- Fujifilm X Pro 1 high ISO samples and AF speed test (The AF is faster on the 18mm than the 35mm but it's still slow compared to that of a DSLR. I would love to have seen a focus-tracking test.)
This journal documents my experiences with a Canon 50D, my first DSLR camera, purchased on Oct. 16, 2008. The camera was end-of-lined by Canon in July 2010 and the 60D was announced.

How many different ways can you photograph something you see everyday and that millions of people have photographed? I try to photograph reflections of the CN Tower on buildings and in this case, a puddle.
Friday Foto: Hockey Hall of Fame Sculpture
Ansel Adams once said, "A good photograph is knowing where to stand."
These two photographs of the sculpture outside the Hockey Hall of Fame were taken from roughly the same location.

- Martin Parr, street photographer (The article includes a four-part documentary (English with Dutch subs). Looking at the photos makes photography look easy. But then you watch the documentary and see his technique and you begin to have second thoughts about your skills.)

- Best lenses for the D800 (the 50mm didn't make the grade; maybe I'll start shooting at 35mm)

Originally in colour, converted to greyscale and levels adjusted. I felt comfortable converting to b&w because the flowers are white. I might do a before/after series of this photo.
