Hello Sun

The sun finally decided to show up around here! I figured I’d better get out and shoot a few quick photos and enjoy the good weather. I just took a little stroll down the marina and took it all in. Finally starting to feel like spring and I couldn’t be happier about it.

Working on the Weekend

The building doesn’t stop around here. I took this picture yesterday (Saturday) and these conscription workers were hard at work. Well some of them were hard at work at least 😆. I dunno what they were doing right at this moment, but I know they are building another couple big building on this site. More …

A Winter Walk Around Town

I went out for a little stroll around town yesterday because I wanted to shoot some photos. It wasn’t a particularly nice day or anything, but the sun doesn’t have to be out to take pictures. This set of photos has a real cool winter vibe to them and that is exactly how the day …

Kelowna is Changing

There is a lot of building going on in Kelowna right now and the city is changing. As I walked down this block I couldn’t help but notice the contrast between this little old industrial building and the new condos going up behind it. I wonder how long this building will last? I guess time …

Box Speed vs Overexposure

I wanted to see how much of a difference there was when overexposing Kodak Gold 200 35mm film. So I made a video out of it. I was testing the difference between shooting at box speed (ISO 200) and ISO 100. The camera I was using in the video is a Canon EOS 3 & …

Looking at Buildings

I went for a little walk the other day to see if I could catch a sunset. Sadly the sunset didn’t really materialize. It was still nice to get out for a walk and shot a bunch a photos, but nothing I was too excited about. This was the last picture I took. I was …

I Went for the Sky

I was sitting at my house doing some work on my computer. I have my computer set up near a window so I can see what’s happening in the sky. This window is facing west, so when I see a sunset coming on I usually know. Now it’s not always a sure thing, sometimes it …

A Moment Later

Sunsets change so fast! I shot this photos the same night as the sunset shot I posted a few days ago (This one). However this shot was a little later in the sunset and obviously a different angle. It’s crazy how fast the sky changes during the sunset and then all of a sudden it’s …

December Sunset

I caught a little sunset action yesterday evening here in Kelowna. When I left my house I didn’t even have an idea of where I was even going. I just started driving down my street. I was about to turn at an intersection when the hill cough my eye. The sun was just about to …

Minolta in Nelson Part 2

I uploaded the second part of my Minolta 800si / Nelson BC video yesterday. In the video I walked around a couple of my favourite parts of town and shot some photos on Kodak Gold 200 35mm film. I’m happy with how this video turned out, so I think it’s worth a watch. The picture …

Waiting by the Library

My son Joshua had a hockey game at one of the downtown arenas here in Kelowna this past weekend. No one is allowed to watch the games because of obvious reasons, so I while I was waiting I decide to go shoot a few photos. The arena he was playing at was on the other …

Pictures of Strangers (video)

When I was in Calgary in September I wondered around the city taking pictures of strangers. I wanted to shoot some photos of people with my Pentax 6×7 medium format film camera, but I didn’t have any models. I figured I might as well just go walk up to people on the street ask them …

Penticton Summer

Just a few shots from this past summer when I was down in Penticton. Penticton is a town is about 45 minutes south of Kelowna where I live. I honestly thought I’d have spent more time down there this year, but for whatever reason I only got down there a couple of times. This day …
