lens rentals canada review

I have wanted to try out a lens for awhile but couldn’t justify blowing 2500 bucks on it before at least playing with it. Testing with it in stores for a few 5-10 minutes just doesn’t cut it for any practical usage for the type of photography that you do. Plus there’s so much pressure [...]

Lunenburg

Lunenburg

First morning up, woke up to this when I looked out the window. The town is beautiful, the people are soooooooo nice! I don’t think I’ve said hi to a stranger in Toronto for awhile; over here, everyone takes the initiative to greet you. Staying at a Bed and Breakfast with The Deck House, Dave [...]

i’m so lost without you

I’ve taken you to NYC, LA, San Diego, San Francisco and countless places here at home. You’ve found the way when I’m lost. It’s been fun while it lasted…but it’s time to move on. Yeah…my GPS unit died

do anyone make real sh*t anymore?

do anyone make real sh*t anymore?

Recently, I got my hands on a Nikon Super Wide Angle AF-S Zoom 17-35mm f/2.8D ED-IF, which I shot here. Not only was the lens built like a tank, but the case it came with could also withstand some major punishing. This leather-bound piece of craftsmanship can no longer be found in newer products. It [...]

$50000 ring

$50000 ring

It has been awhile where I felt a sense of accomplishment, but this is it. Though I don’t know if engineering is truly what I want to do, I [...]

The gallery on display is called “Portraits from Above” documenting Hong Kong’s rooftop communities by Rufina Wu and Stefan [...]

DIY gel holders

A cheap and effective way of holding gels to your speedlights is to use Velcro. However attaching the Velcro directly on to the piece of gel will reduce it’s life and waste the Velcro when you have to replace it. Not that gels are expensive by any means, but I save where I can. I [...]

secure hot shoe mount

Being the cheapskate that I am, I take care of my gear because I can’t afford to replace them. When you’re putting a speedlight on a stand, for those of us with some of the newer speedlights (like an SB900 @ $500+), you are putting a lot of money into a very high place. Even [...]

subtle HDR preset – thirty bench winery

I’m a fan of HDR’s and I could spend hours tweaking one to perfection (my version of perfection anyways). I personally have nothing against HDR’s and have an appreciation for them as a methodology to to simply increase the range or a style when going for the dramatic, rendered effect. When executed with care, they [...]
