A man standing on a rock outcropping into lake Ontario, on the shores of Toronto. The toronto neighhourhood of “The Beach” is one of the more lovely and rathe well-off neighbourhoods in Canada’s biggest city. Sadly taking a dip in the water isn’t always highly recommended, given the state of the water.

The picturesque village of Etretat is shouldered on each side by beautiful majestic cliffs – that you’ve no doubt seen on countless postcards. Facing the sea on the right side you will see this Chapel at the top of the cliffside with a winding path leading up to it.

Enkilastic

While it is the object much detestation and whining, i personally love the Paris Metro system. It’s vast, exhaustively covers our capital, and in a much more logical and sensible way than say the London underground, it is affordable, incredibly so for what it offers. Yes it stinks, yes it’s old (but constantly being modernized), and yes it is CROWDED … but it has a special place in my…

Regionalistic

Brittany, one of the more unique and beautiful regions in France, has a northern coast situated where the North Atlantic meets "La Manche" (the English channel to the Brits). It is a long coast, beautiful, rocky at places and long gorgeous flat sand beach

Parenthetically

One of the good things that we experienced during the Covid lockdowns (very few) was the ‘liberation’ of Paris from mass-tourism and her delivery to us natives. Here is a the well-known Rue de Rivoli on the right bank, free of cars and humans in general. You have the Louvre to the left.

Bovarious Signs

another in a series of photos taken during our first break away from lockdown in the summer of 2020 in the rural area outside of Paris in the little village of Choue. Memories of that summer are quite vivid, with a bunch of friends we rented house in the country with swimming pool out in the fields and felt so free after being locked down for the 3 months previous.

Never missed a day

Here is your Daily Dose of Photography - DDoP :

I may be a little bit biased saying this but I believe the Toronto has one of the most beautiful and iconic skylights. Here is an example as seen from Center Island just off downtown in Lake Ontario. I think there are so many various wonderful ways of capturing the Toronto skyline at day, at night, during a storm, with a clear sky, in the winter, in the summer and so on. If you’ve never been, you…

Get Even

It was the first summer after the covid lockdowns over the bunch of Friends we rented the property about 100 kilometers from Paris. I think the euphoria of being “free” after 3 months of lockdown only contributed to the pleasure of being out in the open countryside.

Bandied About

This photo was taken at the Experimentarium museum in the city of Copenhagen in Denmark. It’s a trip I’ve done twice with my classes in the past comma part of the visit to the wind farms over there and as an introduction to renewable energies in different countries. I’m hoping to do this again and maybe this time we might actually get to climb into one of the offshore wind turbines. SPECS : f5.6…

Figuring Things Out

In the north east of Paris, there is an area called “La Vilette”, wherein you will find a big science museum “Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie”, the Paris Philharmonique, and various concert venues and cafés and as well as a big park area great for picnicking. Obivously there has been a lot of manipulation and retouching of this image in Lr, but i like the final product. SPECS : f4.5 || 1/13…

New beginning

A couple of years back, Fall of 2020 to be exact, first time we were able to go for a short holiday in that first COVID year, we went to the porty city of Fécamp in Normandy, France. It rained and was cloudy and on our last day a new lockdown was announced which had our restaurant owner in tears after what had already been a tough year. Did mange to get a few really nice shot of the gorgeous…
