My Slingshot...

This summer I managed to get out a few times to visit family and friends and even spent a week in Blue Mountain, Ontario. It was very hard to leave there, as the beaches of Georgian Bay are stunning! I also got the opportunity to shoot outdoors a lot and using natural light has always been my favorite. One of the problems I used to have with shooting on location outdoors was lugging around my gear. I have my rolling suitcase, which is great to carry all my gear in "civilization", but when I’m trekking through the woods and fields I need something a little more portable and light. So now I have a Lowepro Slingshot 350! It has room for all my essentials yet not too big that it's heavy or awkward. The shoulder strap allows me to swing it around to the front for easy access. I can reach all my gear without having to even take it off! Love that!! And when the pack is in front of me, it acts as a table if I need a steady hand. And when I’m done, I just swing it back around. 

Just For Fun!

I went to Montreal for a little vacation to visit my family, and while we were there, my niece Cindy and I decided to get a little creative and have some fun with the camera! She is very tall and beautiful, and a riot too! Anyways, we just fooled around one afternoon and this is what came up with!

Rockwood

My brother and his kids came down from Quebec this month, so we (my sister and her kids too) decided to take a little day-trip out to Rockwood Conservation Area which is in the town of Rockwood (go figure) near Guelph, Ontario. It is a beautiful place, surrounded by cliffs, trees, caves, trails and so much more. Every time I go there I feel like I'm in a different land, it's amazing. Well, here are a few shots from our little adventure.
