Utah iPhone Photography

Filed under: iPhone,Life,Out & About,The Natural World — Tags: , , — Holly @ 12:07 pm

I traveled down to Utah last week for a photography workshop (more to come from that!), and used my iPhone camera/app to shoot and process the following shots. For me great photography apps on the iPhone make all the difference, it’s such an easy camera to pull out and have fun with!

Shots from the plane on my connecting flight to Chicago:

Shots from the plane much closer to Utah:

A few at the photo shoots in Utah (more to come from my Canon equipment):

Chicago to Toronto, note the Toronto skyline in the last two images:

A sure sign of summer, for me, is when the dandelions turn to seed:

Signs of Spring in Toronto

Filed under: The Natural World — Tags: , , , , — Holly @ 8:55 am

Those of us in Toronto know we can’t complain about the (non)winter we just had. I will admit I wish every winter could be the same, but I wouldn’t mind a snow storm or two…as long as it promptly melts! 😉

In Toronto you know spring has sprung when you see the trees flowering and the dandelions popping up all over the green grass:

(Equipment Used: Images captured with the Canon EOS-1D MarkIV and the Canon 85 f1.2L lens, expect for the last Dandelion shot which was captured with the Canon 100 mm f2.8 macro lens.)

Spring is a beautiful time of year for photography, contact me if you’re interested in a spring photography session.

Friendly Neighbourhood Cats: Toronto Cat Photography

Filed under: Animals,Family Pet Photography — Tags: , , , , , , , — Holly @ 10:26 am

I was out and about last night, enjoying the beautiful spring weather in Toronto, when I met some very friendly neighbourhood cats.

(Equipment Used: All images were shot with the Canon EOS-1D MarkIV and the Canon 100 mm f2.8 macro lens, except where noted.)

Funnily enough there was a question about how to photograph black cats in the comments to my Q & A on moderncat.net yesterday, and then I met this beautiful cat (LOVE the eyes!):

He (she?) was difficult to photograph because he was so friendly! As soon as I’d get down on the ground to take the photograph, he was right there, nuzzling me, purring, even kneading the ground, so cute!

Then I went one street over and met these two beautiful cats (this one was shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

I think I’ll have to go back and visit again! 🙂
