No Gear No Problem

9 Dec

In my recent visit to Cairo Egypt, I saw a lot more motorcycles on the road then before. Things that we would find shocking in Canada were very common in Egypt. A father, mother, and two kids riding on one motorcycle? Sure no problem! Smoking and talking on the phone while riding? Sure! When I ride Im sure to wear my helmet, jacket, gloves and riding boots. Have to be protected in case of a crash. Well…

The Modern Christmas Light

2 Jan

It is 2011…. In four more years Marty Mcfly and Doc will be riding the Delorean into the future… 2015. So how similar is the vision they had when they made Back to the Future Part II. Recently I watched the movie with my 4.5 year old son and he loved it. He kept asking for a hover board, which really reminded me of when I was a kid wanting a hover board.  It also was interesting to notice the vision they had for 2015 in the movie and how it compares to our reality today. Throughout this year I will be having some fun looking at the vision they had for the movie.

The first picture above was taken by the Sigma 50mm 1.4g. Love the Bokeh on it. The last two images are using the Nikon 50mm 1.4g which is a great lense as well.

For now I will have a look at the modern Christmas light.  I was walking in Downtown Vancouver tonight and noticed a few people around the city that still had their Christmas lights up. What was interesting is no one had the traditional red, green, blue small light bulb type of lights. Over the years there have been quite a few advancements in the Christmas light world that have flew under cover. Many Christmas lights now use LED so they tend to be brighter and more efficient. Also although many people still put up the traditional colors, many are now putting up what I call the modern Christmas light. One solid color such as blue or white. Personally I am a fan as they tend to look very clean and contemporary.
