This weekend, I managed to get out Saturday morning before the rain started. I took the walk around Long Pond with the intent of capturing the fall colours. I came away with some exercise (it’s not a long walk, but I typically only go from the door to the car and vice versa) and four usable shots (album here).

This photo also marks the end of my ‘Photo of the Week’ commitment. I’ve successfully pulled it off for a year now (admittedly, with a couple of cop-out posts), and I am pretty sure it has made me a better photographer; it’s somewhat interesting to go back and see my progression over the year. I still intend to post photos here pretty often, but it likely won’t be with the same regularity, and it won’t be with the ‘Photo of the Week’ category–that’s retired as of this post. I also plan to actually start posting words here again (not sure when the first will be yet), so stay tuned for there are more things coming.

I didn’t get out to take a photo this week, due partially to the less than inviting weather and also to my laziness. So this is a photo from a while ago, processed tonight.

This week’s photo is of the Basilica in St. John’s. This one was taken just as it was getting dark, hence the deep blue sky.

This week’s photo is of Fort Amherst, as seen from Signal Hill, at night. Brian and I went up there this evening to take a few pictures, and it’s my best shot of the night.
Now, I’ve gotten a few comments offline about my photos looking too dark (this one is a little dark though), or (in the case of my shots from the road trip, which I’ve printed) that they don’t look the same on screen as they did on paper. The photos are fine (well, most of them), the problem is with your monitor. I’m not going to get into a whole thing about colour calibration here, but I’ve linked an image with the numbers 1 through 10 in boxes of different shades of gray–you should be able to see the line between each of these boxes, if not you should adjust your brightness and contrast until you can. That’s a good first step.

This week’s photo is a HDR shot of a light bulb. Not a whole lot to say about it, except that it looked much better in black and white than it did in colour.

This week’s photo is of the Meeple from Carcassonne. This is me playing with my close-up filters again, with a very small depth of field.

This week’s photo is one of a few that came out of a photo shoot with Angus and his new motorcycle. He has posted the rest of them to Flickr, so you can see them there.

This is a photo that I just recently processed fro my Northern Bay trip a few weeks ago. Not much to say about it, except that I didn’t get out shooting this week.
