Old, Twisted, but Still Strong

Old, Twisted, but Still Strong by Sean Daniel

This old tree on the Trinity College grounds was standing center of a giant patch of grass. Proud, like it owned hte place. Bold like it knew it belonged. and Strong, remembering what it had survived to get here. I'd love to see this tree in the fall before it dropped its leaves, and I'd love to see it in full bloom. It's strong contrast against the blue sky and deep green grass really caught my eye. View the larger version on Flickr!

Streets Aglow



Streets Aglow. Again in The Bund in Shanghai, China, I got a great dusk shot as the street lights started coming on. Kind of makes me feel like there is a little fire at ground level. Love shooting at this time of night in a downtown scene View the larger version on Flickr

Shanghai at Night



Shanghai at Night. While wondering in "The Bund" in Shanghai China, I decided to take a long exposure. I didn't have tripod with me so I used a ledge to stable the camera and took a 32 second exposure. I was super happy how it turned out. I can't believe the people stayed mostly still for 32 seconds!

Victoria in Snow

Victoria in Snow

As the snow starts to melt from Victoria I think back to how often we actually get snow.  Hardly at all.  I can only remember 2006 (when this photo was taken) and 2008 when I first officially moved here.  This is a shot I took in 2006 walking around the Inner harbour in the snow.

Foggy San Fran

Foggy San Fran

Dragging this one up from the graveyard (shot in a San Fran visit in 2002).  This was a "I'm out for breakfast, that looks like a cool shot" snap, but to this day, I still really like how it turned out.  The Mystery of the building disappearing into the fog is what makes it for me.

Miniature War

Miniature War

This is a fun one, also resurected from my collection.  Miniature World in Victoria, BC has a bunch of wonderful scenes from war, all shrunk down about as small as they go.  These men stand about 1cm tall, of course with the camera where I put it, you might never know.  ;o) View the larger version on Flickr.

Cook Street Austin-Healey

Cook Street Austin-Healey

Again, given it has been miserable out, I figured it'd be fun to look back on some topless convertible fun.  found this old Austin-Healeyin prime condition in Cookstreet village... for some reason, cars always come out looking awesome in HDR, especially classics. View the larger version on Flickr.
