Shooting the shooter

Deddeda Stemler, on assignment for the Globe and Mail, shoots me for a story the Globe is doing on the Duncan totem photo policy. Last I heard, the story is supposed to run in the Wednesday, Sept. 26 issue. It was a great pleasure for me too meet Deddeda and I learned a fair bit just watching her in action. She has a great portfolio online at www.deddeda.com.

Contre Jour

I love shooting against the sun. This was on a boating trip from Nanaimo through the Gulf Islands on Saturday. For those of you who are wondering, "contre jour" translated from French means "against the day." It's a photographic term used for shooting into the sun - or any main light source, for that matter.

Stupid

There's absolutely nothing wonderful about this picture. It's just that every now and again, you see a sign that's so stupid it just begs to be shot. You'd think that if the term "hand brake" is going to be used in a sign, a more appropriate icon would have been used. I like to thank BC Ferries for providing me with this laugh.
