Better at Night

Cities always look better at night. I shot this photo from the exact same spot as the last photo I posted. I took this picture with a Minolta 50mm f/1.4 and the last one was with a Nikon 105mm f/2.5. We were only staying at this place for a few days, but I kinda miss …

City Lights in Calgary

I took this picture on my last trip to Calgary. I like pictures like this were the entire frame of the photo is consumed by buildings and city lights. This photo in-particular as a lot of interesting architecture in and I think that’s a big part of what I like about this image. Thanks for …

Looking Around Kelowna

I’ve been looking around Kelowna for new photo spots ever since I moved here. Since I am new to the city all the photo spots are new, but I’ve been trying to find the best ones. I should probably just be shooting everything though since I live here and I’ll eventually cover it all haha. …

Bright Lights

I love all the lights down here. I especially like the lights strung around the building and to be honest, I probably wouldn’t have shot this photo if those lights were not there. When I shot this photo it was pretty dark out as you can see form the sky, but the lights set a …

A Night At The Beach

When I was in Puerto Vallarta in the spring I took many late night strolls around the city. The night I found my self at this location I had just been there earlier on in the day time. During the day the beach was packed and there were people everywhere. Even thought I like a …

Fujifilm JPEG in Portland

I have been hearing about how amazing the Fujifilm jpegs are for sometime now. I decided it might be time to give Fuji a closer look and see if the photos lived up to the hype. I had been planning on heading back down to Portland to hang out for a few days and I …

RIU Hotel

When I was down in Cancun last I walked by this hotel many times. I like the way it looks, wide and simple. This place was right next to the hotel I was staying at, so one night I went over and shot this photo from a quarantined off staircase on an old mall. The …

Bouncing Flash

This is Chris, I was over at his house last night for dinner. I knew he lived in the building that was off white in color, so I thought I’d see how the flashed looked bouncing it off the wall. I used a 28mm lens so I could take in some of the surrounding buildings. …

Back in Action

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years! I was away visiting family over the holidays and never found myself in front of a computer, hence the lack of posts over the past week or so. Anyhow, I’m back in Calgary and it’s freezing as usual, so here’s a …

Mustachio

I was kicking around the Kensington neighbourhood here in Calgary on Saturday night when I spotted this guy on the street. You could see the mustachio pop’n off right away and there was no way I wasn’t going to get a picture. I just walked up to him and said “Hey man, can I take …

Sony a7ii & Canon 50mm 1.2

I recently got a grip for my Sony a7ii. The grip is an aftermarket brand called Vello. The grip makes holding onto this camera feel way better and I am sure because of it I will reach for this camera more often than I do. The lens I have on the camera is a Canon …

Rocky City Sunset

Yesterday evening, straight after dinner I raced out of my house to a predetermined location. When I got in my car the sun was starting to set and I worried I had waited to long to leave. By the time I got to the location the sky had not yet turned colourful. This was good, …
