Bruno’s project – July & August – Go Jump in a Lake

Much of the summer months in Bruno’s project appear to have happened at Emma lake.  It was a good summer.  Lets just say that when someone tells him to “go jump in a lake”, he takes them very literally. Some People Just Look Good in Hats His first July photo “some people just look goodContinue reading “Bruno’s project – July & August – Go Jump in a Lake”

Eva’s project – August

Eva’s project is now well over half way done.  August has been another good month here, although it did end a little colder than expected. Eva’s August saw both paddle boarding and ice cream, and no one could ever complain about that. Under Broadway Week 32 “under broadway” is just me hanging out with EvaContinue reading “Eva’s project – August”

Portraits of Stitch – a senior Boston terrier

Stitch is an 11 year old Boston terrier belonging to Serena, one of my friends at work.  He had a bit of a health bump earlier this year, so Serena asked me to do a photo session with him.  I was happy to oblige.  He is a great pup – super handsome and well behaved.Continue reading “Portraits of Stitch – a senior Boston terrier”

Eva’s project – July

July was a good month.  Lots of time spent out of the city at the cabin.  For Eva this meant swimming, canoe rides, and chill time.  I think I captured some of that here. Incognito Week 27 “incognito” was in response to a hats challenge in the 52 weeks group.  Eva has a tiny head,Continue reading “Eva’s project – July”

Eva’s project – June

Hard to believe that the project is now half finished.  June saw a darn good puddle, deal making and dock jumping. The Official Start to Summer Week 23 “the official start of summer” featured a staple of summer in our family – dock diving at the cabin.   No fancy dogversation to go with, asContinue reading “Eva’s project – June”

Bruno’s 2016 project – May and June

May and June have come and gone.  And five more photos have been added to Bruno’s project.  Enjoying what summer has to offer – plus a little light reading.  He really is a good dog. Take Me Out to the Ball Game His first May photo “take me out to the ball game” was fromContinue reading “Bruno’s 2016 project – May and June”

Eva’s project – May

May saw some some beautiful spring weather in Saskatoon.  Perfect for a photo project.  Lens flare, fresh grass, Eva’s namesake from WALL-E, and a three part portrait at the lake. Halo Week 19 “halo” was a back-lit photo in the park.  Love the way her crazy ear hair glows in the light, and that smileContinue reading “Eva’s project – May”

Starbucks on Broadway

The Starbucks on Broadway just had a renovation, and the place looks great.  I’ve been fortunate enough to have some photos hanging there since 2014, and I was delighted that they offered me continued display space after the renovation. I took the time to do a little reorganization of the prints on display.  Bruno ofContinue reading “Starbucks on Broadway”

Bruno’s 2016 project – March and April

Two more months of 2016 have sped by, and we transitioned from “the winter that never was” to spring and maybe even summer.  He spent time on a life raft, had an absentee photo while were away, flew like a wizard and ended the month with a Slumber Party.  And as always, Bruno continues toContinue reading “Bruno’s 2016 project – March and April”

Eva’s project – April

April has had a little back and forth with the weather – spring to winter to spring to summer, and all in such a short time.  Eva’s project continued including shots at napping home, being photobludgeoned in the tennis courts, bird brained and chilling in the yard and having “tweet dreams” and at the cabin.Continue reading “Eva’s project – April”

Eva’s 2016 project – March

March has come and gone – and with it winter seems to have left.  A winter sunrise, ceramic birds, putting a doggy door on the fridge and applying for a job as a bird spotting guide.  Another busy month for Eva. Frozen Sunrise Week 10’s photo “frozen sunrise” was taken during a weekend trip toContinue reading “Eva’s 2016 project – March”

Eva’s 2016 project – February

February saw some winter weather, the under side of the Idylwyld bridge and treat catching in Eva’s project.  That and she is the only tobogganing dog that I have ever met. Eva and 22 Birds Under Idylwyld Week 6 “Eva and 22 birds under idylwyld” combined Eva’s weekly photo with another mini-project that I amContinue reading “Eva’s 2016 project – February”

Eva’s 2016 project – January

2016 is upon us and it is Eva’s turn to do the weekly photos.  She is likely looking forward to the project – as the camera and it’s associated dog treats really get her excited.  For the first month of the project – overhead views, a historic bridge, intense eye contact, vintage star wars actionContinue reading “Eva’s 2016 project – January”

26 bridges – load limit

In 2016 I have decided to do a mini-project on Saskatoon’s bridges.  I’m aiming for 26 unique shots of the 7 main bridges in town.  One final photo per outing. Eva with the Traffic Bridge The first photo was taken one day before there was demolition on the old traffic bridge.  Originally a 5 spanContinue reading “26 bridges – load limit”

Bruno’s 2016 – January & February

The start of the new year means the start of a new dog photo project for me.  This year Bruno will be doing a more infrequent monthly project, with up to 3 photos per month. The first January photo “mr. serious” shows Bruno’s serious side.  Something that was rare in his 2015 project photos.  AlsoContinue reading “Bruno’s 2016 – January & February”

the playmobil photographer

In 2013 I borrowed a Playmobil character from one of my children’s sets for part of a photo project with Kael.  This little test shot in 2013 was a random stroke of good luck as I really like how it all came together, with the details of the photographer and the light on the kitchenContinue reading “the playmobil photographer”

Eva’s project – fourth quarter

The final months in Eva’s monthly photo project have finished, and this quarter of the year.  A seemingly random collection of photos and events:  an occupy living room movement camping, taunting Bruno, a serious portrait, Christmas and snow shoeing on the lake. Occupy This October photo “occupy” showed Eva taking over the fort that myContinue reading “Eva’s project – fourth quarter”

Bruno’s project – December

This is the final month of Bruno’s project.  This month saw a little bad behaviour, some time travelling, a Christmas Golden Wreathtriever, and a retrospective look at the past year. Evidence Week 49 “evidence”: This was never the plan for weekly photo, but when Bruno climbed on the table while our baby sitter was lookingContinue reading “Bruno’s project – December”

Bruno’s project – November

November is done, and that only leaves one month left in Bruno’s 2015 project.  This month saw the weather transition into winter, and the start of the holiday season.  A spider-man toque, some kung fu fighting and Christmas decorations helped make up this month’s photos.  That and a reminder to keep calm and hug aContinue reading “Bruno’s project – November”

dock jumping and a swim – video on youtube

And now I have a youtube channel.  Limited content at this time, but a bit of a fun way to share some videos that happen on the way to making the photos.  This one is of Bruno wearing the GoPro fetch harness at the cabin.  A bit of a fun, jump, swim and shake.  It’sContinue reading “dock jumping and a swim – video on youtube”

Top 10 Selfie of 2014 – in Taiwan

Life is strange and you never know what will happen.  When I did a selfie of myself and Eva on the paddleboard for her 52 week set, I thought it was an interesting experiment, but likely the last selfie I would upload to flickr. Flickr Taiwan Top Selfies As it turns out, the photo wasContinue reading “Top 10 Selfie of 2014 – in Taiwan”

Eva’s project – March 2014

It’s hard to believe that we’re more than 1/4 of the way through 2014.  Eva’s project continues, and she is turning into quite the little model.  Looking forward to some more spring-like weather to get fun outdoor pictures in April.  The ‘week’ number links back to the original post on Flickr. What Could Be BetterContinue reading “Eva’s project – March 2014”
