1shot #201-Greasy jungle
Found this delightfully dirty light a week ago. I liked the leading lines, the perspective, and the three different temperatures of light. Green in the parking lot out back, white in the tunnel, orange at the sidewalk. On King Street, … Continue reading

This Christ-like figure appeared across the street from Coffee Culture last night as Brohemus and I had a cup of sidewalk dark roast. I’m not seeking out these marquee silhouette shots, but when I see them I must shoot them. … Continue reading

1shot #181-Four on 305
Wandering into DTK for a late lunch on Thursday, I caught these window washers on the side of 305 King. It struck me as a more pragmatic edition of my BANDALOOP shoot at CITS last year. When I squint my … Continue reading
1shot #178-skate toward the light
I rode down to DTK last night for a meeting at Imbibe with Meg Leslie and Martin de Groot, and then shot Maker Club in THEMUSEUM, and then there was this great light beaming down King Street. But only for … Continue reading
