Christmas Lights on Parliament Hill

December 22nd, 2010 § Email This Post § 0

I was wandering around downtown Ottawa waiting to photograph the lunar eclipse. It was a very cloudy night and it gradually became more and more obvious that the eclipse was not in the cards for me. On the way out of town I stopped by Parliament Hill to create a few images of the Hill with all the Christmas Lights in full display. It's a beautiful scene and obviously very photogenic!!..©2010, Sean Phillips.http://www.RiverwoodPhotography.com (Sean Phillips)

I went to downtown Ottawa on December 21st to try to photograph the once-in-a-lifetime lunar eclipse (coinciding with the winter solstice), but unfortunately the city was socked in with clouds and I barely saw the eclipse. So I took the opportunity to wander around and photograph some of the landmarks in the city instead...©2010, Sean Phillips.http://www.RiverwoodPhotography.com (Sean Phillips)

Dramatic skies over the Calgary cityscape in the morning, including the new Bow building towering over the surrounding highrises.

I’m always on the lookout for new locations to photograph the Calgary Skyline from and so I went for a drive the other day. I tried a whole bunch of spots but this was definitely my favorite. I found a few more places that I’m going to try soon…

Fruits and Vegetables at the Farmers Market

October 10th, 2010 § Email This Post § 0

We went for a walk around the Kelowna Farmers & Crafters Market. The pure abundance of beautiful fresh fruits and vegetables was amazing to see. Everythind was bright and colorful and mouth wateringly fresh. Of course we had to try and buy some of the fresh produce… The apples were direct from the orchard (picked the night before) and they were crisp and delicious!

Fall Colors at Carburn Park

September 29th, 2010 § Email This Post § 2

The trees in the Calgary area are at the peak of the fall colors right now and they are very beautiful. I’ve been spending lots of time at the park lately doing family and children’s portraits so I’ve had plenty of time to watch in awe as the colors have changed. The ponds at the park have been completely still every morning and I’ve wanted to capture it for awhile. I finally had a chance to create some beautiful landscape images this morning!

Gopher Image in Use - Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival Poster

I have many gopher images available for sale on my site and this one was picked up for use on a poster for the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. The original image of the gopher has been fairly heavily modified, but it was a pretty cute image to begin with!

Here are a few more of my gopher images for your reference!
