Breaking The Sky

The Grand Bend shoreline is, in my opinion, the most beautiful in Ontario. Labor day Weekend my family and I were in Grand Bend on vacation and the weather was one-of-a-kind. The wind was absolutely vicious one night and we decided to venture down to the beach. I barely was able to leave my camera alone because as the sun set, the waves were crashing, the wind was buffeting us all and the sky was growing more ominous by the minute. I firmly believe that photography is only man's attempt to mimic the human eye. And I was proven right the other night. A few of my pictures turned out very well, but nothing compared to actually being there. The sight was absolutely unique.

Guess Who's Back?

Yes, I'm back from my summer job at camp and am back to my blog. You can expect far more regular posts now. But for now I've got these. One nature shot and one purely satirical.

Don't Feed The Hipsters

In a Haze

Archipelago Photography is now the official photographer for London's newest grunge band Haze. We had a great shoot last night and I'm expecting another one tonight.

Another Week of Photos!

So I went back to camp for a week. I'm now home for two then back for four. Full summer to say the least. While I was at camp I was working hard so I didn't take a whole lot of pictures, therefor less photos to blog. I do however have a few for you. Enjoy

Focus

The first thing I think of when I look at this photograph, is a candle. Because, to me, that's what it looks like. It could look like any number of things to various people. and thats why I like it. In reality, it is a photo of fireworks. I was at a fireworks show, and decided to manually focus my camera as shallow as it could and make the photo. I really enjoy the interpretive quality of this photo, overall.

What I'm Up To

So this summer I got a camp counsellor job at Pearce Williams Christian Centre. While there I have no computer so this blog has become rather blank recently. But, just because I can't blog, doesn't mean I'm not taking pictures. I was away for 10 days, and took 887 photos. 887! So to let you know that I still have you guys in my mind, here's a few samples of what I've been doing. Although most of my photos are of people, and these are landscap-ish, it's only because A tree won't complain about you putting their picture on your blog.
