Moments of Solitude
With all of the craziness happening in the world around us, we can all use some moments of solitude to reflect and re-focus.
Forest Compositions at Niagara Glen
This article features a number of forest compositions recently captured handheld at Niagara Glen Nature Centre. It discusses some of the compositional considerations used.

Lowville Park Landscape Images
This article features some Lowville Park landscape images captured handheld using the M.Zuiko 12-100 mm f/4 IS PRO zoom lens. A friend and I were on our way to Elora (a possible subject for another posting) and decided to stop in to photograph the fall colours at Lowville Park in Ontario.
Tobermory Cruise
This article shares some images taken during a Tobermory Wave Adventure Cruise my wife and I did several weeks ago. Tobermory is a well-known shipwreck diving location. There is also a ferry terminal from which the Chi-Cheemaun sails to Manitoulin Island and back. Tobermory is a very popular destination to hike the Bruce Trail.
Using Live ND in New Zealand
This article discusses using Live ND in New Zealand during a photography tour my wife and I did in late 2024. Live ND is a computational photography technology that is available on a number of Olympus/OM cameras. It provides an in-camera effect similar to using a neutral density filter.
Whakarewarewa Forest Compositions
This article shares some handheld images taken in Whakarewarewa Forest which is near Rotorua on the North Island of New Zealand. We spent about an hour and a half exploring some of the walking trails, as intermittent rain fell.
Pancake Ice
Some pancake ice formed along the shoreline of Lake Erie recently, and I was fortunate enough to get out with friend to capture some images of this phenomenon.
New Zealand 20 Years Later
This article, New Zealand 20 Years Later, looks back over the past two decades, and our various trips to this wonderful country. My wife and I just returned from an extended photography tour of New Zealand, spending 4 weeks on the ground. We have been very fortunate to have been able to travel to New Zealand six times over the past twenty years.
Winter Lakeside Scenes with HDR2
Yesterday I drove along the southern shore of Lake Ontario and stopped at a few locations to capture some winter lakeside scenes with HDR2 (high dynamic range). There was a good amount of snow and ice along the shore of the lake, coupled with some very harsh sunlight. So, I decided to do some test images using my E-M1X’s HDR2 technology.
