Clouds And The Wall
The clouds roll up to the mountain and get stopped or go over. The weather in the Rockies is ever changing.

Prairie Barn
Wandering around the countryside you can see many barns, but it’s not often that they are by themselves. The livestock that used to go into the barn are long gone. Even the fences and corrals normally associated with animal husbandry have been removed. You wonder what happened and what changed.

Circles And Lines
I think that this is actually a bike rack, but I loved the way the the design was repeated and knew there was a picture in there somewhere. The multiple circles contrast the angular lines of the supports which are backed up by the lines of the railing.

The Woods
A simple shot of aspen trees in the Alberta foothills, after the leaves had fallen. I converted it to black and white to emphasise the starkness of the scene. The light coloured trunks with the dark markings lend themselves to a monochrome medium.

Best of Black & White 2015
I’ve done more black and white this year than I’ve done in a long time. These were al shot this year and I chose them as my best of the year. In no particular order.
‘58 Apache – From the Didsbury Show and Shine, I liked the luminous quality of light that I was able to bring out in this shot.
Edge Of The Field – There’s a certain magic that harvest time on the prairies brings out.
Jaws – A close up of the cutter on a swather brings out detail not normally seen.
Bay Arcade At Night – Handheld, going back to my car after dinner with Dave Brosha.
After The Fire – A small section of the area between Ft Providence and Edzo, that burned in 2014.
Simmons Building – Wandering around downtown Calgary, I had to get a shot of a new Icon of redevelopment in the East Village.
I hope that you enjoy these as much as I did taking and processing them.
