Stop motion photography produces some of the coolest videos on youtube and I thought I would try my hand at it. I started to play around with some sticky tack and ended up getting a story out of it. The whole story is comprised of 184 photos.
Here is another short one I made just before [...]

Okay, so I don’t really have insomnia, but my sleeping schedule has been really messed up lately. And, since it is so quiet and peaceful at this hour (4:30am) I was inspired to take some pictures.
I have done very little work with lighting but am starting to experiment with it and so far the results [...]

After a few failed attempts, I have finally come up with what I think to be a respectable moon shot. I’ve been waiting all week for the full moon and luckily there were a few breaks in the clouds tonight and I was able to get some pictures. After a little bit of sharpening in [...]

This referendum asks: “Which electoral system should Ontario use to elect members to the provincial legislature?” Your choices are “The existing electoral system (First-Past-the-Post)” or “The alternative electoral system proposed by the [...]

I’ve uploaded some pictures that have been sitting on my computer for about a month. They were taken in Kingston and are just of various things. Here are a few samples; you can view the rest in the Miscellaneous Album.

I came across this on YouTube and I couldn’t help but post it. Take from it what you will, there are so many things that come to mind when watching this video; I just can’t help but laugh when I see it. Not only because it is funny, but just so mind boggling!

The recent upgrades to my site have allowed me to play around with a lot of new features. To take advantage of some of these, I decided to change the theme of my gallery. The layout is still pretty much the same, but the way content is displayed is more interactive than it used to [...]

For the past month or so I’ve been noticing specs of dust on pictures taken with my Nikon D70s. This means that I have some dust on my camera’s sensor that needs to be removed. There are many ways to clean a sensor and different people will suggest different methods. I chose the blower method [...]

YouTube, the holy grail of online video hosting, is about to shoot itself in the foot by introducing “bumper” ads to its videos. It is claimed that these 30 second advertisements will be attached to the beginning of videos. Are you kidding me? 30 seconds?! That is a total turn off considering the average internet [...]

Well, I finally took the plunge and made an attempt at updating Wordpress (my blogging platform), Gallery2 (my gallery platform) as well as the WPG2 plugin (which integrates the two). I don’t have a very good track record when it comes to doing these types of upgrades individually let alone all at once. However, I [...]

For my Wealth and Poverty class this week, one of my readings is by Plutarch, a Greek biographer and moralist (46 A.D-120 A.D.) who was very influential and even a source of inspiration for many of Shakespeare’s works. I would like to share a few of his statements regarding the Love of Wealth from his [...]

Boy it has been hard to get on here and write since school has started and things are getting busy. However, last week I did have a chance to take some macro photographs in my room. I don’t have a studio or anything so I just set my camera on the tripod and used my [...]
