A picture of our cat in a tree - because the internet does not have enough cat pics today

While shopping with my dearly beloved in some of the funky stores on Edmonton's Whyte Ave - where all the hippies hang out, I amused myself taking pics of some of the items on the shelves that caught my eye. Looked for a place in these forums to put this sort of "product photography" but...

Chalk Signs on the sidewalk on Whyte Ave, Edmonton Lensbaby Edge80 hence wonky exif.

The old Post Office on Whyte Ave in Edmonton - now an Italian restaurant, love the old architecture. Composer Pro + Edge 80

I usually don't like gnomes but maybe I'd make an exception for these one.

Whyte Ave - Edmonton AB Lensbaby Composer Pro + Edge80

Frozen Fog - Hoar Frost morning

This little pup does not seem at all affected by my flashes. Shot with off camera flash - one in my new "Strobies Dome" for ambient fill and a speedlight in a 7" reflector with a grid - mounted high pointing down.

Almost a picture Playing with Lensbaby - the "pinhole / zone plate" optic. I think this is a pinhole.

It finally arrived. Ordered a "Interfit Strobies Pro-Flash Diffusion Ball" from B&H back in January. It was back ordered, shipped on March 8 - arrived yesterday Mar 21st - via Purolater. Now I get the 'later' part of Puro-later. But nevertheless it arrived safe and sound which is what...

I'm thinking of adding an LED lighting system. Seems that the LED technology has come a long way in the past few years and I'm seeing more people recommend it. At a New Year's Bash I was at this year the organizers brought in a photographer who set up a self serve booth with some props and...

Did a photoshoot with my wife's new Teacup Yorkie pup. Ruby is about six months old and an active pup. I had tried to use my Lensbaby as that is my newest toy to play with, but soon learned that a manual focused funky tilty lens system is 'sub-optimal' to capture an active puppy. Switched to...

Time to learn how to play with my new toys. These two were shot with the Lensbaby Edge 80 on the Composer Pro I did learn that if the animal is moving, a manual focused tilty lens may not be your best choice in lenses - but when it works it, it works.

Be a contributer ... they said There won't be any ads ... they said Ya sure. ... Well except these ads. But I can live with it, and having a shoutbox takes away the big banner ad on top. And I did select the $10.95 annual option so maybe that just gets rid of some of the ads. And...

This just hit the funny bone - sure, new law comes into effect - better drop the prices and put them on sale.
