St Andrews Art

I made a quick trip to St Andrews tonight and enjoyed it very much.

Here's one of my better pics.

Doggie Dynamics

This was my most dynamic model of the weekend, but got to practice focus tracking option on my camera and enjoyed the challenge.

I think this subject is very photogenic, loves attention and playtime.

Moncton Moodlight

A great sunset to finish off a great day of visiting family in Moncton and Buctouche this weekend.

Moncton Magic

I also got to visit two of my brothers and family in Moncton this weekend. They are very hospitable and family natured. It was great weather for us to get outside with the kids and let there dog run as my photo shows here.

Always enjoy seeing family, and thanks for making my weekend trip so enjoyable!

Buctouche Blossom

This past weekend I spent some real quality time with my family who live in Buctouche(as well as family that were there visiting) and they opened my eyes to just how beatiful of an area it is.

I really look forward to getting back to visit my family there and the scenery.

Thanks for a great weekend.

A two-fold challenge!

A two-fold challenge:

Make a boring picture of dandelions hopefully interesting

and

Getting them all mowed!

For the photo, I took a few shots of varying degrees of focus, and then layered them in Photoshop to make a multiple exposure.

'High-kitty' Model Shot

Here's one of my better 'high-kitty' shots. She was sun-bathing, thus lots of backlighting.

Saint John Evening at RKYC

Our best evening thus far in Saint John 2006. Taken May 4, 2006 about 8 PM.

My new camera flash :)

Well, spoiled boy just got his new Canon 430 ex speedlite for his camera and is really excited about getting some great photos with it.

The camera club I belong to had 3 guys do great training sessions the other night on camera flash and studio lighting and there shots and creativity convinced me to purchase this flash.

I welcome all comments on creative uses with this such as home made attachments, bouncing the light, etc.

Saint John Spring Evening

Here's a photo I took of the Saint John Harbor, evening of April 23, 2006. It was a very nice spring evening and lots of people were out walking. Couldn't resist taking another night shot.

Introducing Ophelia McLaren...

Here's my favorite pet, the one and only...


Ophelia McLaren, just a crazy cat who loves everything new... especially treats!

This photo shows her behaving well because we just came home from the grocery store.

Welcome to my blog, hope you'll visit often...

This starts off my blog. The world is full of wonderful and interesting people and having this 'space' to share is exciting, so welcome all.

I have many interests and hobbies but photography is becoming a very strong interest of mine. The things I like about it are creativity, never ending subjects/methods to shoot, and is a visual history of my life, memories, etc.

I plan to add photos often to my blog and hope hear feedback from you all, as well as seeing your photos.

Outside of photography, I may blog other things of interest to me, like life, you never know what tomorrow will bring.

The picture above in this post is a wide angle shot I did at the Irving Nature Park in Saint John, NB, Canada in early 2006 spring.
