Playing with my Lensbaby Composer and the star disk from the creative aperture kit on my D90 while driving back from Seattle: Sometimes it’s fun when you don’t have to drive.

Last month, I set a new photography goal which was to take/upload at least one photo every day. Made it…barely. A couple days were a little close but I managed to shoot something every day. The experiment continues…
Inspired by something Peter told me about that Moose Peterson mentions in his videos, I wanted to find a way to mount another camera on top of my Nikon D90 with the goal being to capture the process of shooting photos sort of through my eyes. Moose calls it his MooseCam but I couldn’t actually…
This is some pretty slick software, called Shape Collage, available for Mac/PC/Linux and it’s FREE! I pointed the application to a few hundred iPhone photos (most of them from SXSW) on my computer (it can also traverse web url’s for photos or even my local Aperture library), then hand drew a cactus shape and it…
I finally got around to trying out the macro feature of the lens adaptors I bought awhile ago for my iPhone (which I can also use on my Zi6 which has it’s own macro mode): You basically just have to unscrew the wide angle lens and it breaks down into two parts – the macro…

Last month, after Northern Voice wrapped up, there was a unique event being held in a part of downtown Vancouver called Yaletown that seemed like an ideal photographic subject. Basically a couple of city blocks were closed to vehicle traffic and a number of light installations were set up by local artists. There were also…
This past weekend I attended one day of the ImageQuest Professional Photographers Convention in Richmond. I kept waiting for someone to ask me to leave since I don’t consider myself a professional photographer. The only reason I wanted to attend was in order to see Joe McNally’s session. I’ve seen a number of videos he’s…
I took the plunge this past week and bought a 15″ MacBook Pro. This was mostly due to the increasing amount of video and photography I’ve been doing lately and needed a bit more (okay a lot more) horsepower under the hood. One thing that I’ve always wondered about, is that card slot in the…
