Weekend on Lake Cecebe

... just spent a great weekend with a old friend (pictured here in his grandfather's pose).
I liked the contrast between the old artifacts lit with incandescent and the subject lit with strobe.
The location is Lake Cecebe, near Magnetewan, Ontario - one of this province's jewels!

Green Living Show

Toronto's "Green Living Show" took place last weekend and featured some incredible new products and technologies that promise to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and improve the quality of life for us all - and in particular, our children and grandchildren. But, according to keynote speaker Stephen Lewis, these technologies alone will not be enough to save us from an ecological catastrophe. A global effort to prohibit additional coal-fired power plants and reduce the emissions from existing plants is necessary.

Singer-Songwriter Shoot

I recently had the pleasure of reconnecting with an old friend from Quadra Island. Opal, a singer-songwriter now pursuing her musical career in Toronto, hired me to photograph her for various publicity shots as well as her CD Cover. We spent a couple of days shooting on location and in studio.
