek

by

Places like this are so calming. This is a popular park in Kelowna, but if you get right down to the river you’re really all alone. Sometimes being isolated can be nice, sometimes not. I guess it all depends on how busy life is at the moment. Anyhow, this spot on the creek is nice …

Moody Lake

by

Ok so this lake isn’t called Moody Lake. It’s just the Okanagan Lake here in Kelowna, but moment I shot this photo it there was a definite moody vibe in the air. It was a strange day, because only moments before this it was nice and sunny, but as the clouds moved over the sun …

The Apple Stand

by

This gigantic apple is at the beach near my house. This is actually the back of the apple. They sell ice cream, soda and who knows what else out of the front in the summer time. It’s a pretty cool stand actually and I think it’s a nice unique touch to the beach. People grow …

Out with Juneau

by

My wife Michelle and I were at the park with Juneau yesterday. I had my camera so I figured I’d shoot a few photos of her since it’s been awhile. The last picture in this post is funny to me because I had her sitting on this cliff for a picture. I shot two quick …

My 1st Pentax 67 Photoshoot

by

In early September I had the exciting experience of my first photo shoot using my Pentax 6×7 medium format film camera. I had been waiting on this day for a very long time so my excitement was through the roof. My brother in-law Robert was helping me out by modelling for me. I decided to …
