Past Light

 I was walking into a pub when I got a message that an old friend of mine had passed away last weekend. Upon reflection, it somehow felt right that I would find out then. Our lives had taken different directions but in our younger days, we spent a fair amount of time together in pubs and on other adventures. He was a gentle soul but always up for fun and sometimes a touch of crazy. I am so glad for the times we had and will remember him fondly. My condolences to his family and friends. Rest in Peace Norm.

Some Day Light

 Every time I walk past this I think "Someday I'm going to take a photo of this." So today I did.

Reminiscing About the Light

 I was sitting at the computer today when this photo came up on my desktop. I always really liked the photo and decided today I need to share it. I went through 11 years of posts on my blog because I thought I must surely have posted it before. Well, I hadn't but I was reminded of how my photography has changed and grown over the years.

 

I decided to look up this little one to see what it was. Still don't know.  

Seeing With a New Light

 Well, it's the camera that's new but it lets the light in. 

 Thanks for shooting with me Shilpa!

Some Light Swimming

I think if Shilpa could spend all day, every day in the water, she would. 

 

 

 

Summer Light

I may have used that title before. That's ok, it is the season almost. You should see more outside photos like this of Shilpa from me.

 

Ancient Light

 The face appears ancient but isn't. The camera that took the photo is very old, but not ancient. It's the photographer.

Cherry Blossoms in the Light

 Cherry Blossoms in Vancouver. You either love them or, don't. I had never gone out and photographed cherry blossoms thinking, "I'll do it next year, maybe." Shilpa and I decided this was the year. 

 

Eyes in the Light

She said "I want blue eyes." Ask and you shall receive.

 

New Year, New Light

What better way to start the new year with a blog post. We took this a while back and I thought it was time to post it. We thought we'd try some straight up window light and it worked out quite well. Can't wait for the next project to put up here.

Found Still Life

Or, another little lost shoe. Some time ago, someone painted the lamp standard. More recently a young child lost their shoe, which just happened to be the same colour as the lamp standard. A short time later someone put the shoe up on the pole, probably with the slight hope the child would come back to find it. This is how I found it.
