Revising the Site
Over the past month I’ve been revising my personal website, moving it from a simple photo blog and notebook toward something with just enough structure to…
New Lens, Familiar Place
The first sunny morning this week was too tempting to not take a break from work and head down to Jericho beach to take some photos. I'm trying to spend more…
XPansive Dunbar
Out for an early morning walk, enjoying the spring weather, morning light and blooming flowers! Shot in the SL2's available 3:1 aspect ratio and re-cropped in…
Dunbar Wide Open
I found a neutral density filter amoung my photo gear today and it fits the 43mm threads on my Zeiss 35mm f2 Biogon. The M10's shutter tops out at 1/4000 of a…
Shower Study
Photos made and edited on iPhone 15 Pro.
A Complicated Relationship
Everyone has some complicated relationships in their life. My relationship with color is complicated. I love color but I also love it's absence. I'm also in a…
March Monochromes
Most of my posts in recent months on this site have been of color photos. I have to admit to a renewed interest in color, despite a bit of hesitancy in putting…
Autumn Garden
A few close ups and experiments from the patio garden.
Summer Haze, Color Edition
A few color versions from yesterday's Summer Haze photos. The smoke today has let up a little bit!
XPan Aspect Ratio
I was watching a YouTube video today about the Hasselblad XPan. The XPan is a circa 1998, 35mm film camera that takes panoramic images by exposing a wide…
Marine Morning, Monochrome
After posting color photos from this morning, I had a second pass throught the files and processed some of the photos as black and white's. There are a few of…
Masked Sets
As the 2 year aniversary of the pandemic approached I started to look through my photo library for photos of people and thier masks. The ones presented here…
GI and TT
Today was a gorgeous day to hang out at Granville Island with my wife for a while this afternoon. It was also a good opportunity to try out the diminutive…
Kits Diptychs
Some photo sets from my outing at Kits Beach at dusk on Sunday
Garden Noir
I was doing some test maco shots in the garden the other day. I didn't really find any of the photos compelling in color, nor converted to "standard" black &…
Yaletown at 75 ...mm ...equivalent
Some quick street test shots with the Fujinon XF 50mm f2 R WR lens on Shared Spacess of Yaletown this afternoon. This is a nice compact lens with a 75mm…
Strathcona Farmer's Market
I was in Edmonton this past weekend with my daughters visiting my Mom, Sister & Nieces. It was a quick weekend trip but we managed a trip to the Strathcona…
Set Theory
I'm increasingly interested in photos Workbench, images that that "go together" in some way to tell a story or present some common theme. Sets of 2 or 3 are…
Serendipitous Flubs
I wish I could say these photos were intentional motion blur shots. I was capturing passing moments on a walk and moved from bright sunlight into shade and…
Stride
These two photos were taken a couple of minutes apart and I think they sort of work as a pair.
Dahlia Dreams
One of the photos I took yesterday inspired me to go back into the garden and spend some more time photographing the Dhalias. The first photo was captured…
Sale
Two frames that, I think, make an interesting set.
Is This Anything ?
Occasionally, I come across some of my flubs that have some appeal. These two shots are completely out of focus but I'm drawn to them for some reason. I…
Couple More Photo Sets
A couple more sets from the same outing. None of these are particularly good photos but I do enjoy them as a set.
Photo Set Workbench
One of the reasons I started this blog was to have a place to experiment and make notes about how I edit and present some of my photography. Most social media…
