This is was more of a test shot, then a finished project. I decided to shoot my kids in a board room meeting. It would have been better to have the multiple person, wearing different outfits for each shot, and also having some drinks or papers on the table. Again this was just a test shot, and next time it will be more interesting. Already I have a couple of ideas. Now it’s just a matter of execution 🙂

Although it is March, winter here in Edmonton doesn’t show any signs of leaving. It was -20C on the weekend, with a nice 40-60km/h wind. I did go out to see if I can get some cool shots snow drifts. After almost getting stuck a couple of times, I gave up the adventure, and concentrated my efforts close to home, namely my backyard. The wind had been creating interesting patterns in the snow. I had to stand on a chair to give this more of a birds eye view. Almost got blown off a couple of times. Just so you can enjoy the final effect.
My brother in law wanted to have a nice holiday at the beginning of this year. So he and his wife decided to visit Egypt and the pyramids. Apparently they had a blast. From the pictures that he sent to me one struck me with a little cry for help. I asked his permission if I could play around with it, and showcase it on my blog, and he agreed.Here is his picture.
This saturday I decided to take my boys to the annual Edmonton Car Show. I took my camera just in case there might be some interesting photo opportunities. Well we arrived about an hour after the opening, and to my surprise it was almost full. So no photo opportunities what so ever. Boys had a lot of fun though, checking out every car possible. To me it wasn’t very exciting. Nothing special. The cool cars like Aston Martins, Land Rovers, where all locked up. Damn stuck up sales people. How do they want me to spend 100K on a car, if I can’t even sit inside? Out of the whole show I managed to shoot a photo that has absolutely nothing do to with the car show. We were having a quick snack, and this opportunity presented itself. Shot at high ISO, because I didn’t take my flash with me. Enjoy.
Couple of days ago, I discovered by accident, that there is a town near Edmonton, called Krakow. Now Krakow is one of the oldest cities in Poland, so normally I decided to visit this town here in Alberta. I left early, around 6:00 am, to be there around sunrise. It was cold this morning, around -25C. Dressed for the weather, got into my warm truck, and took off in search of Krakow, Alberta. Along the way the frozen country side did provide with a few photo opportunities.
When I finally arrived in Krakow, Alberta, I was a little disappointed. It turns out, that it consists of 3 little farms, and an old grain elevator, but no where does it signify that it is Krakow. According to the map it does, but that’s about it. The sun was rising at this time, so I decided to drive around a little to see what the area was going to offer. Here are some shots. Enjoy!
