A little work here and there...

Well I took one of my favorite shots from yesterdays shoot of Buddah and chop it up slightly to enhance it. I can't decide which I like more...I'll leave it all of you.

Buddah...

My friend acquired this elegant wooden statue of Buddah so I decided to snap a few shots. The lighting was really harsh so I will come back to it a little later in the evening when those golden yellowy,orange rays light up the place.

The New Girl..

Here's a few shots of the new pup. Her names Black Bear because she litteraly looks like bear. She's 4 months and tipping the scales at just over 60 LBS. My 3 year old shepard Apollo is 65-70 LBS. She's gonna be a monster! :D

Cloud Scape 180

With a little touch here and a little touch there, and here we have it. I took the advice given as I was oblivious to the fact that if I did a 180 degree turn it would appear that the trees are smokin hot. Thanks Ree , I am still inbetween as both seem to work.

Cloud Scape

Just one of the many random shots that I like. I took this image in colour but found it very bland looking. A little razzle dazzle in LR and Photoshop and we get this.

Turkey Day

A few random shots from this Turkey Day past. Just shooting
and killing time.









A full belly and ready for some catch eye.

35mm film...

Soo pretty much I forgot how much fun it can be to work in black and white. I came accross a bunch of scanned negs and prints which I was more then willing to enhance in LR and Photoshop.

Easter Past..

Brought to life from 35mm B&W Ilford HP5 scanned to a digital TIFF file. I then proceeded to edit with Photoshop.

These two images are of my niece, taken last Easter at my dad's place. I couldn't resist showing her off to everyone.

Beautiful....

While going through my vault of images I just kept coming back to this image. She's absolutely gorgeous and the gaze gets me everytime.

" Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time. "

- Albert Camus

I didn't like the quotation marks and dash while editing the image and just stuck with the words.
