Toronto Zombie Walk 2010

They rose from the dead, and then strolled around the streets of Toronto in search of… Well, they may not be real zombies, but the Annual Zombie Walk in Toronto does rate as one of the more spectacular things to hit the streets this year. Nearly 10,000 people were dressed in various states of ripped and blood-stained clothing, depicting everything from soldiers to cows, all resurrected from the dead and eager to amble. The cool and wet weather didn’t seem to dissuade these brain munchers from getting up this morning.

Leith in the Leaves

An afternoon raking leaves turned into a photo shoot with my nephew Leith. He loved the idea of jumping in the leaves after they were piled high. The warm weather and brilliant sun made the day.

While staying at my cottage through September, I decided to head out and photograph a portion of this year’s Corduroy Enduro event, which is held each year in the Gooderham area (North of Peterborough, ON), and not too far from where I was staying. These photos represent a good portion of the action at the event.

Landscape Photography

I decided to help out a friend in need by taking photos of her landscaping projects this summer. We toured a few of the locations to get some nice images of what had been created, with the idea of adding the images to her online portfolio.

International Air Show

I spent the afternoon on a friend’s roof top in downtown Toronto shooting the air show. All the photos I took were using a 1000mm reflex lens, which is fixed at f/10, and it is nearly impossible to focus and maintain a decent framing due to the extreme magnification and lens weight. I was impressed that I was able to obtain this selection of images.

Lunar Eclipse

There was a lunar eclipse last night over most of the East Coast of North America, so I stayed up late (early) to photograph it. The event begain around 5:00am and lasted about two hours before it was all over. The photo montage shown here is a collection of images taken through the duration of the event, and demonstrate the dramatic colour change that occurs.

World Enduro Canada 2007

Another year passes, and I find myself again up in Parry Sound photographing the World Enduro races. This was the second year in a row there, and hopefully one of many more to come in the future. I spent three days combing the hills around the timed events trying to find niches for good photographs, and trying to capture the essence of what a WEC race is all about. Did I succeed?

Martha’s Vineyard Vacation

I was recently down in Martha’s Vineyard for a friend’s wedding, so I took advantage of the beautiful local scenery for my own portfolio. I was only there for a few days, but I managed to see most of the island and snap a few memorable images of the trip.

Martha’s Vinyard Wedding

I went to Marth’a Vinyard recently for a long weekend to be a part of a friend’s wedding, and managed to snap a few pictures despite being extremely hung over from the previous night’s escapades. The setting on the island was perfect for the event, and the simple gathering was very romantic, and we couldn’t have asked for better weather.

First Birthday Party

There’s something about a child’s birthday that brings out the smile, and the chocolate cake! Leith celebrated his first in style, inviting a few friends to join in the event, share the cake, and wear funny hats.
