Today was the first snowfall, and like many years, it was enough to make a real mess of driving and cause too many accidents. It seems that over the summer many people forget how to drive. We went to an old sawmill north of Shannonville, Ontario to shoot with Two friends. It was cold considering people were mowing grass yesterday, what a change! This is a shot that Andree helped me to find. I love waterfalls and moving water because with a slow shutter, it just looks wonderful.

Things have been very busy for me lately and I haven't really gotten out for a lot of new shooting other than concert stuff. I am currently preparing to move to a new job, among other things. This photograph is one that I made about 8 years ago in Queensport, Nova Scotia. To me, it shows a slice of the maritimes and I really like it, hope you do too.

While on a shoot not far from Kingston, I came across this lone tree. Lone trees seem to interest lots of people and when it is right beside what looks like a small burial plot, it gets even more interesting, at least to me. The scene seems to have a dark, moody feel and I really like it. Thanks for taking a look, hope you like it.

Judi and I have owned a house on the east coast for almost 12 years and in that time, I have photographed there a lot. One of the things I am attracted to there is the maritime way of life, the things you immediately might think of as "Nova Scotia life". To me, I think of the fishing industry as a way of life there and I try to capture as much of that as I can. If I go there in the spring, you may hit lobster season and lobster are fished pretty close to shore, you can often see the fishermen (and women) hauling in pots right from shore. I've traveled all over the province but still, nothing is more enjoyable than seeing and photographing some of the things that make the Canadian maritimes unique.

I've recently posted a couple of panning abstracts that I kind of liked so I thought I'd post this as well. If you haven't already guessed it, this is rushing water in a river. Sometimes just isolating a small area makes for an interesting photograph.
