Another image of the Chinese Garden in Vancouver. It was getting dark very quickly by this time of the day.

Vancouver In Colour
For various reasons I am behind in posting recently, and it likely won’t get consistently better for a couple of weeks, but at least I can post something today. This image is from our recent trip to Vancouver, from Granville Island.

The Light Shining Through
On my recent walk through High Park, I was struck in this one spot by the amount of light coming through, silhouetting the trees.

A Different Kind of Colour
The day after brilliant sunshine in High Park, I returned to find a different kind of light: it was mainly overcast, leading to more subtle, pastel colours.

Water Colour
On a clear evening at the Beaches, the waters of Lake Ontario take on a lovely intense blue shade, quite unlike the colour in the morning or during the rest of the day. The only changes to this image in post were contrast and an exposure level adjustment

End of a Season #2
Another image from my walk at the Beaches last Thursday evening. Thinning crowds and empty spaces.

Expression #2
Another image from my recent shoot with my friend Jo-Anne. Intriguing expression in this one.

“The Person I Want to Be”
Today’s post is about three photos and two good friends, at this past weekend’s MMPR meetup in Hamilton, Ontario. The first image is Bob Goyetche in mid laugh (and there was a lot of laughing last weekend!). The second and third photos are of my good friend Ken Bole. When Ken saw the second portrait he said “I look like the person I want to be.”
This just might be the nicest comment I’ve ever received for one of my portraits.

Twelve Images of the Lethbridge Japanese Garden
Recently while on my most recent business trip to Lethbridge, Alberta I went back to the Japanese Garden, this time with my Hasselblad 500C/M. It is a lovely spot, an oasis of calm.
The Hasseblad shoots twelve images per roll, and so I’ve decided to post one complete roll here; it’s rare that I am happy with all the images on a single roll. This film in this case is Kodak Portra 400.
