The Touch-a-Truck event is something that happens annually at the Canadian Canoe Museum in Peterborough. It’s a day where the parking lot fills with big trucks of all sorts. Fire trucks, ambulance, transport trucks, cement mixer, and even a zamboni! And the best part is kids (and kid like adults) can climb on and in every…
About a month ago, my brother said he had a couple free passes to Mosport – an International Speedway located about 25 minutes south of where I live. I was expecting it to be loud there, but not as loud as it actually was. I found it to be painfully loud and can see why…
Back in May, I went to a local classic car meetup with some family and friends. It was just down the street from a house we were staying at for the weekend and wasn’t really planned. We basically piled the kids into my buddy’s VW van and drove the 5 minutes to the show. I…
Back at the beginning of April, the fam jam drove down to Port Hope beach. We had no agenda, and were just looking for a quick change in scenery. There’s not much more to tell. We spent about an hour playing on the beach and at the park and going for a little walk before…
We’re pretty lucky to live where we live. Just up the road, there is a fairly large car show that is held every Thursday throughout the summer. It’s a good excuse to get outside and check out some cool cars. Also a great place to take some vintage cameras. Last Thursday, after our camera club…
Back at the start of 2016, I posted about some things I’d like to achieve photographically throughout that year, and one of those things was to shoot and develop large format film. At the time, I had my sights set on an Intrepid 4×5 camera, but I had a bunch of other stuff going on so it…
Two weeks ago, our camera club outing was at a 500 acre farm just north of Keene, Ontario.The black flies were out in full force, but the evening light was awesome, so we pushed through. We were given a guided tour of the property and walked for so long and far, that by the end of the…
This past weekend we met up with some family at a goat farm near Port Hope. We went there specifically for my wife to try goat yoga. Yes. You read that correctly. Goat yoga. Basically, the same as normal yoga, but with baby goats running around you and jumping on your back. Other than that,…
Although I’ve been shooting quite a bit lately, I haven’t posted anything on here in awhile. I’ve been focusing most of of photographic energy on a project I’m working on and and I don’t want to give away too much too soon, so I decided to share a couple photos taken over the past few weekends.…
Going out shooting with my 7 year old son is something that I don’t do enough of. It’s a way to get out and enjoy my hobby while spending time with family.. I try not to push too hard on the photography side of things and let him use some point and shoot cameras. It’s…
Last Saturday it rained, so we spent the day just lazing around the house. The rain eventually let up and the sun came out later in the afternoon, so my 7 year old and I each grabbed a camera and a roll of HP5 and headed downtown for a short photo walk. Before I took my…
When your evening plans fall through, just break out a carton of eggs, some food dye and water. This has become somewhat of a tradition for us. The kids really enjoy it and even though our youngest dropped a couple on the floor, he still had fun. Below are some of my favourite shots from…
