Pearls

This is by far my favorite photo I took from Tara's wedding day.
I love the candid & raw the photo is.

Thanks again Tara for allowing me to be a part of your special day.

Unedited

Some pictures that I took & forgot about that are completely unedited. I saw these & fell in love. Nature is so beautiful.

More Spooky...

Here are the last of my photos from my walk around our Boat Launch.

I do see that the last photo is a little bit crooked.. Definitely a situation when a tripod would come in handy.

Next up... Thunder Bay gets covered in snow!

Just a Few More

I only have a couple more to share after this batch from my walk through the Waterfront.

I didn't realize how many photos I actually took! It's funny because when going through the pictures, I weeded out the ones I liked and put them into one folder and I'd be like "wow I really don't like this one but let's see what I can do with it.." That's when I'd get to editing and then I would fall in love with the end result...

So I guess moral of the story is .... edit your photos? :)

Proud Amateur

It's amazing what kind of magic can happen with a few tweaks to brightness, contrast, colour, tint & saturation!

I know they're not the best or anything and I'm way BELOW amateur level, but I'm super proud of these photos.

Playing Around With Colour

Probably some of my favorite photos yet!
While editing, I wasn't shy with contrast, colour, etc... I really played around and I'm loving how these turned out.
I'm also loving these new settings that I've discovered... it's amazing how much "manual focus" can change the potential of a photo!

Boom-De-Ad-A-I love the WHOLE WORLD

Some photos taken at one of our local parks here in town.
Finn Pride!

Nature is Beautiful

I'm starting a new blog to keep all my photos in one place.
I'll still be keeping my old blog just because I like to reminisce.. and on this new blog I'll still be posting recipes from time to time.

I probably won't post in the other one much (or ever) but I have nice memories in there like my Florida trip or Camping memories and I've been using that blog a long time.. so I think it's only right to keep it around!

With this new blog, you can expect actual direction and purpose for posts (wh-what?!). Here, I will be focusing on my 2 main interests... cooking & photography. Basically, these 2 things are hobbies that I feel I'm actually kind of good at and I'd like a place to document it.. sort of like a portfolio.

Follow along, don't follow along.. comment, don't comment.. it's not a big deal to me. It would be nice to have some constructive criticism however in order to keep improving everyday!

Hmm.. k bye!
