Secluded Peace

Taking pictures of a city a night has a special kind of magic to it. I find this especially true when you are in a dark and secluded place like I was for this shot. My location was completely quiet and I was very much alone. Peaceful, relaxing and exciting all at the same time. I …

Cancun Night

I shot this photo from the balcony of my hotel room in Cancun, Mexico this past winter. Most of the resorts were down the street and around the corner. This area had a more authentic feel to it, which I like. 🇲🇽 😀 Thanks for stopping by, Rob

Calgary Shine

We got some shiny buildings over here in Calgary. I like taking pictures from this side of town because when the sun sets you get this beautiful light hitting the buildings. I also timed out this shot so I would have lights from the cars and the train going by at the same time. I …

Neon

I love old neon signs on buildings. This particular one is quite wonderful. I love how this sign lights up the whole corner of the street. I shot this in Great Falls, Montana. The rest of the street was pretty dark and this little gem was a breath of fresh air in the dark night. …

Landscape in the Night

Camera: Canon 6D & 28mm f/1.8 ~ Settings: f/2 – 15 seconds – ISO 2000 A few weeks ago a friend of mine and I went out to Drumheller, Alberta to shoot a little landscape. I acutely forgot about these pictures until this morning when I was chatting with another friend of mine and he …

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 …

Night of Mountains

These mountains kind of came out of nowhere for me. At the time, I was just trying to get some shots of downtown. After I had all the shots I wanted I decided to point my camera in another direction just to see what I might get. To my surprise the mountains were clearly visible …

City Night Love

I love the city at night! The lights, the people, cars, trains and whatever else is going on. Being a part of all that happens in a city at night makes me feel alive and there is no where else I’d rather be in that moment. Lucky for me, shooting photos of a city at night …

4th Street Lights

The lights that line 4th Street in Calgary are wonderful at night. I wish all the streets looked like this. For this shot I had waited till some cars were waiting for the light to change, that way the street wouldn’t just be streaks of light. When shooting long exposures on the street it’s hard …

The Roxy

I LOVE old signs and buildings like this! Reminds me of old timey hollywood. This little movie theatre is hidden in a small ski town in British Columba, Canada called Revelstoke. I often pass through Revelstoke on my way to visit family in Vernon, BC. This summer my family and I decided to spend a …

Lake of the Stars

Last thursday night I took a little trip to the mountains in and effort to escape the city lights. With me being an urban type of guy, this is some what out of character for me. However, I do enjoy a bit of fresh air and a starry sky from time to time and I have …

Smokey Spokane Night

I was in Spokane, Washington a couple of weeks ago and there was loads of forest fires burning in the area. The city was filled with smoke! During the day, the smoke didn’t look all that great in photos. Thankfully the smoke provided an interesting twist to a photo that has been shot tons of …
