*....or so the story goes. Once upon a time, Ryan suggested to Melissa that they start a 'blog'. To which Melissa said, "We are not blog people!" And so here we are. We are teaching ourselves photography, taking the camera everywhere with us. This little blog is meant to show off shots we are proud of, and to give you a glimpse into our adventures. Comments always welcome!

Construction

Once again, sorry for the lack of posts. We have both had a long week of overtime and weird shifts. Finally we were able to get out of the house, at least for a walk, without any rain. More to come.

Melissa wasn't too crazy about this one. I will post one where everything IS in focus.
But I thought the shallow depth of field looked kind of cool.

X Marks The Spot

Funny little story. Here I am at Queen and Carlaw. I look up and think, "hmmm might be a cool pic" The next day i was show Melissa my pics, and she laughed when she saw this one. She was at the opposite end of town at work, outside on a break, looked up and saw the same vapour trails and thought, "hmm might be a cool pic"

My first Caribana

My fist visit to Caribana

Living so close to the parade route, why not go down and check it out? So while Melissa was stuck in Caribana traffic going to work, I grabbed my camera and headed down to the lakeshore.

Nous Sommes Famille

Amelie, Sebastien & Josienne were at our engagement party and asked me to get a picture of the three of them. They are such a happy trio. I couldn't resist shooting them as they got ready for the actual 'pose'. These four shots below are shot all in a row. I like how the series captures a moment between siblings. -shot by Ryan
