Fall Rhapsody Photowalk – Recap

What a day!  Our Fall Rhapsody Photowalk was a success!  The day was gorgeous.  We just couldn’t have had more perfect weather.  I was fortunate to have a wonderful group participating who rolled with the punches while we waited for some stragglers.  Ren, where are you?

Sadly, we actually had a few people who never did find us.  We’ll be looking at how we can avoid that in the future.  My apologies to all those who were MIA.

Once we got underway the grounds at Mackenzie King Estate were beautiful albeit a little crowded.  The light hitting the autumn colours was outstanding.  There were so many striking elements to capture and so much variety.  Below are a few of the moments I was able to capture along with a group shot compliments of Ron Bets.  Thanks for sending that my way Ron!

The Wind, The Waves & The Brave

A couple of evenings ago, I got out of the office in the late afternoon and headed to the beach with the family.  We enjoyed a picnic supper and some R&R time.  Toward the end of the evening we made our way to one of a break waters and I took a few shots.  These ones are dedicated to a friend of mine who used to windsurf a lot.  I think he’d like to get back into it and I’m hoping this will give him the push he needs.  There is a large community of windsurfers that hits the beach almost daily not far from his house.  So my friend…GET YOUR BUTT IN GEAR!

Maybe next time these types of shots will have my buddy in them.   Enjoy!

WordPress 2.8 ~ A Worthwhile Upgrade

WP_old2newJust upgraded to WordPress 2.8 and I’m liking the speed boost in the dashboard. It’s slight but I’ll take it. Loads of other cool back end features worthy of checking out. Check out the video over on the WordPress blog http://wordpress.org/development/

Thanks WordPress!

What a blast!  Recently I had the pleasure of working with Taryn.  She was a delight and did a wonderful job.  It’s not everyday you meet someone who has it all together, but that’s Taryn for sure.  She’s a highly intelligent, down-to-earth young women with beauty to spare.  I look forward to the next opportunity we have to work together.  Thanks for the great times Taryn.
