Area 53 - 2011 - Photo #7

I only managed one successful photo exploration this week. It seems like we got more snow this week than we have in the last few years. This photo was on a random dirt road somewhere near Woodslee, Ontario. It was unbearably cold and windy, causing the snow to drift continuously accross the road. I thought the drifting looked cool but I wasn't really able to capture it. But believe me it is happening all through the frame in this photo. Also, this image is a 5-photo HDR, I tried to keep it as simple as possible.

Area 53 - 2011 - Photo #4

I've got a couple photos for this week's post. My main photo is from Friday night. This is the very first photo I took that night.


This is the newest member of our family, Hobo. He raised himself in the forest. I set up some lighting and got him to sit still for about 5 photos.

My last photo is natural light falling on the lovely Laura Berry and her awesome red hair.

Week 46

I went out the other night to shoot some taillight photos at the Walker Rd & Grand Marais underpass. I've shot here before but I thought I'd give it another try. I didn't stay too long because it was too cold and I couldn't find my gloves. Everytime winter comes back around I can't find the gloves I had bought the previous winter.

So my photo for this week is looking north along Walker Road with the Chrysler plant in the background. The second photo is the first one I shot this night and I thought it was cool. It's looking east down Grand Marais.

Lung Diary

As you've probably noticed from previous posts, I've been shooting a lot of photos for my friends band, Lung Diary. I went over to Steve's apartment on Thursday night to take photos while they laid down some rough demo tracks. I didn't plan on shooting too many photos because I've already shot everything I could in the apartment. Or so I thought. I shot a bunch anyway and came up with some I really liked.

This one is Steve recording some harmonica. It's usually pretty dark there and I don't like using flash too much because even I get annoyed by its presence, I can imagine how they feel trying to concentrate. This time I got out the tripod to help the clarity of the photos without too much high ISO noise. Notice Steve's collage shrine to Pearl Jam he made back in Grade School. (He kinda likes Pearl Jam). Sony a350, 50mm, f/1.7, 1/2 sec, ISO 200.
