Inspired by Suzie’s post, I’ve decided to share some of my shots of Cowtown in all its (short-lived) green glory. I think the shortness of Calgary’s springs & summers is the very thing that makes them so precious – so take out your camera and go outside!
Here comes June, the month of torturous final exams, the month of enthusiastic, long-anticipated good-byes to the monotony of school; yet, it is a month of change and perhaps, with that, comes the aching of one’s heart. Whether it is transition into a new academic school year at the same school, transition from junior high to…

Over this spring break, I’ve had the most wonderful – most awe-inspiring, phenomenal, stupendous, extraordinary, and breath-taking (for “wonderful” simply isn’t enough to describe the awesomeness that had befallen upon me, so I take to abuse the thesaurus) – experience: school trip to LONDON and PARIS! I’ve always loved to travel and sight-see, but the trip…
Instead of spending my evening sprawled on the couch in sweats writing this blog post, in celebration of the long weekend, if not the rain that Fernie has been having, I went for a walk. At least rain makes things green and spring-like, which is why I brought my camera. Even if you didn’t go…
Here is a picture I snapped of a solitary zebra at the zoo while I was attending the YODA (Youth of Distinction Awards) ceremony earlier that day!
So I went walking downtown on the weekend and came across this wonderful little message written on the side of a building. I had to take a picture. It’s the little things like these that can make your day better. It’s surprising how much a little anonymous note can affect you. Although I do not…
Early sunrise photos are amazing…is the sky always blue to you? Traveling to Vancouver, British Columbia.
“All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.” – Susan Sontag The advancement in Photoshop technology has definitely changed the definition of photography. I personally had…
With our cities so well lit during nighttime, it’s hard to appreciate the world beyond our busy lives. What better else than electricity to light the way to success on a late study night? What would we do without the soft glow of our cell phones that enables us to connect to those who we…
This weekend my family and I went to Fernie B.C. I love the beauty of the mountains and the landscape of B.C. so I decided to go for a walk and take pictures of it. Of course, instead, I got hung up on this cool, derelict old bus thats been planted in a field next…
A couple weeks ago, I was able to catch a glimpse of one of the last penguin walks of the season. The King penguins at the zoo actually come out and “march” for spectators if they are feeling up to it: the temperature must be perfect, not too hot and not too cold. If you…
Such a delicate and fragile photo of a snowflake before melting. Perfectly acceptable seeing as spring should be making a late entry right around the corner, right? (fingers crossed)
To most, spring break is a time to stay up all night and then sleep long past dawn. Today I gave myself a challenge; wake up at 6:30 and be out taking pictures before sunrise. Here are my five favourites. Dawn photography is known for being awesome for, well, the dawn of course! A beautiful…
I’m on spring break still, and that’s awesome, but after a while, staying at home gets, well, boring… especially when you just got your wisdom teeth out and can’t do much! However, I had to make a gift for someone, and that’s when I got un-bored. On a recent vacation, I had seen some frames…
