day 56...10-28-09
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.
Hello lamppost,
What cha knowing?
I've come to watch your flowers growing.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo,
Feelin' groovy.
Got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,
All is groovy.

shot while waiting for a train, a very long train. You would think leaving the dugout during flooding would be obvious, but apparently not.

can you guess?
it's a fluffy fibre optic light fixture from ikea. I didn't buy it, just pulled out the iphone and took a a quick shot...

geese in a pond
On my way to Edmonton, I stopped just before I got to Lloydminster and shot this. Yep it's blurry, so are all my other shots that day. I was having a little freak out thinking my camera or lens was broken. The auto-focus on my camera was not working, at all! I checked all the various controls and swtiches, knobs, dials and toggles Turns out there's a little toggle on the side of my camera that allow me to switch between M, S, and C...um what's the heck is this? Out comes the manual, which I do carry with me, and problem solved YEAH!!!
So after I get back in the car and head on down the highway, I get a call from my Dad who's wondering if that was me stopped on the side of the highway and why? What are the chances he would just happen to pull over on the opposite side of the highway at the very same time, in the very same spot. "No Dad, no car trouble, I just stopped to take pictures". I'm sure he was rolling his eyes and shaking his head.

indoor sunset
this was shot in my dining room at 11pm... the "cloudy sky" in the background is a reflection of the textured ceiling (the wall is a mirror) and the "setting sun" is the dining room light fixture. The twigs are just part of the decor, from ikea.

tip: when photographing dogs (and small children)
treats and lots of praise are essential, but more so the treats

safety violation
This one is dedicated to my mother who recently completed her occupational health and safety officer training courses. Now lets see how fast she can spot the infraction and write up a report citing the offence.

coral
At Camera Club Tuesday night we had several "table top" stations set up to play with lighting and still life photography. I played a little, but was not much in the mood. I much prefer to play solo as opposed to hovering with and sneaking in around 40 or so other people. It was fun, it sparked some ideas, but my shots were less than stellar. I definetly plan to play and explore options with off camera flash, my portable studio and my lightbox in the near future. It's gonna mean pulling out my camera manual (you know it's that book that comes with your camera, explains all it's features and stuff ), and my flash manual, and that collection of cords I have but dont use.

tastes like the real thing
I thought I'd post a couple extra shots from my outing today as I did not touch a camera at all in the previous 2 days (head hung down in shame).

moon
This was not shot on saturday oct 10th, as I did not touch my camera today. Okay that's not true I did snap a few iphone shots of the chaos I must bring to order in my room and the basement family room, but that would just be embarassing. So instead I'll please your eyes with this shot of the moon from thursday. If it hadn't been so cold, or so dark on a back road in the middle of nowhere, or if I hadn't been so lazy I would have brought out my 500mm, but it was all those things so 200mm was my limit. Dont look closer though...
