December 16, 2010 - Austria castle

December 15, 2010 - NZ seagull

This is probably my favourite bird.

December 14, 2010 - My SMC f/1.4 adaptor came

Decided to put up a few photos of people and things taken with my newish craigslist special lens. SMC f1.4 50mm. I am pretty happy with the results considering a fast lens like that for digital now a days is a pretty penny.

December 13, 2010 - Saturday's shoot

Had a lot of fun on saturday. Here is my favourite photo from the day.

December 12, 2010 - Battle Royal

Interesting chess game. Who do you think will win and why?

Really need to work through all the photos I have taken over the past 4 years. All 17,800 photos... eesh. maybe a christmas time activity?

December 7, 2010 - Old photos

well i didnt get around to taking a shot... so i decided instead to upload a few photos from my trip to new zealand with my wife.

December 6, 2010 - Popcorn fail.. but I win!

Well not quite popcorn. Attempt at making kettle corn which didnt work out too well. a little on the burnt side.

I entered the following photo in a contest that thepeak.fm was having about hidden gems in vancouver. This photo is taken from the top of seymour mountain from a few weeks ago. Pretty awesome view!

December 5, 2010 - Beach photos and random fly

Today was pretty good. Had another craigslist contact shoot which is always fun! Thanks you guys, it was a blast! Also had an interesting macro shot of a fly on a window which actually turned out much better then I had hoped.

December 4, 2010 - Festive dog and broke joy

Fun day today... nice clear blue skies and somewhat warm, for december. The broken mug was saved by my wife a while ago because she though i would find it interesting. I did. The second photo is of a dog that I met that is a therapy dog. It is trained in many things, one being caring a bag and wearing antlers.

December 3, 2010 - Evening concert

Had fun at evening concert. didn't have enough lighting or effort to wonder around and get some shots of the singers so instead i grabbed a few shots at f/1.4 of some graffiti on the street on my way home past hastings/nanaimo. Pretty good considering one is done at 1/5 of a second. Since I shoot them in RAW it was very easy to do some white balance correction.

December 2, 2010 - Alaska photo

Not taken today i am afraid.

Finally getting around to looking at some old photos. This one is on my emergency evacuation from Russia to the Alaska regional hospital. View is out of the medical jet. Pretty nice way to travel... but a little on the expensive side.

December 1, 2010 - New lens!

Finally received my adaptor to allow me to attach M42 lenses onto my k7. Here are a few shots that I took tonight when I was messing around with the DOF at f/1.4.
