Bee Macro Goodness

Man, have I been inactive on here? Well, here's some new photos I shot last week. I'm honestly not much of a bee person, so when I was invited to shoot them I was definitely not expecting to see such a huge diversity of bees from here in Saskatchewan. Still, you learn something new every day! Enjoy!

Mando Mercs - Kal Runi - Photo Phriday

These photos all came from a Photo Shoot I did back in August (geez, is it almost November already?) and I thought I would finally post some of the b+w's I shot at the time. The locale for the shoot was a place I had discovered quite by accident about a month and a half prior to shooting there: Wascana Trails. It's about a 20 km drive from Regina City Centre and is a great walking/biking/horse riding trail for those interested, nevermind a great photo spot. We're now entering the winter months so I doubt any photos I'll be posting over the next couple months will be there but, that being said, you can likely expect it being used as a locale for some photos in the future.

Photo Phriday!

It's a month later, you know what that means... Photo Phriday!! So I do have a few legitimate excuses for missing the last month of Photo Phridays (and general photo posting) - I was moving, I was on vacation, my work hours shifted dramatically - but ultimately they are just excuses. In any case, I've got a tonne more similar to the above to post in the near future, plus photos from my vacation, plus photos from other events.. but when they go up is still yet to be determined. In any case, I'll post what I can, when I can. Until then, my apologies for the delay, I am still here and I'll try to get back onto the Photo Phriday schedule if nothing else. Cheers!

August 5 Photos

Missed another Photo Phriday and do you know why that's so horrible? I had photos ready to go I just didn't get home in time to post. Gah! Well, here ARE the photos that were going to go up. My wife and I went for a walk on a beautiful day here in Regina and I decided to take a few quick photos of her.

That isn't my wife, btw. I did take a couple photos that weren't of her.

The above photo is a good example of not preparing for the photo properly. The day was extremely bright out, what with the sun being out an' all, and the result was some extremely high contrast. Now high contrast in and of itself isn't bad as you can get some awesome photos with high contrast. However, if you aren't preparing for it (like I wasn't) you can get some heavy, distracting shadows that you probably don't want. How do you get rid of high contrast you ask? Turn on the flash function on your camera (this will help light up areas the sun is missing), just an evenly lit area (during sunny days, try completely shaded spots) or by a reflector! There's your quick photography tips for the day!
