Honoured Alongside Art Wolfe
PhotoShelter Selects PhotoShelter is a great business partner. I have been using their image and album hosting tools since 2010. I say they’re my business partner because to me, they are so much more than just an online album service. In addition to their core service, they hold webinars, send out regular eBooks and best […]
December Desktop Wallpaper / Lake O’Hara Sunrise
Instead of the cliché winter scene, for December I thought I would give you a wallpaper that can remind you of what’s in store a few months from now. A cliché spring scene! This year my hometown of Calgary got hit with the worst flooding in its history. Now during the winter months we have […]
November Desktop Wallpaper / Rebirth
October was quite the hectic month. I did a talk for the Foothills Camera Club about inspiration. I shot images at the Calgary Zoo to aid in the post-flood efforts (thanks to Vistek for providing the equipment). I shot out at Emerald Lake in Yoho National park with my Dad. And November is looking like it’s […]
October Desktop Wallpaper / Here Comes the Sun
On our trip to Missoula last month Aiofe and I stopped in Glacier National Park twice. On our first stay there we arrived at the St. Mary’s entrance pretty late and so we weren’t able to get a campsite. Sleeping in the car isn’t so bad unless you can’t recline your seats due to your car […]
September Desktop Wallpaper / Stand by Me
My good friend Dave and I headed out to the Crowsnest Pass area about a month ago and I just finally got a chance to review the images. Dave is a great night photographer and often has great ideas for me. For instance, I left my cable release at home. A good cable release / […]
August Desktop Wallpaper / Indentity
Summer is here and most things are in full bloom. I captured this image while shooting for Astral Harvest Music & Arts Festival. Astral Harvest asked us to capture the spirit and essence of their festival and I happily accepted. My good friend Chris was there to help me with lighting. Thanks Chris! To see […]
July Desktop Wallpaper / Island Life – Happy Canada Day
Happy Canada Day everyone! To celebrate Canada’s beauty in the Rocky Mountains, this month’s free desktop wallpaper is an image I created out in Yoho National Park. I arrived at the location I scouted days before wanting to capture the iconic first bit of golden light on the mountain tops. I waited and waited finally […]
May Desktop Wallpaper / Dance to the Morning Light
Before a photo shoot I like to scope out my location. This particular shoot I was scouting for was to have a mountainous background for a car in the foreground. This particular day quite cloudy. It was so cloudy in fact that I couldn’t even see any of the mountains. What do you do when […]
March Desktop Wallpaper / Moonlight Over Minnewanka
Back in December last year (2012) I went on a road trip to Banff National Park with Aiofe and her family. We spent the day hiking out in Johnston Canyon and window shopping at the Banff town site. Aiofe, her mom and sister went to the Banff Hot Springs while I took the opportunity to do […]
January Desktop Wallpaper / New Dawn
Happy New Year! To set the year of right I decided to wake up early on New Year’s day. Originally I was going to play some hockey with friends but that didn’t work out so I was up before dawn with nothing to do except catch the sunrise. With no destination in mind I just […]
December Desktop Wallpaper / Canyon Mist
Again, another late wallpaper offering for the month of December. On the bright side you can enjoy it throughout the holidays. This image was taken in Kananaskis Country. It’s an intimate capture of Blue Rock Canyon in the Sheep River Provincial Park. Field Notes: Nikon D800 / Nikon 16-35mm f4.0 @ 27mm f16 / 2 […]
November Desktop Wallpaper / McDougall Memorial United Church
I’ve been swamped the past few weeks and so I’ve been delinquent in delivering this month’s free desktop wallpaper. I hope you can all forgive me. The November 2012 free desktop wallpaper is a long exposure of the McDougall Memorial United Church. I’ve been here a few times before but I’ve never had any luck until now. […]
October Wallpaper / Moonlight Spot
Last week I was out with my buddies Dave and Manuel from Vistek who are also avid night photographers. We were out trying to make the most out of the Harvest Moon and the unbelievably warm weather. We went to Yoho National Park and captured some images from Emerald Lake and Takakkaw Falls near Field, […]
September Wallpaper / Hang on to Summer
OK, so September’s free wallpaper download isn’t going to make headlines like Apple announcing the iPhone 5 today. But because August came and left in a blink of an eye let’s hang on to summer with this month’s wallpaper. In a few weeks, at the end of this month we’ll be wondering where all the […]
August Wallpaper / Beat the Heat
The August long weekend just passed and we are currently in a heat wave here where I’m from. One way to beat the heat is to take a dip in some nice cool water. This is the theme for this month’s free desktop wallpaper. This was the scene I saw on our way out to […]
July Wallpaper / Happy Canada Day
As Canada Day is fast approaching I’d like to make July’s free wallpaper download related to what most Canadians like to do during Canada Day. Camping is a popular and favourite pastime for Canadians and so I’m offering “Forever” as a downloadable wallpaper. It will fit most displays up to 27″. “Forever” was taken out […]
