Banana Flower

Banana Flower

This photo was taken while vacationing in the Bahamas, on an estate owned by the late Bob Marley, whose wife Rita now runs the property as a guest resort. Situated away from the main tourist area, the main house features a sitting room that pays homage to her husband and his music. The grounds were..
Vanilla beans

Vanilla beans

Freshly harvested vanilla beans laying out to dry. This photo was taken at a spice plantation in Munnar, Kerala in the south of India. Vanilla is one of over thirty varieties of spices being grown and cultivated there. Needless to say, we went home with samples of as many transportable items as possible, including several..
Fireworks

Fireworks

This photo was taken from the rooftop of a 12 story building on boulevard St. Laurent, during the international fireworks competition. Risking life and limb, leaning over the edge of the roof with 300mm lens fully extended and winds gusting at what felt like 100 miles an hour, was well worth it for the shot.
The perfect eggplant

The perfect eggplant

A perfect purple eggplant. Sunlit and suspended between the young green leaves. Captured at the Montreal Botanical Gardens August 6th.
Olympic stadium

Olympic stadium

How strange a structure is our Olympic stadium? Just check out the expression and listen to the questions as any unknowing tourist (ours were friends from NY) inquire about this bizarre creature reaching into to the heavens. Even more ridiculous and confusing is when we, who grew up during its construction, try to explain the..
Corner balcony in Montreal’s Plateau

Corner balcony in Montreal’s Plateau

Typical, yet not so typical, corner balcony in Montreal’s Plateau area. Love the green against the blue, brown, white and the repeating squares and hearts amongst other geometrics in the wood, glass, bricks and metal. Never forget to look up when walking the streets of our beautiful city.
Nassau Bahamas

Nassau Bahamas

This picture was taken in Nassau, Bahamas from the beach while looking away from the ocean to the backs at the homes along the strip. It was in a more private area, away from the popular, more crowded beaches and tourist area. I was attracted to the weather worn paint and texture of the wall,..
Vintage car

Vintage car

This photo was taken on the grounds of Boothill Graveyard, located near near Tucson, Arizona one of my favorite locations in the American southwest. Besides the incredible landscape of the area, which includes multiple mountain ranges, hiking trails and magnificent lighting it is still small and underdeveloped enough to harken back to the old days..
The Dancer

The Dancer

This photo was taken in Italy, on the island of Capri in July 2009. A beautiful place on a magnificent day while enjoying yet another lovingly prepared Italian cafe lunch. Antique wares from a shop on the opposite side of the narrow winding road casting lively shadows against the whitewashed concrete wall.
Laundry

Laundry

My fascination with laundry dates back to my childhood when I would admiringly watch my next door neighbour perform her daily task of hanging loads of freshly washed clothes out to dry. She would begin by coming out onto the raised balcony through the screen door off the kitchen and drawing in the line until..
