Black and White Self Portrait with Flash

Tried to use some of my newly acquired Flash Photography skills to try a bit of self portrait photography. I needed a new headshot picture for work, so this is what I ended up with.

I ended up using the first picture.

A Little Street Photography

I was out on my walk and noticed that we have a couple of crosswalks in our neighbourhood. I think crosswalks make for great leading line photos.

Got my Tim Hortons Smile Cookie! 100% of all Smile Cookie proceeds in the Ottawa area go to the Snow Suit fund. Last year they raised $330k so 6,000 Snowsuits could be given out to local children.

Hard to believe we have boarded up houses in Orleans in the middle of a housing crisis. Owners should be renovating or building something new. Especially with this location so close to the new LRT.

I got to meet and play with this very friendly cat called Piper last night. She was a real chatter box, with lots of head buts and making biscuits on my chest. I think I am in ❤️.

I have discovered over the last few weeks that I can't pass a puddle to see if there is a good reflection shot. Took this one in our local park.
