Mason Jar With Flowers

From A Glade In The Shade

Simple and straightforward.

A jar of flowers hangs from a post in deep shade. 

I set the shutter speed fast enough to ensure sharpness while hand-holding the camera.

I tried a number of compositions, some in portrait orientation and some landscape. A few clicks later, this one popped out as my favorite. Magic!

Place D'Armes - Montréal

Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal on Easter Sunday

It was Easter Sunday, but the -6C weather felt like the middle of January. By the time I finished shooting in this square (La Place D'Armes), my hand were numb.

But what a beautiful basilica! And what a beautiful view from the square! This shot was worth a bit of discomfort.

Amsterdam After Dark

Blue Hour On A Tranquil Canal

Amsterdam is a delightful city, fun, appealing to the eyes, easy navigate on foot (and probably by boat - I just haven't had the pleasure).

Amsterdam After Dark

I captured this evening shot during one of my walks. I didn't have a destination or a schedule in mind. I just wandered through the center of the city to see what there was to see.

Through the Doorway - Mexico City

Things To Photograph While Your Travel Companion Is Shopping


Our poor, long-suffering travel companions! They don't always understand our compulsion to stop and take photographs. 

In all fairness, waiting for someone to stop - shoot - stop again - shoot something else - can become tedious after a few hundred clicks of the shutter.

But on those occasions when our companions are busy looking for bargains, photographers recognize that we have been granted the ultimate green light - guilt-free shooting time!

Through the Doorway - Mexico City

My suggestion: make the best of it before they finish at the checkout counter.
