Lytro: Capturing Life in Living Pictures
Introducing, potentially, the most versatile camera ever. Lytro is the name given to the newest advancement in cameras; the light field camera. The concept behind this camera is simple. “Shoot first, focus after.” This camera uses light field technology, which is a core concept in imaging science. Light fields describe the amount of light traveling…
Photo of the Day – Halifax Public Gardens
This shot was from last summer when I was visiting Nova Scotia. We took a stroll through Halifax’s beautiful public gardens and I went a little crazy with the camera. The gardens are really a perfect place to take photos, with all the lush vibrant colours to capture. With summer already upon us, I suppose I was feeling a…
Photo of the Day: View from the Top
My sister is getting married next year, and I can’t stop daydreaming about the details of the wedding! So sometimes, instead of studying for my (please don’t remind me) many exams, I like reading different wedding blogs, particularly photo blogs. This photo of the day was taken by a local photographer called “TLAW Photographer” who…
Photo of the Day: The Golden Hour
As per your guys’ challenge, here’s a view of spring. Nothing represents this beautiful weather better than the golden hour.
Regarding Heroes of our Time at the Glenbow Museum
Book at least half a day off, or better yet, the whole day, when you plan to visit the Glenbow Museum. Five hours inside the wonderfully captivating and compelling Glenbow Museum was not enough for this history buff.
Photo of the Day: Waterton, Alberta
This is a shot I took in Waterton, AB a couple Springs ago. It is taken at the top of the “Bear’s Hump Hike.” If you are ever in Waterton, I really recommend this hike simply for the amazing views it provides at the top. You can also capture a stunning shot of the entire town as…
Website of the Day: BestPlanking.com
Planking is a new trend that involves stiffly laying face down in an unusual setting. The photos that come out of it are pretty funny and some can be found on http://bestplanking.com/. There are photos in Vegas, Australia, New Zealand, on the news and more.

Urban Exposure Project 2011
Love for all, hatred for none. That’s what the word “community” means to many Calgarians, thanks largely to an initiative called the Urban Exposure Project by the Calgary United Way. For months, volunteer photographers (including my friend Irene Seto) have been taken to non-profit and community organizations around the city, including the Mustard Seed, the…
Photo of the Day: Truck on fire
Another photo I took during my 2009 internship with Metro Calgary.
Photo of the Day: Sunrise
One of the key aspects of photography is timing. I took this photo back in November at 7 a.m. when I was getting ready for school… I am not usually a dedicated enough photographer to wake up this early for a picture; so you could say that it was a lucky shot!
Photo of the Day: Cranston fire
This is a photo I took during my internship with Metro Calgary in 2009.
Photo of the Day: Untitled Shoot
I find this one funny, because when I import my photos with Lightroom, it asks me what the name of the photoshoot was. Since I only took a few pictures for this, I didn’t bother naming it. Lightroom then just named the picture “untitled shoot-3343.jpg”. Get it? It’s a potato shoot! 😀 Click to zoom…
