Out of work
As of january 6th 2009, the company I worked for decided to close the doors on it’s division in Banff. Due to many factors the jobs in my area are few and far between so I am still unemployed at this time.
In the meantime I am doing alot of portrait/portfolio shoots and hoping that someday it will be my source of income.
Keep watching for more images as time permits.

Experimenting with HDR
After viewing numerous wonderful HDR works on RedBubble I decided I would like to try it. I have been trying three different programs so far. Can anyone recommend a good one and provide details how you make the image look like a painting.
Examples are barbershop by Mike Savad and numerous other artists.
I know about taking different exposures, I would like to know what the best program is …
WINTER HAS ARRIVED
Yes it snowed a few inches and it is still snowing here in the Canadian rockies near Banff. It is a heavy wet snow making the tree brances bend under the weight.
I am suppose to do art in the park but it may not go. If it does I wil partake if I can find a tarp or tent to cover the table.
This show also goes on tomorrow as it is the last long weekend of the summer.

in a slump
Seems to happen every year where I go for a long time without taking any photos.
Or I am up at 8650 feet at ski hill without camera. Been wanting to try and get up there at sunrise it would be awesome.
Flu or whatever I had did not last long and resulted in no lost work days , shucks, lol.
