My Bio
Currently an amatuer photographer and camera salesman. I'm lucky in that I get to borrow demo gear from work, so I have access to much better equipment than I deserve.
Anyways, I mostly do nature photography. Never people. I spend my time in the summers doing wildlife, and fall or spring is spent doing landscapes. I do try to sneak some macro work in when I can.
Current Residence: Calgary
Favourite genre of music: Rock opera
Favourite photographer: Brad Hill
Favourite style of art: Digital planetscapes, landscape and wildlife photography
Operating System: Win XP x64 or Ubuntu
Wallpaper of choice: Blank walls, covered in prints
Skin of choice: Lacking hair
Favourite cartoon character: Chilly Willy Penguin
Personal Quote: Linear Algebra is like making love to a porcupine; very painful and probably illegal.

This past Monday, my boss was kind enough to let me borrow a 200-400 f/4 VR2 from work for the weekend (my weekend is Sunday/Monday). So, 3:30 in the morning on Monday comes around, and I found myself not wanting to get up. After some wondering, and trying to figure out how I would justify borrowing such a lens and not shooting with it, I drug myself down to the car and got on the road. 5:30 comes around, and I'm driving through Kaninaskis when I come around a corner to find a mother grizzly and her cub grazing in the ditch.
So, I parked, shut the engine off, then spent the next hour standing out through the sunroof, watching them graze and

Its bear season again

Well, its that time of year again. Back to getting up at 3:30am to drive out to the mountains and go chasing bears and other wildlife. More camping out next to Osprey nests, waiting for a parent to return with a fish. And more sunburns, bug bites and incidents of asking myself if I should run. And you know what? It'll all be worth it.

Night and Macro Photography
0 min read
So I'm loosely working on a few different things right now. Mostly trying to get out shooting. I did manage to get out tonight and, since I borrowed the new 16-35 f/4 Nikon from work, I figured I should at least attempt to shoot the city at night. While I was aware, at least academically, that Calgary has way too many huge houses, I didn't wholly realise that until tonight. After an hour and a half of trekking through the Mount Royal neighbourhood, I managed to find one street that didn't have unholy large houses on it, and succeeded in taking a few indecent shots. I think I'm just going to stick to shooting upwards with wide angles from now
