Sunset on the Lake

I shot this photo a few days ago at Pandosy Waterfront Park here in Kelowna. At first I tried shoot some photos of the sunset with a log in the foreground but that did not work at all. The log was just a little too blurry and it was actually getting a bit dark on …

Sunset on the Pier

I saw the sunset starting to happen from my house last night. I thought about if I should go or not for about 5 minutes and then grabbed my camera and ran out the door. Pandosy Water Front Park is the closest place to my house by the water that’s good for photos. So I …

How is it Christmas Eve?

It is hard to believe it is Christmas Eve! This holiday season just zipped by so fast for me. All month I have been well aware that Christmas was fast approaching, but for some reason it just has not really seemed to sink in for me. I will be attending a large Christmas dinner on …

Late Night in the Park

I pushed myself out the door last night to go shoot some photos. I could see the leaves on the trees in front of my house were quite still, so I knew there wasn’t any wind. I figured it would be a good night to go shoot a photo by the lake. I had another …

Union Jack City

It was so dark when I shot this photo. I had to use the flashlight on my phone to change the setting on my camera. Anyhow, the view was spectacular in real life, but I cant remember if it was this good. I don’t think I could see them mountains as easily in the background. …

Dark by the Lake

I was walking around shooting photos in my neighbourhood over the weekend. On my way home I stopped by the lake to see what it looked like. I got there just as the last bit of light was about to leave the sky. I didn’t have a tripod with me so I just rested my …

Gellatly Bay Park Pier

This pier, wharf or whatever you want to call it is at Gellatly Bay Park in West Kelowna. There is a dog beach near by that I take my dog to sometimes and we usually take a little walk over here. I always enjoy walking on a pier and even though this was is rather …

Temporary Snow

There has been a couple dustings of snow so far this year. The snow that was in this picture melted away and we didn’t get anymore snow until the last couple days. The snow that has been falling has been melting right away, but there is a tiny bit of snow on my lawn right …

Moody Lake

Ok so this lake isn’t called Moody Lake. It’s just the Okanagan Lake here in Kelowna, but moment I shot this photo it there was a definite moody vibe in the air. It was a strange day, because only moments before this it was nice and sunny, but as the clouds moved over the sun …

A Calm Afternoon in Kelowna

Yesterday I met my wife after work downtown for a little stroll along the lakeside. The lake was especially calm and so was the afternoon sun. It was sweater weather and even though there were lots of people out and about the entire vibe was pretty mellow. When the water is still like this it …

The Pick Up

So I’m picking up a leaf in this picture, but it was totally set up haha. Also, I was not planning on getting in front of the camera that day, so wardrobe was given zero thought. I prefocused using my manual focus Nikon Ai 50mm f/1.8 using a spot in the sand as an estimation …

Big Rock Beach

I shot this photo before it started getting into jacket weather. I figured if I was going t share this photo I better hurry up and get it out now before it’s too late. The name of this beach isn’t “Big Rock Beach”, I just couldn’t help notice that the beach was made up of …
