Hey Mom, I’m a Star!

Posted on February 27, 2012 by alan

Long long time no type. Lately I’ve been blogging a bit on my photography site and naval gazing on twitter and mucking around a bit on Google+. Lately the one interesting thing is I’ve somehow managed to get featured in two videos. Yup, you can see my ugly mug by going to… http://www.scorpionsoft.com/levelplatforms and watching …

Attack of Spider-Zilla

Posted on September 30, 2009 by alan

Noticed what (to me) is a huge spider outside the back door, positioned very nicely for a little photo shoot. I called him Spider-Zilla or Spidersaurus Rex. Oh, and he’s not that big compared to “real” spiders, but viewing the images at 1:1 zoom on my monitor? Freaky eyes. Cool that I was able to …

Posted on May 27, 2009 by alan

Finally got around to blogging about the Vancouver Strobist meetup that I went to a couple of weeks ago to learn more about off-camera lighting. Read about it over at my photography blog: http://k20dblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/may-strobist-newbie-meetup.html.

What a Storm!

Posted on May 11, 2009 by alan

Had an absolutely incredible rainstorm here earlier this evening, torrents of rain, wind, thunder, lightning, etc. Got a couple of shots off of the rain and wind hitting the tree in the front yard. Sadly I’m not that good at conveying or capturing the power of the rain that there was…

Just a quick post of a picture of the train yard across from the Coquitlam (I think) station on the way home today, shot with my LX3.

Vancouver Beginner Strobist Meetup

Threw a bit of a writeup and some pics from the meetup I went to last weekend up on my photography blog.

Quick Pic

Posted on February 3, 2009 by alan

Some friends and I went out to take pictures in downtown Vancouver a few weeks ago (when the fog was here)… got some nice ones and have them sitting in a ‘to process’ pile that I just haven’t managed to get my brain into getting to. Was doing some other stuff so I figured I’d …

New Stealth Camera Bag Pics

Posted on January 26, 2009 by alan

So I finally got around to throwing up some pics to Flickr of my “Stealth Camera Bag” which I raved about before. The inspiration came from this article (via lifehacker). The idea is simple, take a generic and boring looking messenger bag and fit it with foam and padding to protect a camera so you …
