    I really enjoyed the training, Andrew put information in a format that was easy to understand. With the small group, Andrew had time to spend with each of us helping understand our cameras. I feel much more comfortable getting off Auto and onto manual!!!

    As a regular visitor to Bethanga General Store for coffee I was walking towards the store for my regular extra hot flat white when I noticed the former chapel had been sold.Gold was discovered here in the 1850s. The tiny village grew for so few years until the seam ran out. Now it's a sleepy, beautiful spot in the Victoria foothills!

    I love exploring Toronto, where I've been living for a while now, with a camera, or more often just with a mobile phone. And looking for unusual angles. This place in the center of downtown on King Street always looks different depending on the weather, time of day, wind... This time I was shooting late in the evening and waiting for the flag to straighten out.Shot on a Samsung s21 mobile phone, edited in an editor Snapseed/

    This shot was taken along with 3000 others images on my first ever photo shoot during Covid. I hired a model I had seen and had come to do pool shots with another Photographer and he suggested I hire her and conceptualize the shoot. I?m not a professional and had no props but I bought some fabric and I used my leaf blower to make that effect. I periodically go back to those pictures and rework them with my iPhone apps for varying effects. You can see more of my work on Instagram. That day creat

    Thank you for considering my photo for Photo of the Week! I have a number of bottle brush trees in my back yard, and birds love the blossoms when they bloom in the Spring. I usually see numerous hummingbirds and sparrows, but I saw this gorgeous bird one afternoon resting in the branches. I was able to get a couple of shots off before it flew away.
