In June of 2015 I will asked to shoot a wedding in the beautiful city of Paris in my signature documentary style.

 

I took along my Canon 5DmkIII (with 24-105L and 50mm f/1.4) with my Fujifilm X100T as a secondary camera.

 

These images are a selection of some of my favourite captures from what was a truly wonderful day.

Big and little versions.

Taken with the Hasselblad 501CM and Kodak Ektar 100, June 2013

Non c'è sfida più difficile, in fotografia, che tentare di fotografare sé stessi.

Self reflection. Gardenvale, Melbourne. January 2020

in ghent, march 2011.

Self reflection again. Like the view?

I have been reviewing some Vietnam scans and came on this one which I never bothered with before because it was kind of ordinary. Until I realized it might be an accidental selfie. (A word that did not exist in 1967) If you look closely at the very right of the frame you can see me, reflected in the window.

 

The body of the plane is reflected in its own engine.

The door that I saw my reflection in was double paned, so I couldn't get any sharper image!

Took in front of new Irving K. Barber Library at UBC.

a polaroid made earlier this autumn, but very much my mood right now... a bit jumbled

This is my favorite time of year. No matter where you turn--even inward--there's a ripple of hope and beauty. This is the loveliest period in the natural cycle.

Self portrait taken inside Blue Moon Camera and Machine with my Pentax K1000. I've been holding on to this image for some months, waiting for the time that it might relieve a self portrait drought.

 

And also, waiting for a time when it might have some relevance to the events in my life. I've been taking photos since I was about twelve years old - the first camera I ever used consistently was my mom's little 110, and the first book I ever read on photography was put out by the 4-H organization. I had books of photos before I was a teenager, ribbons for them at the county fair, even an award at state fair. But never did I put much stock into myself as a 'real' photographer. It was a hobby for me. Veterinary medicine, on the other hand, was my profession. Photography didn't even take second - I reserved writing as my backup career, meaning my work with a camera took a distant third. And yet, I persisted, because I so thoroughly enjoyed it.

 

I am a person who downplays my accomplishments. I have always been such a person. But I will take a moment here to say something - yes, I am proud of what I have done and what I continue to do with a camera. I may never be completely satisfied with my work (who is? satisfaction is an endless pursuit that has its purpose... it keeps us driven), but I am confident enough in it to say that, yes, I am pleased with my own progress in the field of photography. My vision is only one of millions, but it is mine alone, and I am proud of it.

 

There is more to this excerpt. But you'll have to wait until the 25th to discover what that 'more' is. ;)

reflection in a glass object

"Life is only a reflection of what we allow ourselves to see and be"

When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want, but not what you need

When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace

When you love someone, but it goes to waste

Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

And high up above, or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try, you'll never know

Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your face, and I

Tears stream down your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face, and I

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

Next door, Emily and Elizabeth had retired upstairs. Luckily for them, Bobby had made sure the women had a decent bed and large enough covers.

 

What Bobby couldn’t plan for, however, was the changing weather and that Elizabeth didn’t seem sleepy.

 

“Baby sister,” Emily spoke, her face barely visible above the covers as she tried to stay warm. “Could you please turn out the light?”

 

“I just realized that I’m reading, like, I’m really reading. I haven’t reread the same page four times to make sense of what it says. I didn’t know I could still do that!” Elizabeth marveled.

 

“I don’t know how you get anything outside of childcare accomplished at your house,” Emily observed.

 

“I don’t know how I do either,” Elizabeth reflected, astonished she had just said that. Did she really feel that way?

 

To be continued later this week... ;)
