Just another pretty face at Bon Acres Farm, Salt Spring Island
Creekside Rainforest Bridge
11:00 a.m. A March morning at Creekside Rainforest, Salt Spring Island
Thundering spring runoff on an overcast day, all the surfaces are covered in a shiny wet mist and a few brief rays of the sun highlight the bridge.
Escape
Salt Spring Photos is escaping on a road trip this week so there will most likely be a short program interruption. Regular programming is scheduled to resume March 16.
Both Sides of a Portrait
Model’s view (image above) and artists’ view (image below).
In the Gulf Islands Secondary Artroom.
A lovely space with huge north facing windows. It would make a great photo studio…
SD64 Improv at ArtSpring
The improvisors were at it for the last time this school year. At ArtSpring. The kids had a great time. And the audience had a great time. FUN show SD64!
Here while improvising a scene, the students were engaged in a steal-the-hat game.
People ask for tech info on the photos from time to time; I sometimes add this information if the situation is unusual.
In the fast moving yet low light of theatre, a camera/lens combination that can focus very quickly at a high ISO (film speed or ASA in the old days) and still produce a clean image is essential to capture movement. As always it comes down to ISO, aperture, and shutter speed right. In this case I needed to stop horizontal and unpredictable motion so 1/500 sec for the shutter speed. A couple of feet of depth of focus needed, so f/2.0 and that required an ISO of 3200.
photo info: Canon 1DX, ISO 3200, f/2.0, 1/500 sec, 35mm (no noise reduction applied to the images)
Not a long time
Forgotten on the roadside. Here for a good time, not a long time.
Egg
Semi-snow day yesterday up here in the highlands. It was kind of hard to focus on the serious work stuff, but once the had-to-do was done, I went looking for a distraction. And this is the result.
I had seen something like it a while back and thought I’d give it a try. Somewhat successful and only one Humpty-Dumpty/omelette moment.
How is this a Salt Spring photo? This free range egg model was obtained from a neighbour.
