Photo of the Day #10 – May 17, 2012

I was really busy at work today and didn’t get a chance to get out. Here is another in the series of weird stuff around my room in Montreal. As lame as the premise is, it does force me to try and be as creative as possible with the limited room and materials I have around. This is a 2/3rds enjoyed bottle of wine being held up by a silver hand statue.

Photo of the Day #9 – May 16, 2012

This photo has a little drama to it. This is shot from the front steps of Notman House looking down towards the lake. The church tower is centred in the distance and framed by the Opus Hotel on the left and kewl spiral staircase on the right. Overhead is an approaching thunder storm turning everything black. Quite ominous.

Photo of the Day #8 – May 15, 2012

Today was a rainy, busy day and I had no time to really go out and find a good location. So today’s Photo of the Day is quick and dirty.

In my room in Montreal there is a small bamboo plant. Here is a shot of the top of the bamboo infront of a mirror. You see the main sprout in focus and reflection slightly blurred. The rest of the background is gone to a nice soft blur. Also with the long focal length and light flash we get a nice vignetting around the frame.

Photo of the Day #7 – May 14, 2012

Looks like we’ve now made it one week. It’s starting to get a little harder now, all the ideas I had in my head have been done or can’t be done on the day I need a photo. This is where things get fun.

Today was a beautiful, warm and sunny day in Montreal. Went on a walk with Michael and snapped a few pics. Here’s my fav. New water feature at Places Des Art.

Any suggestions for photos are very welcome.

Photo of the Day #6 – May 13, 2012

In the Place Des Art building they often do these public performances. Today just happened to be Salsa lessons. Here are these cute little kids trying to follow along with the instructor.

Yup, there is a bonus today too. This is a self portrait in the quad of the UQAM Sciences Campas on a beautiful sunny day. The light is a little harsh and a reflector on the left would have made it better, but I was alone and this was taken on a timer with the camera sitting on a trash can.

Photo of the Day #5 – May 12, 2012

Today got off to a slow start. I slept in as it was Saturday and I was getting really burnt out. I watched some YouTube videos and had a coffee. Had a shower and headed to the office to get some work done. Hada pretty productive time. Before I knew it the sun was almost gone and I hadn’t taken any photos. I snapped a few of another creepy bathtub in the basement of Notman house, but seeing as I posted a photo similar to that the other day chose not to.

Today’s photo is the tunnel at the St Laurent subway station in Montreal. Yup, another subway ;) . Tomorrow, I hope to have a photo with a person in it.

Photo of the Day #4 – May 11, 2012

At FounderFuel we work in this crazy kewl historic building called Notman House. It’s at Sherbrooke Ouest and St Laurent in Montreal. Attached to the rear of the house is a short passage way to this old abandoned hospital, it’s 4 floors of insane and crazy stuff. It’s truly a great set for a horror movie.

This photo was taken on the fourth floor of that abandoned hospital in a small bathroom in one of the wings. I particularly liked this shot because of the clean sun light coming in through the window and the dirt and grime of the bathroom and old cast iron claw foot tub. Cleaned up, I could totally see this being a great place to take a bath and read a book in the fantastic sun.
