Henry’s Exposure Show 2014

Henry's Exposure Show 2014
Hey guys, I’ve had a busy week with new adventures so didn’t have time to post much! Last weekend, I attended the last day of the Henry’s Exposure Show. It was camera gear galore and I was able to test many lenses as well as shoot some animal and human models.

Dingle Park Lake

Dingle Park Lake View
Had a bit more time by the lake (although it was much chillier) this weekend. Here’s a view from Dingle Park, and a cat that happened to be there.

Random Flowers

Here are some random photos of flowers mom bought. For some reason they remind me of ketchup chips.

Canadian International Autoshow

Canadian International Autoshow 2014
Thanks to Klout and Chevy Canada, I attended the Canadian International Autoshow.

Canadian International Autoshow 2014I made Nash go with me, and our reaction was a unanimous “OMG SO MANY CARS”. We’re not really “car” people and it’ll be a while until we both decide to purchase cars.

Canadian International Autoshow 2014There were cars from every make and model including this convertible which Nash called the girliest car ever because of its tiny size.

Canadian International Autoshow 2014This concept car of the future is motion controlled, which seems cool but in reality seems like it would be less efficient than a steering wheel.

Canadian International Autoshow 2014I saw a 3D printer (a Makerbot) for the first time printing some mini car models!

Since the Klout perk was sponsored by Chevy, I received some sweet swag which including a power bank for my iPhone and a Klout pin which allowed me to skip the line for the Camero challenge. You can watch me completely fail at the challenge in my vlog. I love the power bank, it’s the most useful thing a brand could give out because everybody has a phone that occasionally needs emergency charging!

I’m glad we went to experience the autoshow. I think it’s a great place if you’re looking to buy a car and want to try all the brands out. We saw many people getting in cars and testing the feel out. Entire families went in the mini-vans. When I happened to pass by Union Station on Family Day, I saw dad’s headed to the show with their little sons. That’s such an adorable idea for young car lovers!

Anyways here’s some more random photos of cars:

The Beautiful Destruction of Bubbles


Inspired by Andrea Kelly, I tried the taking photos of bubbles outside as they freeze thing today. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any bubble solution so I created my own with dish soap and water. The solution wasn’t really the best for long-lasting bubbles so if anyone has a better one (that preferably does not require glycerin) I’d love to know! These bubbles were usually gone within seconds and I was blowing them as well as shooting the photos so it was a bit more difficult. I recommend making someone else freeze their butts of with you if you want to try this.




Bottle Full of Stars


I had this jar of origami stars sitting in my room for the longest time. When I poured a few out for a photograph, a yellow star landed in this perfect position.

Also, one of the snowflake photos in my previous post somehow ended up on Flickr’s explore page. This is my first time on that page. Thank you all for your support!

A Single Snowflake

Snowflake
I voluntarily went outside in -14 degrees (celcius) weather to capture macro snowflakes. This was the only photo that turned out. It’s actually not shot in B/W. The glove I used to catch falling slow happened to to be black. No flash, just the 100mm 2.8 L macro lens on my 60D.

Turtle Macros

I recently picked up the 100mm 2.8 L macro lens for a decent price. Here are some random test shots on my turtle!
