So headley and I head out to shoot the stars near Monarch. All of the roads are dirt and gravel. With most of the snow melting lately, the main route to where we wanted to go was all flooded. We headed back to a main gravel road, and turned down a farm field to flip a shitty. I even tested the ground to make sure it wasn’t muddy before pulling into the field. Turns out 5 feet ahead of us was a mud bog, and we sunk right in. After a half hour of pushing the car in the mud, we grabbed two jackets full of train track rocks to get some traction. We get to the main road, and shot a short timelapse, and then a timelapse back to the city to find a car wash.

Apparently swollen members are swinging through our city soon, so i dropped their track in here. Wind Effect by Matthew Harty.

Last night was a lot clearer than the previous night we went out to shoot. So I threw my camera and tripod up on my back deck and just left it there for a half hour, just because.

I had planned on meeting up with Danny Ponomar, and Rob Olson to go shoot stars outside of town, but by the time we added a few more photogs to the roster it was cloudy. We ended up over at the westside mine site, and walked around trying to shoot something semi interesting. Here’s one of the shots I took, its composed of four photos and composited in photoshop with various perspective shifts to get the straight lines.

So I finally booked my flight back to Toronto, I leave in 6 days! I’m going to check out CMW ’09, and meet up with my friends from Incura who booked two shows out there. I was looking through some of my old CMW files, and found these two shots. Thought I would re-post them as I’m getting more amped to head back out east and shoot.

Here is a shot from the opening ceremonies right as they declare the games open. Fisheye!

Cory Baines? Is that you?! Hadn’t seen this kid in a while, and with everyone wearing goggles, its hard to tell who anyone is. Thanks for hitting the rainbow rail for me baines. Cheers!

Spent the whole day up at Castle shooting the Boarderline Jib in the Park Comp with Jason Headley and Logan Lizzi. Here’s a shot early in the day with Jason quickly finding out you have to be fast if youre shooting at the “sweet angle” spot. More photos to come soon!
