Thanksgiving Slideshow

Film

My Com. Tech. class at school assigned us a project last week. We were to come up with a word, that we could photograph, that had some linkage to the meaning of the word. So I went away form that with three ideas; This is number 1. Number two, you'll see later. Number 3 is still in the works. But, man will it be worth it.

Focus is for Chumps, and The Life

Ah, the Western Fair. It is undeniably one of my favourite places to photograph. the lights, the rides, the atmosphere; it's all perfectly conducive to great photography. These right here are just a few of the photos I took the other night. I thought I'd play with a few styles I'd tried out before, such as manually mis-focusing, and fogging the filter with my breath.

Self-Portrait

So, unbenownst to me, Playmobil made a wedding photographer figure. So when my mother bought it and didn't tell me, I was very excited. We are, more than usual, a family addicted to the Danish toy phenomenon. The one thing I was going for with this photo (beyond decent composure) was a really warm range of colour to accent the characters own colour range.

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.
