A few weeks ago, Tracey, her brother Marshall and I took the kids to see the fabled Saskatoon Street house here in London. It was all of our first times visiting the house, and it didn’t disappoint.
Here is a quick video that I shot.
Music is “I love NYE” by Badly Drawn Boy
I also did a quick long exposure shot that didn’t quite turn out.
Choosing my project for the National Photo Book Month. I originally chose to do the theme of long exposure photography. Being that I could only take photos in certain lighting conditions, the idea became very difficult to finish, and I ran out of time.
This morning, November 30th, I was out of time, and could not finish the project. Disappointed in myself for procrastinating, I gave up. I was kicking myself for not choosing a theme that was easier to execute. Then it came to me. I am a big procrastinator, and time always seems to be against me, so I thought, what if I did the entire project in one day, documenting the time in between shots. Using time as my theme now, I picked up an alarm clock and went out shooting. The time that is displayed on the clock, it the actual time of the photo.

I haven’t been to this event since I was Brodie’s age. I have to admit, driving up to the park I though that this was going to be pretty weak, but in the end, we had a great time. I remember being Brodie’s age and being pulled on a sled through the park thinking that the lights were the greatest thing ever.
Tracey and the kids had a great time. As much as I hate the stuff,snow would have been a nice touch.
