This is how you can keep a cold indefinitely : Take medicine Go to sleep Wake up feeling just a little bit better Conclude that you are totally healed and go do stuff (work, shop, or in my case, wander about in the cold with your camera). Repeat. Yesterday I woke up thinking ‘I’m going…

Last Saturday night we met up with our friends Johnathan and Beverly. What do people do on a warm Saturday, with an almost full moon, at midnight? We load up on camera gear, flashlights and Dairy Queen, and go stomping about in the woods looking for waterfalls, that’s what. This is the entryway to Tews…

Just a quick blog post while we’re checked in here at Sault Ste Marie – this is what I got after stacking all 116 of the shots from last night :)

Well, actually Day 1 was Tobermory, but we arrived so late at night and left so early that we really didn’t get to see much. This morning we drove down to the ferry docks to catch the Chichiman Ferry to South Baymouth. It was a great ride – bumpy and queasy and we both fell…

Tito and I went north again last night – in hopes of aurora hunting after sunspot AR 1520 delivered a massive X-class flare directly to earth. We’re getting quite adept at finding these things ;) We got our best shots not 1.5 hours from downtown Toronto – just outside of Barrie, south of Mt. St.…

Blogging from Calgary tonight, and feeling totally beat. It’s 12:30 am according to my body, and I’m getting up at 4:30 to shoot the blue hour. However, I am travelling and shooting and being paid to do my 2 favourite things, so I can hardly complain about being tired. Oh, and I got a new…

First, and perhaps most importantly, check out spaceweather.com. Looks like a decent chance of aurora tonight, so if you live in a northern latitude, keep your eyes on the sky for the next few days! If it stays clear I think Tito and I will head north tonight. Perhaps we’ll luck out again like we…

Star photography and northern light hunting is a favourite hobby of ours. I love long exposure shots (and that feeling when you hold your breath and wait to see what the photo will look like). Here are a few of my favourite images, and what I did to get them: To avoid repetition: all of…

This is the winter that wasn’t. At least, here in TO it wasn’t. We’re not used to this total lack of winter and last weekend Tito and I drove out in search of ice and snow because, dammit, we miss it. We ended up heading north into Parry Sound – as a bonus the northern…

West Indians will never refer to taking a photo. They always say ‘take out the photo’ – implying that the photo is a thing somehow extracted from the camera via magic. I think they’re onto something. Oh, and of course I’m not a photographer, I’m a ‘Photo-take-outter’. =D This week I realized that the thing…
