I’ve seen some nice sunsets in my day but nothing in my life could compare to this incredible moment. This was the scene upon exiting the Rocky Mountains in Alberta on an ambitious 9600km road trip from Toronto to Vancouver and back in 8 days. This was shot just east of Crows Nest Pass in Alberta. We tried to capture the immense beauty with juxtaposition of the green energy wind turbines, the mountains and the sunset to help convey the powerful feeling we had at that moment. Good thing I didn’t fall into a caffeine coma!

This is a shot along a valley near Osoyoos, British Columbia, Canada. This is part of a series of images shot from a road trip we took from Toronto to Tofino and back. This was an area of the southern route through B.C. that took us through some really unique landscapes which were basically deserts in the valleys through the mountain range. I love the colour of this shot and the apparent depth created by the hazy background and the vivid foreground. I also didn’t mind the lens flare as I feel it helps convey the warmth and beauty of the moment.

In 2006, Burlington, Ontario (where I was living at the time) did not get a lot of snow that winter, the weather was rather strange. This is a shot on the Bruce Trail in Burlington. While hiking, I came across a really unique set of circumstances, the top of the escarpment was covered in fog, with an uncharacteristic small amount of snow and extremely soggy ground. I took this shot of the side of the escarpment with the incredible fog not allowing much visibility. I really like the balance of this image with the ratio of sky to ground.

This is a stylized shot of Kennedy Lake (see location) on Vancouver Island on the way to Tofino. What I really like about this shot is the tone of the image though I would be curious as to your opinion on the styling. This shot was part of a series of shots Sandra and I took on our road trip from Toronto to Vancouver (Tofino technically).

As motorcycle season approaches I am reminded of how once upon a time I decided it would be a great idea to purchase a motorcycle to commute to and from work. So I purchased a 2008 Honda CBR 600 RR. The bike has since been sold. After moving to Toronto, I found this bike to be rather overkill for the daily commute. I will definitely say it was an incredible joy to drive and really was an odd but full filling chapter in my life. I really thought this bike was a magnificent beauty, pictures simply couldn’t do it justice.

When I first got into photography shot a lot of photos of the Skyway Bridge in Burlington, Ontario. This composition was shot at night with a long exposure. What I really liked about the final composition was the light sky on the bottom right corner which was a reflection of the City of Hamilton. I also loved how the lights flared into the lens and the overall tungsten lighting with the cool sky colour. I did some clone stamping which didn’t turn out so well however was awesome for me at the time.

This is a shot of the moon rising over a cornfield during sunset. What I loved about this image was the drastic change in direction of the tree and the lack of any leaves on it. I also like the position of the Moon rising over the tree and field. I did enlarge the Moon to give it more detail. Like this image, I did this to add more visual interest and detail to the moon. With the lens used the moon is not that interesting or impressive as it was in person. I llike the tone of the image with the hint of blue sky.

A shot of the Rocky Mountains on the way out of British Columbia and entering Alberta. I was driving for about 16 hours at this point on our way back to Toronto from Vancouver and we were coming to the end of the range. This shot is not editied andthe clouds in it are real. I really loved the scene of this image and the huge blue sky. The sun was starting to set to the west (the shot facing east) so the mountains cast an incredible bluish green. We grabbed a lot of incredible images from this series, the weather and lighting were incredible.
