i’ve driven past this – whatever it is – many times in the past. always wondering what it was. it’s always reminded me of a time machine. this is the first time i had the opportunity to stop and take a photo of it. 5DMkII + 28mm f2.8 | Please click an image to view gallery & details

um ya. random and bad attempts at street photography. that starbucks – i like how the corner of the store (camera left) is all glass/windows and a real street photographer would take a really cool photo of that guy, sitting by the window, with his head down in the book. and then i looked down as i was passing city hall; and into that grate. i took a picture. and the out of focus one – well that’s an out […]

and so some more interior light. oh but the first image, I do love so much. first rule of photography: stop and take the picture at the moment you see it. i started to walk by and said to myself that i’d stop on the way back. if i had done that – you know this image wouldn’t exist right now. the night set of images are with the 28mm f2.8 I picked up this evening. seeing if i like […]

the plus is a half-hearted attempt at street photography, of the guy sitting near the curb. i never know the best approach taking photos of homeless people. so i don’t. i guess i don’t want it to be thought that i’m exploiting them. i just always wonder why we avoid them in general. how easily we walk by. it was a rainy evening and no time but for a short walk to the subway – so just a couple more […]

cheesy, but i said it. the weather turned on over the lunch period and there was so much beautiful light that continued until the afternoon. if i keep this up, i really need to get a 24mm lens. using my 50mm on the xti is just too long. and I like using the smaller body and it’s much warmer too. xti + 50mm f1.4 + manual focus + sharpened for web only | Note: Please view the images in the […]

These girls (jacqui, tru) are my friends. Though we’ve never met. We share in common our love(s) for photography. That is what connected us. And in that it is so wonderful to look back over the years and see how we’ve (yes me too!) have grown. Actually, it’s the fact that I can look at them and see their growth, that I’m able to then see my growth. How we’ve struggled and wondered about our skill in photography; How we’ve […]
