Cotton Candy Clouds


I just can't get over the skies tonight. Had to share this asap. I was driving home from work and around town this evening and had to capture the magic in the skies. I was very taken by the colour at the marina.





I'll keep trying to express what photography does for me.  One day I might actually nail it.  This moment - it lasted maybe 5 minutes.  From the time I drove from my daughter's dance studio to the bridge and got out of my car, I had about 5 minutes to get these 2 images.  The railway was my primary focus. I wanted a different perspective on the city's skyline, hoping it was an angle that hasn't been done yet.  When the sun started dipping below the buildings I looked over my shoulder to see the wondrous pinks and soft blues over the Sleeping Giant.  I walked to the other side of the bridge, checked my shutter/iso/fstop to make sure they were good, took a breath to take it in then snapped the image.  The second image of the Giant was truly effortless.   I stood there a moment longer to take in the serenity and snapped a mental image as well.  The mental image is key as when I returned home later that evening to process the images, I give myself creative license to adjust and manipulate the image to how I best remembered the moment and how it made me feel.

Winter Landscape Photography - Frozen Harbours - Thunder Bay


Blair, Brandy and I headed down to the waterfront area on the south side of town this morning.  Hopeful for some sunrise colours we wandered around the board walk scoping out 'comps'. 

The steel statue of an eagle is most majestic and I think might be the best piece of art work in the city.

Winter Sunrise Photography in the Country

Blair and I drive around the country side of Thunder Bay shooting sunrises, rivers, cottages and lots and lots of snow covered trees!  Hiking - a wonderful way to spend a bright and crisp Sunday morning.

Tones of Grey - No Sunrise Again

Went shooting with photographer wizard @bmwphotoca to capture a sunrise and do some location scouting. The weather forecast again was off by a mile and we were met with cloudy blue and grey skies.

Photo walk near Lakehead University

When the cabin fever kicks in it's time to get out into nature. Fortunate for me I live in Thunder Bay where nature is in abundance and you don't have to go far to take in some tranquility.  I took these shots in around where I live - just minutes from my humble abode.

Flourishing in 2018

I really got into photography over the past 8 months. I think my process is coming along nicely. It also helps to have a daily project at work to be responsible for that is almost solely displaying a great photo of Thunder Bay (Good Morning Thunder Bay!) each day.

I fancy myself now as a 'landscape photographer' and I started a new Instagram account called @thunderbaylandscapes  where I'm posting some of my photos.   The next step will be building a portfolio site and start making and selling prints.

I was fortunate enough to spend the night at a friend's camp out at Silver Islet and got a couple of really great photos.
