John near Adelaide Street West

__________

Being outside after the rain - just when the sun is coming out could be one of my favourite times to take photos. I was shooting an article for BlogTO the other day when this occurred. This is one of the images from that shoot. The Fat Belgian, in the middle, must be one of the nicest bars I've been to in Toronto, the interiors is absolutely gorgeous.

G20 Protestors

__________

I was on my way to a shoot yesterday when I noticed this coming out of Osgoode station. Shot around 5:30, there was a lot of police presence around, and I believe CTV news was also setting up to shoot live. I don't think I saw one person who wasn't dressed as a hippy protesting - that's always good for your cause.

Warm Summer Sunset

__________

I have been "twitpicing" a few images of sunsets recently which prompted this image. I love living in the west end because the sunsets can get really intense over here. This specific image was taken during the summer solstice.

Drinking Coffee on a Balcony

_________

There's nothing like having a nice coffee on a warm summer day with a beautiful view. There really isn't. Neven was minding his own business until I started shooting him, but this was the first natural shot from the series of photographs. We were later talking about how the balcony keeps getting reworked into the blog which has been totally unintentional.

I've also have been profiling local businesses for BlogTO. Here is an article for Filter, a local design store in the east end of the Toronto core. I shot the images but did not write the article.

A Room in Milan

__________

I don't know what happened to this image, but it wasn't in my Lightroom catalogue until I got version 3. This was a room I split with a buddy in Milan in front of the train station back in 2008. The coffee and food was probably the best out of anywhere I've been.

Sander van Doorn - Renegade (Timelapse Music Video)

_________

This is a new project I'm working on where I'm merging timelapses and music into one package. The first one is Sander van Doorn - Renegade from Trance Energy 2010 as seen in the video. I will be doing many more of these. It took awhile to figure out the right setting in order for YouTube to accept such a large HD file, but I finally got it, that's why today's post is a little late.

update: won't be doing as many of these as I thought I would be, but they WILL definitely appear here and there
