Day Ninety One

Surprise, surprise!… I found this guy some place right before he was heading to… any guesses? No, not to the North Pole. To storage! I shot a portrait before so here he goes. I just gave him a big bear hug and moved him in the process in the spot where the lights were setup. Here goes day 91.
Christmas +.
surprise, surprise...

Today I drove all the way to Christmas Way, and no, there was no Santa Claus there, no snow, and not many people. I did have to stand in the middle of the street in order to take some of the shots, but since today is Christmas Day, there were hardly any cars on the road. I drove around a little bit afterwards. It’s amazing how deserted everything is, and if you think that less than 24 hours before taking this shot the whole city was crazy and packed with shoppers and cars, it makes you realize how commercialized this celebration has become. Why were there so many people around yesterday and why is there nobody around today? I think we all know the answer. Merry Christmas.
Christmas Day
Merry Christmas.

Day Thirty One

I’ve been complaining a lot lately about how much it rains. And it does rain alot. After living in Idaho for a bunch of years, I must say that Vancouver is quite the change. Besides that challenge of shooting outdoors with strobes it’s also an inconvenience in the rear to my project. Today, I had to give a shot to just rain. Then I realized that Christmas is around the corner and tried to frame this photograph below. Be sure to check out the setup shot below. Nothing fancy, actually I’m just showing you a broader image of how I framed the lamppost to look like a Christmas tree globe. I just tried and tried until one drop of water looked like the string. There.
