Self Portrait
The mood to shoot a photo struck me this evening, but I had no one to shoot. So I decided I would shoot a self portrait. For this shot I used a Canon 5D mark iii & 50L with one flash set up to camera left. The flash was a Canon 550EX Speedlite shot through …
The Worlds Saddest Playground Toys
I was out with the family today and ended up at this park. It was there I came across the worlds 2 saddest playground toys. Upon arriving my 2 year old son ran over to these old spring loaded riding Duck & Frog’s. He took one look at the frog and said “He’s sad” haha. …

Love For The 1st Canon EF 50mm 1.8
Let me start off by saying I own and often use the Canon EF 50mm 1.2 L Series lens. However, I still love my 50mm 1.8 mark 1, it’s a wonderful lens and produces amazing images. The glass used in the mark 1 is exactly the same as the cheaper built “Plastic Fantastic” 50mm 1.8 …
These Calgary Musicians

From My Phone

Baby Gosling Geese

Fine Art to a Photographer
I shot this photo a couple years ago and it is still one of my favourite to date. I have it blown up movie poster size and hanging in my living room. The camera your looking into in the photo is one of the original Seagull TLR cameras before they changed their name to “Seagull”. …
These Dreams of Shooting Fashion
Are you one of those people who watches “The Breakfast Club” and then wishes they went to high school in the 80’s? Or after you watched “The Fast & The Furious” you went into the gararge and lifted up the hood of your car only to realized you don’t really know what your looking at? …
