Downtown from Nose Hill Park

There is a massive city park in the North West side of Calgary and I took a walk in it yesterday to shoot this photo. It was a little hazy out, but the picture tired out ok. Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 70-300mm DO IS @250mm ~ Settings: f/18 – 1/400th – ISO 1600 …

Walking High in the Sky

I took this picture at the Calgary Tower. On the observation deck they have a glass floored area that hangs over the side of the tower. My son’s were  walking around and enjoying the view and I snapped this picture. Camera: Canon 6D & 24-105L @75mm ~ Settings: f/11 – 1/500th – ISO 400 Thanks …

Trail, British Columbia

I was visiting some family in Castlegar, BC over Easter and while there I took a little trip to the neighbouring town of Trail to take some pictures. This is probably one of the better shots. It’s a nice little town with a river running through it, but it seems to get  bad rap because …

Alberta Canada Landscape

Yesterday my friend Dusty and I took a little trip south of the city into the Alberta countryside to shoot some landscape photography. We came to the end of one road and saw a few vehicles parked and one of them was occupied. We went and talked to the guy in his truck and asked …

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 …

Madison

I noticed I haven’t posted very many people pictures on here that last little while, so I though I’d post this picture I took of Madison in the fall. This picture was part of my People of Calgary Project and was posted there. I figured since not everyone that comes here reads that blog it …

Nice People Park

The weather has been rather nice in Calgary these days. I stopped by this little park on my way home the other day and snapped this picture. I shot this photos right when I got there, then I when down the hill a little in front of this woman to shoot some photos of the …

A Wave of Clouds

I thought the clouds looked pretty cool coming over the Rocky Mountains at this moment so I grabbed a picture. The clouds almost look like a wave crashing over the mountains. Pretty cool stuff to see :). Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 70-300mm DO IS @300mm ~ Settings: 1/400th – f/20 – ISO 1000 …

Urban HDR

I went out to shoot some photos with a buddy of mine on Saturday and we met at a popular Calgary park/lookout. The plan was to meet at this look out and then go to this old closed down factory to shoot some photos and we did just that. I’d say I got one half …

Olympic Flame

When Canada wins a gold medal in the Olympics, Calgary lights up its Olympic flame for a short period (an hour or so I believe). The day before I shot these I saw the flame on from my bedroom window and thought I’d go out and shoot some photos that night. However after making plans …
