  • Ok ok so its been forever i know!

    But to make up for it I'm adding a ton of pictures. So sit back and enjoy.

    First thing.. we got there late at night

    I got out on the lag camping a few weeks ago and tested out the bell tent with the stove in it for the first time overnight. It worked flawlessley... Markus and I had hoped to photograph a solar storm that was supposed to produce some rather intense Northern Lights. But that plan changed when the clouds moved in and what we saw of the lights was so faint it barely merited the cameras being taken out into the cold.

  • Time Lapse

    Well you might have figured out that these days I'm pretty interested in Time lapse Photography. this is my latest from today. I left the camera running, pointing out the back window while i went to work. After a mere 6 or so hours this short film was made.

    1000 separate images playing on the movie at 15 pictures a second. Hope you like it.

  • Northern Lights Video

    Ok, Ok, I know its been forever since I've put something up here.....After Christmas i caught a bit of a cold and it has really kicked my butt these last few weeks so the camera has stayed in its case and i've been working on the indent on the couch with my rear...

    A few nights ago i finally started to feel alright so i decided to shoot the Northern lights, Lucky for me they were really going.

    so here ya go the results of being outside around midnight in -30c for two or three hours... Being that this is my first time-lapse in a while i'm a bit rusty at it... the vides will get better, I promise

  • Its beginning to feel alot like Christmas

    well we got the decorations out this weekend. We usually like to wait for the Gray Cup weekend, but this year we just couldn't.
    Also my new computer arrived on Friday ( now Nic and I both have shinny new laptops ).

    So thats whats up!!!

    We made a movie to celebrate the event... with help from the new computer and a few programs that i haven't used before it has a bit more sparkle than you are used to... It was a drag and drop template within the program, so this won't be the standard look of our movie. Just a special treat for you.

    Thats all or now folks

    by the way its day here by 1:30ish

  • Abigail and her Bunny

    These are just a few shots of what seems to be Abigail and her newest favorite toy.
    she has named it Pupu ( which isnt as bad a name as you first might think ) Pupu is actually Finnish for bunny. Marcus and Delia were over the other night as Abigail was dragging the bunny all over the place. As you may be very aware Marcus is Finnish and he instinctively called the bunny Pupu... Being My child is part parrot she right away picked up the word and now we have a bunny named Pupu... I guess the names not all bad.... Delia is french and Abigail has lots of stuffed seals.... better a bunny named Pupu than a seal named Phoque (pronounced f*ck) i guess.

    Thats all for now
