Photo shoot

Wow, it has been far too long since I posted anything here. My life for the past months has been - school, work, gym, homework, a bit of photography, eat and sleep. (Not exactly in that order, but you get the picture).

It's February, and in this part of Canada, it is one of the coldest and wettest months of the year. I would love to do another outdoor/nature photo shoot, but that will have to wait till it gets a little warmer.

After I noticed that a few of my close friends were not camera shy and very photogenic, I thought I'd ask if they would mind posing for a few pictures. To my surprise, they were very enthusiastic about it and it turned out to be a great learning experience. Again, something that I want to document and improve on.

After what seemed like months, we finally saw a full day of sunshine here in Ottawa. It was a warm -2^oC degrees with a light wind that made it feel like -5^oC, not too bad considering we're in the middle of January.

I took this opportunity to go out and get some good shots. I left my house at around 2pm, and headed for the Ottawa River Parkway. Close to my house, and quite scenic.
