June 27, 2012 – Looking To Sea

  I took this on our trip out to Nova Scotia last year, and kind of forgot I had it. It is at Peggy's Cove, with the famous lighthouse behind me. The place was packed when we were there, and aside from another couple, these were the only two people really paying attention to the ocean. I didn't think much of it at the time. The whole trip was like a buffet of great iconic images. I'm still going through them and finding things. I came across this when I was selecting images for the main page slideshow and fell in love with it. It was really a beautiful day to see the place, and seeing...

So here we are, week two! As I mentioned before, my Monday posts are going to be used to talk about music. I’m going to make it a goal to only write about people I have photographed. That way if I want to write about someone I haven’t, I’ll have to make it happen somehow. Even though last week I talked about a relatively big star, I’ll have a lot about people you might not know of, but should. For my second music post, I'm going to talk about my partner, and one of my biggest supporters, Leah Morise. I met Leah in the February of 2006. A friend and I had started hosting an open...

Ok, so I made it through a week on schedule! I feel pretty good about the site so far, and am excited for what’s to come. This is the first of my “Photography Friday” posts. I’m still trying to solidify what I want from these. In a broad sense I want to use them to share other photographers that inspire me, but that will likely develop into me writing about other things related to photography and art, gear I like, things that bug me, stuff like that. I’d also like to have a small interview component for the artists I write about, and have started sending out a set of questions that...

Here is the first of my "Wednesday Wallpaper" posts. Every week I'll try to put up an image that would make a nice desktop. Just right click and select "save link as..." to save it. When you set it to your wallpaper, make sure to set it to maintain aspect ratio if that's an option. I took this picture in the back yard of another London artist, Beth Stewart, while we were on a tour of local studios. Beth specializes in coloured pencil drawings of birds. Her backyard is full of bird feeders, so this wasn't the only shot I got that day, but it is my favorite. I have had this as my own wallpaper...

So here it is; the first of my try-and-keep-to-a-schedule posts. Mondays posts are going to center around music. Cause, you know, they both start with M. Very groundbreaking, if I do say so myself. My girlfriend is also very impressed and in no way laughed at me. Because Leah and I are both musicians, we spend a lot of time around other musicians. Photographically speaking, live music is among my favorite things to shoot. It is definitely the only thing involving people that I can shoot without second guessing myself. In these posts my goal will be to centre on a particular artist I find...

Here we go again.

Here we go again.

I am a photography, music, gaming, computer and gadget nerd living in London, Ontario, Canada. I have been shooting since around 2003, when I got my hands on my first digital point and shoot. Since then I have become more and more compelled to shoot. What started as an interest in gadgets has evolved into a need to understand this wonderful craft. I'll shoot with anything I can get my hands on, whether it is a state of the art DSLR or a simple pinhole camera. Besides photography, I have a great love of music. I studied audio engineering in college and have played in several bands over...
