Mirror Portrait #15

I couldn't decide if I liked this one better with blown out contrast or in sepia, so I posted both. Behind the Boardwalk Building in Edmonton.

Fishing at Sundown

A pond in Rock Lake Provincial Park near Grand Cache, AB.

Bay Station

...or rather Enterprise Square Station, as they're calling it now, in Edmonton. I still call the Shaw Centre (or have they changed the name again?) "the Convention Centre" and Rexall Place "Northlands Coliseum".

Self Portrait #9

An old favorite, this time with some effects on it.

Bolts

Rust is pretty.

Raindrops

An oldie, but one of my favourites. From Grandma's backyard.

Sage

Corey's Guitar

Some more motion blur because I love it so much.

Mirror Portrait #17

I found this car mirror on the ground at Elk Island Park.

Forest of Light

I've been wanting to experiment more with camera movement for awhile now. It's interesting how different each image is, and the results are so unpredictable. This on is my favorite of the set.

Jasper Rocks

A view off Whistler's Mountain (the one the tramway goes up) in Jasper.

Study: Bedroom on a Summer Afternoon #1

I Like Impressionism

Near "Frozen John" toboggan hill in Fort St. John.

Old Ford Truck

An "Amy" photo

Corey saw this and said "That's an Amy photo". I don't really intend to always shoot dead stuff, or garbage, or rusted, rotten things. It just ends up that way.

I shot this flower when it was fresh as well, but I ended up liking this one better. I like the subtlety of the tones and patterns of the veins in the petals.

I'm now officially a Mac person (instead of a wannabe with a Mac sticker on my PC). I'm amazed every time it just WORKS. I got Lightroom, and this is my first experimentation with it (this photo makes use of the clarity and vibrance adjustments). Although I'm missing the way IMatch lets you categorize your photos in a hierarchical structure pleasing to any neurotic organizer rather than a cloud of keywords, I am loving Lightroom's editing features. Looks like I won't even have to touch Photoshop for most of my editing.
