A Bike Ride to the Mayor

by

I was out on a bike ride along the Bow River here in Calgary taking some pictures this morning. I stopped at the Centre street bridge and shot a few photos and while I was at it I took some with my iPhone. For this shot I had a fisheye attachment called the Ollo Clip …

Downtown from Nose Hill Park

There is a massive city park in the North West side of Calgary and I took a walk in it yesterday to shoot this photo. It was a little hazy out, but the picture tired out ok. Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 70-300mm DO IS @250mm ~ Settings: f/18 – 1/400th – ISO 1600 …

Walking High in the Sky

Calgary, High in The Sky

by

I took this picture with my drone yesterday. This is a view of Calgary you don’t really see because there are no apartment buildings in the immediate area where I was flying. Kind of a fun picture for locals I guess :). (click on image to view large size) Camera: Phantom 2 Drone ~ Edited in …

The Bow at Night

by

This shot is of the Bow River that runs through Calgary at night. The bridge in the photo is the colour purple because I shot this photo from anther bridge that nights up at night and was lit purple on this particular night. Camera: Canon 6D & 17-40L @25mm ~ Settings: 30 seconds – f/18 …

Calgary By The River

by

The river that runs through Calgary is rather low now and there was a massive area for me to walk out on to get this picture. It was just me and a couple Canadian Geese hanging out shooting photos :). I actually got a picture with those guys in it, but I’ll post that one another day …

Drunk Girl Shakes Up My Pic

by

Last night I decided to go out and get some night shots of this bridge that is near my house. As I arrived I noticed a few sketchy looking people milling about, but they ended up going on their way, so I set up my tripod and camera. I set my camera to a 30 …

Flying High in Calgary

by

Yesterday afternoon I was out flying my drone at Princes Island Park in Calgary. Snapped this shot of the city from high above a little pond that goes around the park. (click picture to view larger & sharper) Shot with an IDJ Phantom 2 drone. Thanks for stopping by, Rob

Ridiculously Wide!

by

I rarely shoot this wide because it looks like all the buildings are falling into each other haha. However, if you want all the buildings in one shot so close, there isn’t much choice. I shot this one in Chinatown in Calgary, Alberta Canada. Camera: Canon 5D mark iii & 16-35L @16mm ~ Settings: 1/160th …

A Drivers City

by

In Calgary you must have car! I think this picture kind of shows that :). I had wanted to take this picture for well over a year now. I used to drive past here over one of those overpasses everyday and I would always want to get this picture, but it wasn’t easy. There is …

A Walk in Chinatown

by

I was in Chinatown the other day here in Calgary and I took a few street shots. I decided to shoot 35mm just to mix things up a little and force my self to get a little closer to my subjects. I definitely prefer 50 over 30, but it’s fun to get a little closer …
