A little day away…

We had the chance to head out to the Vancouver Aquarium yesterday. The forecast was for sunshine but unfortunately that didn’t come to pass. We ended up with a high overcast layer of cloud. Still, we think we managed to get some nice shots.
Here are the shots that I think are the better ones in the lot.
By the way, that little Monkey is a BUGGER to photograph! I’ve tried 3 times now and I’m still not 100% satisfied with the shots I’m getting. He’s in a dimly lit cage, and won’t stop fidgeting! Oh well, one day I’ll beat the little bugger!

Going through old shots. Here are a few more shots in the Thompson area, March ’09.
A – For the first 2 shots I exposed for the sun (so basically really underexposed the shot) and went black & white. These smaller versions don’t do the shots justice, but I was certainly pleased with the kind of solitary feeling I got.
B – The next 2 shots were taken at Pisew Falls outside Thompson. Quite neat to the the snow and ice formations from the fall’s mist.
The rest are just some neat shots.
Anybody longing warmer weather?

I’m particularly happy with the shot of Chris. I think it portrays her with a confidence and competency in a hobby she enjoys.
I’m also particularly happy with the shot of the robin. The multitude of small branches made it impossible to use the autofocus… so I had to go manual. Very happy with how it turned out.
The last two, well I was lucky as heck. The first presents the setup. As I was looking around I saw a Canada goose come in for landing. I JUST managed to train my camera on him and pull the trigger on the shutter as he slid-in for landing. I think I captured a neat moment there.
Sorry for the quiet time…

… been kinda distracted of late.
Here’s a couple of shots that I took this part spring in Stanley Park. Chris and I were just walking around Stanley Park and were next to a pond not from the Vancouver Aquarium. I particularly like the second shot; it’s like the crow is looking back at me asking “What? What did I do?”.
Either way, here they are.
