Just another Calgary skyline shot here for ya on a Monday :). I think this picture will be better once some more of those buildings on the left are done. This one is better viewed in a larger size. If you’d like to see it larger you can find it big on my Facebook page …

Not Waiting For A Train
Yesterday evening I was out running an errand and naturally, I had my camera with me. So before I headed home I decided to drop in on a subway station and see if I could get a picture. This lady was waiting for the train on the closest side to the escalator I came down. I waited …
Joshua’s Christmas Concert
Last night my 5 year old son Joshua had his school (Stanley Jones Elementary) Christmas Concert. The lighting wasn’t exactly ideal, but the cuteness made up for it! :). Joshua is the taller boy on the right hand side with the Calgary Flames tie on. All except the last shot were taken with a 5D mark …
Through The Skylight
I shot this photo over the weekend on a cloudy day. I am sure it would be much better if it was nice day, because the contrast of the blue sky would be great. I might just have to go back another time. Actually, maybe a twilight shot would be even better! We’ll see :). Camera: …
Someone To Talk To
I was out shooting some street photography this weekend in Calgary. I saw this guy on a street corner and couldn’t help but notice his mannequin head sticking out of his shopping cart haha. I imagine him walking around talking to this head, but I don’t know, I could be way off! All’s I know, …
Flying Under Moonlight
Yesterday evening I caught this WestJet flight flying under the moonlight. I waited around trying to get another shot of a jet flying right in front of the moon. I came close as you can see in the 2nd picture, however the shot was not meant to be at that moment. Next time! ;). Both photos …
Ice Skating Downtown
This is the Olympic Plaza ice skating rink downtown in Calgary. I took this around 1pm on Monday and as you can see there wasn’t a lot of people there. This might be an ideal time to do some skating if you’re looking to avoid crowds :). It’s a nice setting right downtown and the …
A Couple Seattle Mariners
Some of you may recall a photo I shot of Cammy this summer with this hat and shirt. This is the same shoot! I just hopped in on a picture with him and this was it :). Camera: Canon 6D & 135L ~ Settings: f/4 – 1/200th – ISO 100 1 580EX ii Speedlite shot …
Freak Snow
This picture is from back in September! We had a freak snow storm here in Calgary this year and this guy did not seem to stoked to be walking around in it haha. I could tell he was a nice relaxed kind of guy though, because I had to get extremely close to him to …
The Train Over 10th
I was looking for a picture in my files this weekend and came across this picture. I totally forgot I even took it and can’t believe I didn’t rush to share it straight away, because I rather like this shot. It’s a nice view down 10th Street and it’s kind of cool with the train going …
Nikon 50mm 1.8 vs 1.4 Video
I made this video yesterday that gives my thoughts on the Nikon 50mm 1.8D vs 1.4D. The test shots were very un-scientific. All pictures were taken hand-held, one after the other and the lighting in the room did not change. This video was shot with a Canon T3i & 28mm 1.8 and a 5D mark iii …
Joshua Coming Around
When I was trying to get a picture of my cat the other day, my son Joshua wanted me to take his picture. This request was quite shocking to me, because for the most part Joshua doesn’t like having his picture taken. I think I might have ruined it for him when he was small, …
Down Centre Street
Here’s a picture from when you could walk outside with comfortable clothes on! haha. This is the view looking south down across the Centre Street Bridge here in Calgary. I don’t post vertical pictures very often, so I’m not sure about what size I should post them at. Let me know if this is to …
