PHOTOWALK 2
The hardest part of getting better at something is putting in the hours. There was a couple months between this walk and the last, and I thought a new location would render better results but it was pretty much the same. I didnβt have enough hours under my belt so my expectations were too high. I enjoy these photos and share them to show not every creative session will give you amazing shots, but it will always make you better than never trying at all

PHOTOWALK 1
I was determined to find local areas to shoot and get better acquainted with my camera. My local downtown seemed intimidating, thereβs not a lot of people walking through but I needed to practice, chase light and see what catches my eye. In terms of people I couldnβt capture what I wanted, but I couldnβt leave empty handed so this is more of a cityscape study rather than a street photography one. Either way, much needed experience walking in the streets with my camera

CASA LOMA STEPS
Frames are fleeting. If you donβt get out there with your camera you will miss moments but it's not possible to be everywhere. This motivates me to shoot more and admire other photographers more. This shot on Casa Loma steps could be replicated tons of times, but I find the yellow van makes this image unique matching the sunlight on the building complimenting the cold blue tones present on this very cold Toronto day

QUARANTINE WALK
Covid lockdowns was dark and a challenge to navigate. I did my best to be patient during these very trying times. One way was to shoot but locations were limited. It was kind of discouraging, not feeling much inspiration, but in hindsight Iβm grateful for any opportunity to press the shutter

WELLAND CRUISE NIGHT
Took a walk around a local parking lot car show with my Nikon d5100. This is one of my favourite summer activities because people love showing off their cars, I love admiring them, and you get to see them all in one place

BASEMENT JAM
A music jam with friends on 35mm film. They rock out, I make art and itβs a symbiotic relationship of creative flow that I always appreciate. Their passion for music is infectious and always inspires me want to make dope art
