Around My City

Every once in a while, I bring my camera to work. Last week as we were driving around the city, I decided to snap a few pics while we were out and about.

I Have Seen the Light... (through a tinted piece of glass....)

OK, so I finally had a chance to try out my new HiTech Grad ND filters and my Cameron Fader ND today. The pics aren't exactly high art but they'll give you an idea of what exactly they're capable of. 

Frankenflash....

I've been having so much fun with my new 90mm macro lens that I figured it was time to step it up a notch. What I needed was a dedicated macro flash.

So one day last week I decided to check out Henry's to see what a macro flash was going for...

$869.99?!?

Ummm... yea; that's not gonna happen.

So what's a guy to do? Well, how about make my own....

Week 9 for the Project 52

Toronto

So I finally had some time off this week (Yay me!!!) and I decided it was about time I finally set out to shoot that Landscape picture I've been talking about for the last few weeks or so. Friday seemed like a good enough day so I packed up all my stuff, loaded it into my car and set out to see what I could find...

So this is what a Landscape does NOT look like....

So here we are, going into the 10th week of the year and I'm already starting my 10th job of the year. This is definitely putting a dent into my Project 52...

Let's try this again, shall we?

Week 4 of my Project 52!

OK, so I admit it; I got lazy. Between work and real life, things just didn't come together the way I figured they would. After billing almost 21 work days in January and being a general couch potatoe in February, the Project 52 kinda fell by the wayside... But fear not!!! I'm back and raring to go! It's still a Project 52; I just never said it would be 52 weeks in a row.... (OK, in hindsight maybe I did but it's my Blog so I can pretty much do what I want....)

Well so much for week 3...

I'd planned on posting another pic this past weekend but work got in the way.

Working on a commercial for McDonalds so a couple of production shots will have to do for now. I'll add more if time permits.

Our bodies are 90% water...

A while back I decided to do a little experiment with water drops and a flash. The idea is you want to freeze the drop just as it connects with the surface of the water. It worked and I managed to get a few good pics out of the process. 

 

For week 2 of my Project 52, I decided to revisit the water drops....

And so it begins… Again….

Well I said I’d do it…

January begins and so does my Project 52! 52 weeks, 52 photos. And just like every journey, my project begins with the first step…
