The Train Over 10th

by

I was looking for a picture in my files this weekend and came across this picture. I totally forgot I even took it and can’t believe I didn’t rush to share it straight away, because I rather like this shot. It’s a nice view down 10th Street and it’s kind of cool with the train going …

Nikon 50mm 1.8 vs 1.4 Video

by

I made this video yesterday that gives my thoughts on the Nikon 50mm 1.8D vs 1.4D. The test shots were very un-scientific. All pictures were taken hand-held, one after the other and the lighting in the room did not change. This video was shot with a Canon T3i & 28mm 1.8 and a 5D mark iii …

Joshua Coming Around

by

When I was trying to get a picture of my cat the other day, my son Joshua wanted me to take his picture. This request was quite shocking to me, because for the most part Joshua doesn’t like having his picture taken. I think I might have ruined it for him when he was small, …

Down Centre Street

by

Here’s a picture from when you could walk outside with comfortable clothes on! haha. This is the view looking south down across the Centre Street Bridge here in Calgary. I don’t post vertical pictures very often, so I’m not sure about what size I should post them at. Let me know if this is to …

Cold Calgary Night

by

This shot has a super urban feel to me and makes Calgary look very dense. I shot the photo on a cold winter night and I think you can tell. Well you can’t tell like it was Buffalo NY, but trust me, it was cold! haha. Camera: Sony NEX-7 & 55mm 1.8 Zeiss ~ Settings: …

The Skipping Stone Bridge

by

I have been meaning to make my way down to the new Skipping Stone Bridge for some night shots for a while now and finally made it out last night. Although you can’t tell from this picture, I can assure you it was freezing out! Even with the cold, I am glad I went out. The …

Fall Was Nice

by

I’d say we had a pretty decent fall here in Calgary this year. The two prior falls I experienced in Calgary were a lot shorter and winter blasted in from out of no where. This year it kind of eased its way into winter and I was able to adapt and mentally prepare for the …

Modern Lights

by

I like when modern buildings have these kind of cool lights on them. Makes the city look futuristic 🙂 Camera: Canon 6D & 15mm 2.8 Fisheye ~ Settings: f/22 – 30 seconds – ISO 200 Thanks for stopping by, Rob

Snowboarding Brothers

by

Sorry I haven’t been posting much these days. I recently bought a new place and just moved. So the last week has been nothing but packing and then unpacking! Yesterday I found a little time to have some fun in the front yard with my 2 boys to do some snowboarding on a the very …

This Girl Again

by

One day when I was shooting photos on the Centre Street Bridge in Calgary, I noticed a girl running whom I had taken a picture of not once, but twice before up the hill at Crescent road! haha. By the time I realized who she was, I had missed my opportunity for a front shot, so …

Under the Centre Street Bridge

by

Sometimes you gotta climb around to the kind of picture you want. Like this one for instance, the tide was low on the river so I decided to climb under the bridge as far over as I could go with out getting wet. I shot a lot of photos this night and this was the very …

Princes Island Bridge

by

Just a random shot I took the other day while I was walking across the Princes Island Bridge here in Calgary. It’s kind of a wired bridge because you can feel it kind of bouncing a little bit when your standing on it. In any case, I like the view from this bridge :). Camera: Sony …
