Bad jokes about the name aside, I’ll be ordering an iPad just as soon as they are available: I’ll probably order the 32gb model with 3G radio. Not 100% sure I’d use the 3G network option but I’d rather have the option…especially since it’s unlocked – which is a big deal by the way. This…
After a great wrap-up dinner with the 12×12 committee last night, I got inspired to play with all the entries and made this: I highly recommend checking it out full size. It was made with the Photo Collage tool that I wrote about previously….such a fun little tool. While at dinner, we discussed the next…
Thanks to an invitation from LG Canada back in December, I was able to meet and photograph some of the team members of the then proposed team for Canada’s Snowboard Cross (SBX) Olympians. From left: Maëlle Ricker, Rob Fagan, and Drew Neilson They still had a number of qualifying events to compete in before the…
I’m definitely starting to feel excited about this event despite the seriousness of my face in the media badge. It’s really starting to feel real now.
I went downtown today for an impromptu photowalk with some friends and we toured some of the Olympic venues. It’s amazing to see the transformation the city is going through right now…including the incredible amount of sponsorship advertising on display like the Samsung ‘billboard’ above.
Over the holidays, I got to check out a friend’s Go Pro HD which really blew me away since you can put it just about anywhere thanks to its numerous mount options, waterproof housing and wicked wide angle lens.

I stumbled across this sticker and figured it was the perfect addition to my car (along with my FSM badge): It makes me smile everytime I see it…and judging from the smiles on people following behind me (and pointing), it was a good investment. Now if only I could get my car to make the…
On the weekend after shooting the 12×12 timelapse video, I was talking with Angela who also owns the Nikon P6000. She wanted to know how I shot the timelapse. I figured it would make a good blog post so here you go…keep in mind this is how I do it and there are many other…
This past weekend was the showcase exhibition and awards presentation for the 12×12 Photo Marathon that took place last December. On Friday, the organizing committee hung just over 600 photos at the Vancouver Photo Workshops space. Judging from the feedback from the attendees on Saturday, it was well worth the effort. The marathon winners: I…
Tonight, Chris Heuer and I recorded a brief podcast as part of the lead up to our SXSWi Core Conversation, called “Do cool kids leave when the suits arrive?”. It’s intended to give attendees a little insight into the session we’ll be having on Friday, March 12, 2010. You can read my original submission (from…
