Coming home from work Sunday, the sky was magnificent and there were rainbows, so I headed to Sunrise Park in Holly Hill, along the Halifax River, to grab some quick shots. It was gorgeous and I captured some great images, even though it was still sprinkling, and I chose one of my better point and shoots rather than get my Canon wet. The rain quickly moved out, but with the light quickly fading, I chose to keep using the Fujifilm instead of going back to my car for the Canon. I was really pleased with some of the images, even though they weren't quite as sharp as the light faded. It was the kind of day you don't want to forget.
This man was standing in the river, net casting in shallow water. It didn't appear that he was having any luck, and after I took a few shots of him, I noticed he saw me and didn't seem comfortable with it, (probably because of the lack of fish!) so I stopped, and chose to keep the images in silhouette.
I've been fooling about with resin and silicone trying to make copies of various small objects. See my Tumblr post for more detailed info here.
Hubby and I did a casting of our hands. I put the rings on the casting so you can see what they look like and how detailed the casting is.

Patrick Gorman of the film Gettysberg
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Gorman on a casting for a shoot I have coming up in January. Patrick's acting hails back to the seventies. He's acted in films like Gods and Generals, Gettysberg, Above The Law, and The Land That Time Forgot. (Dont ask me what these films are about, however I may have seen Gettsberg when I had a sub in 8th grade history) He has also starred some contemporary TV shows like Parks and Rec, The Drew Carey Show, and my personal favorite Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
One Funny thing about Patrick is that he is an ultimate character, I could not believe the fashion he walked in with, bright yellow 1980's sun glasses, big brown boots, levi's 501's and a sweet beige safari jacket. I was ready to shoot him then, but for the casting we needed all the guys in formal wear. We then started shooting some simple shots. Before I knew it we were shooting some of the most defined and intense portraits I have shot in a while.
As a portrait photographer always looking for interesting people, this is the type of guy you want to keep in the rolodex. I could not believe his look, he was amazing on camera, I could not take a bad picture of him. I was amazed at his subtle expressions, weathered look, and determination in his eyes. Once more, he has a bunch of horses I can't wait to point a camera at.
ps.. this was shot on my 20D circa 2005. go's to show its not always about the camera you have.

1st April 2018 Using up old plaster........ I left the nose on the plaster bandage mould too thin and it dented once the heavy plaster had been poured in!
Really like the shadow of the tree and then the columns but then even the corner of the wall...everything kinda gave it depth.

It's time for another journey
let's head out
and let's not wait
let's go on through
to the other side;
Awaji Yumebutai Park, Botanical Gardens, Cultural Complex, Hotel and Conference Center, Awaji Island, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan.
Hyakudan-en / Hundred Steps Gardens
Architect: Tadao Ando, 2000
The Awaji Yumebutai complex deserves a few accompanying words, as I found it both highly fascinating (and photogenic), yet at the same time profoundly strange. The development originated in the massive excavation pit left behind from the construction of several artificial islands in the Osaka Bay, including Kansai Airport. The resulting scar in the Awaji hills (which incidentally became the epicentre of the deadly Hanshin Kobe earthquake in 1995) was to be replaced foremost by “new nature”, with the assignment given to architect Tadao Ando, who designed every part of the complex (including some major amendments after the earthquake).
The result is unlike any modern architecture I have seen – a fully abstracted, totally artificial representation of nature, but almost entirely devoid of the real thing. Instead, the vision realized in Yumebutai is best described as a mash-up of the Acropolis, the Alhambra, the Forum Romanum and similar monumental and hyper-geometric sites, combined with elements of cascaded renaissance water gardens such as the Villa d’Este. Nature itself is mostly present in name, such as “Sky Garden” or “Water Garden”, both made entirely of Ando’s signature tie-holed concrete, or “Shell Beach” for the tens of thousands of meticulously arranged and inlaid seashells that line the concrete bottoms of pools and cascades.
But most strange of all is the feeling that all this only exists for architecture’s sake – while the site contains several large functions such as a conference centre, grand hotel, wedding chapel and cultural and gastronomy spaces, all of these don’t even make up 50% of the constructed area, and it seems that first and foremost the expansive concrete structures that fill the hillsides are there because of Ando’s vision, rather than for any functional needs – a quite unique and at the same time unsettling perspective.
