On Saturday afternoon a friend of mine and I went to check out the horse jumping show at Spruce Meadows here in Calgary. The show was being televised live on CBC television. We got there a bit late and were only around to see a small number of riders, but it was a really fun …

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 …
Cute House in Bridgeland
I was at the park the other day with my 2 boys and I noticed this cute little house across the street. This house is not a typical Calgary style house and that is part of what draws me to it. In a lot of Calgary neighbourhoods all the houses tend to look the same and …
American Eagle in BC
I just stumbled upon this picture yesterday evening (in my files) and it was the first time I really took a good look at it haha. I shot this photo while out on a walk in Castlegar, British Columbia. I was only able to get a 4 or 5 shots of him before he flew …
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 …
Walking with Batman
We decided to take a walk down to the corner store for some ice cream yesterday and I snapped this picture of my son. Right after I took this picture he opened this gate and started walking to the door of the house! haha. I explained to him people probably wouldn’t like that and we …
The Bow at Night
This shot is of the Bow River that runs through Calgary at night. The bridge in the photo is the colour purple because I shot this photo from anther bridge that nights up at night and was lit purple on this particular night. Camera: Canon 6D & 17-40L @25mm ~ Settings: 30 seconds – f/18 …
Calgary By The River
The river that runs through Calgary is rather low now and there was a massive area for me to walk out on to get this picture. It was just me and a couple Canadian Geese hanging out shooting photos :). I actually got a picture with those guys in it, but I’ll post that one another day …
Drunk Girl Shakes Up My Pic
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 …
Zoom Zoom City of Seattle
The only reason I’m posting this picture is because that fire truck says “City of Seattle” on the side of it and I love Seattle! haha. When I took this I was walking out of an art supply store and saw zooming by. I quickly threw my camera in front of my face and snapped …
