Yes, this is a fan. Yes, it’s at my desk. No, I didn’t go for a photowalk today.

Let me out
For this potted plant (whatever it is… I don’t know, I don’t have a green thumb) getting out in the sun is probably a bad idea. Global warming notwithstanding, when it’s this sunny here in January, it’s cold. That’s a universal truth. Better to stay in and soak up the Vitamin D through double-paned glass.

Saturday Morning
Drinking coffee by the window, soaking in the warmth of the low autumn sun.
Blinds casting shadows, camera at hand. White, brown, gold and black. Click.
All of a sudden it’s Friday
Conference calls on a sunny autumn morning. Low sun streaming through the blinds, hitting the fan. Better that than the other stuff.
Grab the camera.

Seems fitting for a day like today.

How does it feel to treat me like you do?
When you’ve laid your hands upon me and told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken, I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now, how do I feel
Those who came before me lived through their vocations
From the past until completion, they’ll turn away no more
And still I find it so hard to say what I need to say
But I’m quite sure that you’ll tell me just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn’t for your misfortune, I’d be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken, and I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel
Tell me now, how should I feel
Now I stand here waiting
I thought I told you to leave me when I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel, when your heart grows cold, grows cold, coldWriters: BERNARD SUMNER, GILLIAN LESLEY GILBERT, PETER HOOK, STEPHEN PAUL DAVID MORRIS

The Peanut in Acros

We have this great peanut-shaped lamp in our living room; a study in minimalism, it has clean lines and gives off a nice, diffuse glow.
I’ve always wanted to shoot it, but there are only so many ways it can be shot with visual interest. Then it hit me: what about a double exposure?
These are all in-camera Acros double exposures on my X-T2, straight out of camera.

Câline de blues

A blue sky is something to be celebrated at this time of year. It’s all too rare.
They say you get the blues when you’re down; I find blue in the right places uplifting. Liberating. Light.

Time for a drink
It’s Friday night, after all!

Where’d the blue go?
Nothing more to say.
Catching some rays
Ottawa doesn’t have a lot of great architecture, but there are still a few striking buildings downtown. The recent temporary home of the Bank of Canada – previously the EDC Building – is a prime example. Simple and elegant.
Looks great in colour on a sunny day.

Not too shabby in mono, either.
