Brandon Sek!
Feels like its been a while… What’s up, Internet? Last month, the monthly party I had covered for two years ended. This month, I started a new residency with a lot of the same crew. Everything kicked off on Friday with Toronto’s Brandon Sek in as the guest DJ.
I felt a bit lost for ideas but I feel pretty pumped about what I managed to pull off with an otherwise simple concept. As I continue to do these, I will aim to keep a less is more philosophy. This time, it also was an excuse to play a bit with the adjustment brushes in Lightroom. Too much? At least I’m not isolating the colour of a rose in a black and white image…
That said, I thought boxing gloves would be awesome to photograph but hand them over to people who have been drinking and it turns out they’re probably less inclined to pose for a photo and more inclined to actually beat the hell from each other! Hilarity ensues.
A bunch of bizarre plans seem to be lining up for 2010. I got a fortune cookie that told me I should keep things to myself for now but fingers crossed, eh? I feel good. Until then, check out the blog I maintain for the News Photographers Association of Canada. This week, Peter Martin is writing from the Venice Carnivale and Brent Lewin is writing about Elephants in Thailand.
Finally, lets talk about the weather for a second. Winter temperatures are in full swing but the snow isn’t really falling. Last year, we got pretty significant dumps on a monthly basis. I’m bracing myself for something huge. Here are two photos that say “Ottawa in the winter” for me.
