Weekend with a Canuck

Iagox86 flew all the way down from Winnipeg to my humble little town for the weekend. Our schedules only allowed us three nights and one day to romp through the city, but we made the most of it.

We spent the first night underground, exploring the biggest drain in the city.

5. I absolutely love how the reflections play in the lights.


6. Iago modeled for a new avatar.


7.


8. Bonus shot. I'm still loving the reflections, and I'm amazed at the effect achieved with just a simple white balance adjustment in this one.




Night #2 was spent at the abandoned industrial park, where I did a little experimenting with shadows.

And with that, my weekend with a Canuck was over. Great times, new friends, and hopes for a near-future visit to Canada. Thanks for looking!

It was indeed a good weekend! I hadn't planned on doing an exploring in Kentucky, but eschaton found me and, well, I'm glad he did!

All my sets from Kentucky are here:

Excellent photos, especially the underground ones. Looks like a fun, varied weekend.

reckless thoughts abide; anachronistic and impulsive.

loosely jacketed against the cold and ten thousand worlds for the choosing.

The underground ones were definitely my favourite, too, even though the other two places were much more interesting. Apparently drains are photogenic, who knew?

Haha, I should have known without looking. That's actually two pictures merged, I couldn't get the damn lighting right.

Generally when I'm traveling, if somebody else can get there, they're welcome to share my hotel room and hang out when I'm not doing conference stuff. All you gotta pay is the flight. And don't worry, no hanky panky!

Sounds like a plan. This could actually be fun, let me know where you'll be and when in the upcoming months

They were a bit odd, yes, but that's how the camera recorded the scene. I rather dig it.

A lot of mine wound up green or purple that day. Must have been the weird American lighting or something.

Your shadows and colors make me happy.
And I absolutely love the camera obscura thing going on in the hospital.

(I have a pinhole photography book with a room entirely blacked out except a small dime sized hole in a window, which displayed the image of outside onto the walls. It'd be totally sweet to do that inside an abandonment.)

I've no sense, I lick electric fence; I put barbed wire in my pants and do a Celtic dance.
- My Canon 300D is beat to hell, a bit finicky, and a 'lil loose, much like everything else I own...
