ODT - Let there be light
Last weekend I attended a photo workshop called "Portraits in studio" hosted by photographer Eva Rosth! Seven other amateur photographers and me have been so much inspired and learnt so much :)

Hôtel du Parlement de Québec is the location of the Parliament of Quebec which consists of the Lieutenant-Governor and the National Assembly. The building was designed by Eugène-Étienne Taché and was constructed between 1877 and 1886. The front facade is decorated with numerous statues including those of British General James Wolfe and the commander of the French and Canadian troups, Louis-Joseph, Marquis de Montcalm - both of whom were mortally wounded when they fought in the Battle of Quebec (Bataille des Plaines d'Abraham ) in 1759.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A lens is an optical device with perfect or approximate axial symmetry which transmits and refracts light, converging or diverging the beam. A simple lens consists of a single optical element. A compound lens is an array of simple lenses (elements) with a common axis; the use of multiple elements allows more optical aberrations to be corrected than is possible with a single element. Lenses are typically made of glass or transparent plastic. Elements which refract electromagnetic radiation outside the visual spectrum are also called lenses: for instance, a microwave lens can be made from paraffin wax.
The variant spelling lense is sometimes seen. While it is listed as an alternative spelling in some dictionaries, most mainstream dictionaries do not list it as acceptable
Our Daily Topic: Relax
I relax by taking pictures. A little preview from today's work. Not the best, I wish the background wasn't quite as busy. Will attempt again when it's not windy & cold. Thoughts?
These are the stairs in my apartment seen from the upper floor. The green patch is carpet on the lower floor, the steps were painted with a salmon / peach color by the people previously living in this apartment.
On the second-last morning of last year, the sun was shining right on them...

Oh, the stories this 65-year old sled could tell. My wife and her brother, who lived in the Berkshires in western Massachusetts, used to commute more than a mile to school on it over their snow-covered dirt roads, at least on the downhill stretches. And there was the time in 1959 we hoodwinked a graduate school friend into thinking the only way to get from Rte 295 to the farm was by sled; so she, in her spiked heels, fashionable suit and fur coat, piled on top of me, and we rode it over a mile non-stop, mostly downhill and even some uphill, all the way to the farm (my wife and her brother, making the same run a few years earlier, lost control and smashed head-on into a stone wall).
Since it doesn’t snow in our neck o’ the woods in CA, I photographed the sled on our bedroom floor, extracted it in PSE5, and placed it on a snow scene my wife had photographed several years earlier near Telluride, CO. I’m aware that this was a less than perfect attempt, but, if you don’t look too close, maybe you won’t notice…
