Exploring Fire, July 2008 : At a family reunion in July, I spent some time around a campfire. I hadn't really photographed fire before now, at least not with any degree of intentionality. I explored a variety of different angles, shutter speeds, and focal lengths as I photographed this constantly moving and changing subject. Because this is an exploration of a singular thing, my normal rules of culling don't apply.

Winter Rose : At the end of January I decided to take a few pictures of a few roses that happened to be in our house. I took them out onto our deck and shot them against the backdrop of snow...I'm not particularly impressed with the background; the photos would have turned out better without our dead shrubs being visible. ;-)

Exploring Snow, January 2008 : The snow was fresh this morning, so I decided to step into my backyard and take a few pictures of it. These are also my first public photos with the Nikon D300 (an amazing camera!).

Fall 2006 Scenery in Calgary : Although the fall season in Calgary tends to be rather short, before the snow falls things are very beautiful here as the leaves change colour. I wanted to capture some of that, although the day I went shooting was very overcast so the photos took a fair bit of tweaking to avoid looking dull. This was one of the first sessions where I shot 100% RAW and spent the time to convert and adjust each one. I think the results were worth it, I really like the tone in most of them.
