Tranquil Tuesday

Happy Christmas Eve everyone! I hope that you have had a wonderful holiday season filled with joy and family. I was able to spend some time with some family a little ways away from home last weekend and it was truely wonderful. But it wasn't only family I got to see. I finally was able to see the beautiful sunrise I have been waiting for. I was lucky enough to see it on the ferry ride over to Vancouver island too, so there was nothing but sea, in between myself and the sunrise. One thing that many armature photographers don't know is that it is actually extremely bad for your camera to take direct photos of the sun. It can easily overload and damage your camera's sensor. That is why most sunrise, or sunset photos, the sun is either behind some clouds, or is past the horizon where it isn't actually visible. 

That is why so many beautiful sunrise photos look similar to this shot I was able to take. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and get to spend it with those you love!

Wicked Wednesday

Vehicles make life far easier and efficient. If you have a vehicle, you can get somewhere that could take an hour to walk in maybe fifteen minutes. The farther you go, the more time you save. Unless you drive in a major city. The ways that cars have evolved is pretty incredible. Fuel efficiency has done nothing but gotten better, and I can't wait to see where cars will be ten years from now.

Tranquil Tuesdays

The best thing about being on the west coast is our beautiful, colourful, peaceful sun sets. Vancouver may not have the best looking skyline, but it is still absolutely gorgeous when it is being lit by one of our amazing sun sets.

Tranquil Tuesday

You may notice that many of my photos for Tuesdays will encorporate water in some way, that is because of how calming, and soothing water is in it's many forms. From a rushing waterfall, to a slowly moving lake, water relaxes me, and helps me get through the day. That is why I enjoy sharing these images with you. I hope that you can enjoy these photos as much as I do.
