Winter or Summer ?
The weather has gone completely INSANE in Calgary the last few days. I have been waking up to WINTER! Yet it is still 100% summer! I have experienced the most awful weather since moving here haha, but I have yet to snap and pack my bags to head back to the coast. I’m sure that …
Old Camera & Older Lens
If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter than you might already know I got my hands on an old Nikon D70 with a Sigma 10-20mm lens for $75! I have been playing around with it lately just for fun and have gotten some good pictures with it. I put my old 1970’s 50mm 1.4 …
Train Into The City
I shot this photo last night from SAIT (a local college). I got there a bit early and tried a few shots while it was lighter out, but I knew waiting till the sun when down more would give a much better effect. Once the sun went down more I waited for a train to go …
Happy Cammy
Yesterday I decided it was a good day to take a picture of my younger son Cammy. He is always a good sport when it comes to getting his picture taken, so this shot didn’t take to long :). The picture on the right just shows the set up I used for this photo. I …
Peace on the Peace Bridge
If you like a futuristic bridge, then the Peace Bridge here in Calgary, Canada is the one for you! I shot these photos with a fisheye lens. When I was getting the one of the guy taking a picture of the girl tossing up the “Peace” sign, I almost ran right into them because I …
People On Their Way Home
Yesterday afternoon I was out getting some stock video shots and it started to lightly rain, so I packed up and started heading home. On my way to my car the rain kind of stopped, so I decided to shoot a few photos of people on their way home from work. These pictures were taken …
Crosswords While Walking
I was walking across the Centre Street Bridge here in Calgary the other day and I saw this guy walking up the bridge doing a crossword puzzle while walking! I put my camera up to my face and kept walking in his direction waiting for him to put his face up to see where he …
Self Portrait Time
I shot this self portrait a few weeks ago for a project I was working that didn’t amount too much. Since I took the picture I thought I’d share it here :). Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 35L ~ Settings f/1.4 – 1/8000th – ISO 100 Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Canon 35L vs 28mm 1.8
Last night I decided to do a quick little “battle of the bokeh” type test with the Canon 35mm 1.4 L series lens & the 28mm 1.8 prime. Given the prices difference in these lenses (35L – $1,479.00 vs 28mm $509.00) I can’t say I’d recommend springing for the L, unless your eyes can’t see anything else …
3 Year Old Violet
I did a shoot with Violet and her mom last year for her 2nd birthday and I had the pleasure of another shoot for her 3rd birthday! 🙂 The first few shots I used a reflector because the sun was blaring. The reflector really has a nice bit of light that I like a lot …
28mm Manual Focus
I shot this photo with an old Vivitar 28mm f/2.8 Close Focus RL Edition lens. The lens is a Nikon Mount and I got a Nikon to EOS adapter from ebay to use it on my Canon bodies. This lens is crazy sharp wide open and at every aperture. I think it goes with out saying …
Undercover in Calgary
On Saturday night a friend of mine and I went out to shoot some photos. It started ranging like crazy so we had to try to keep shooting under overpasses and covered areas, thankfully there are loads of these to choose from in Calgary. It eventually stopped raining, which allowed me to get the first …
