Shots from the Opening Social

Thanks to my good friend Levi, we have some shots from the gallery social. It had slowed down a bit and he was able to get some great atmosphere shots. Well done Levi!

Cafe Ibis

We had a fun evening Friday night at the Gallery opening at the Cafe Ibis. Free coffee and snacks and lots of friends. Thanks to all of you for your support. The Cache Magazine also did a cover story on me which was OK too. I pasted a link below. Here is a shot of the establishment during a live bands performance late one Friday evening. It is a fusion of 6 pictures at different exposures in an effort to get the cool flowers and the band.

Northern Alberta

I had a nice trip to northern Canada for business and caught some shots along the way. This old thrasher on the side of the road caught my attention for a while. This is an HDR converted to Sepia in Lightroom. I found a great Catholic church with cemetery and this little shrine where they light candles. It was another drive by discovery in the little town of Beaumont. I can't explain my enjoyment of catching sunrises in cemeteries but I do. Perhaps one day I'll have enough for a gallery of photos that no one would ever put on their wall eh?
