Moving Blogs
Alas, It's been too long since I've posted here. A lot has changed in the two years since my last post. I've now actually moved to Vancouver and have started a blog with daily posts here - Vancouver Daily Photo.

Calgary At Night
UPDATE: I've now actually moved to Vancouver and have started a blog with daily posts here - Vancouver Daily Photo
daylight hours...wait that doesn't sound right. But it does get
darker earlier this time of year which makes it easier to capture some
night photography right after work - if you're willing to brave the
cold. I tried my hand at some night shots of the city from Nose Hill
park, although the wind picked up a so my tripod was shaking a bit
during exposures.
This last photo took my 18mm up to 55mm over 4 seconds in a zoom burst.

Getting Back to Morocco
I'm finally getting my files more organized and have migrated to Lightroom 2.0 for this process. This process has many many steps, especially when going back to files originally on film. I'll be creating more detailed posts on my digital asset management (DAM) process, but during one of these steps I went back to 2003 for a while, organizing my photos from Morocco. Below are a few favorites.

Around the World in Black & White
I've been using Picasa for a while now, but only now have I used the portable slideshow function. The site makes it pretty easy to present a number of photos for viewing in any website. Below are a number of photos from some of my travels. All in black and white (hence the title of this post), and all geotagged - although you'll have to venture over to the Picasa Web Albums site to see them on a map.

Salt Harvesting in Bolivia
The salt flats in Bolvia stretch for miles, and only a small portion is actually used for salt harvesting. None of the salt leaves Bolivia and is only used for local consumption. It is first scraped into piles (top left), then brought outside the oven (bottom left) to dry a bit more before going to the oven area (top right).

Abstract Patterns
I tend to take a lot of pictures of patterns - sometimes inadvertently, sometimes on purpose. And when I say 'Abstract' in this sense it's not to such a degree that the actual subject is illegible, just not the main focus of the photo if you're looking at it a certain way.
Picture Descriptions:
Door Rivets (Rabat, Morocco)
Wooden Chairs (Sharon Temple, Ontario)
Cafe Tables (Salamanca, Spain)

Vacouver Island in Black & White
Some of these pictures might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Vancouver Island, or the town of Sidney to be specific. I had the opportunity to be in Sydney for a couple weeks through my day job and tried to get a bit of different viewpoint on the world around this sleepy little town by Victoria. All these images were taken in colour, but after sorting through a few of them, I thought these ones looked good, if not better in black and white.
