Bokeh Wednesday seems to come faster and faster in the fall season and I seem to be less and less prepared.

The shorter days are really throwing off my shooting schedule. Will have to adapt some how. HBW in the meantime!

I finally made it out to check out this bridge. Barely. And leave it to my luck to have part of the blue lights out of order. Can you spot it?

Its amazing how short the blue hour is in the fall/winter. In fact when its cloudy I don’t think there’s any blue at all. There’s light, and then there isn’t. I’ll have to get back out here a few more times to look for some different results.

End of service :`(

For nearly 5 years, back when I was shooting film, my Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS delivered fine image after fine image. Even when my composition weak, I could rest assured that this lens would still deliver a technically superior image.

Over the last few years I found that I used my 70-200mm less and less and when I did pull it out of the bag it was grossly under utilized and usually a comlete overkill for the subject at hand.

I figured that it was time for the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS to get a new home where it would once again have its IS pushed to the limits and have its aperture blades actuating in full glory.

So this last Wednesday this hero moved on, leaving my camera bag with a huge void to fill.

Hell has frozen over

I’ve been trash talking the PS3 console ever since it came out. Mostly because it lacked a proper online presence and I still think its not quite there compared to the XBOX Live experience. Also the PS3 lineup just didn’t seem all that attractive to me.

But the PS3 is almost another year older, the system is more mature and there seems to be a few more interesting titles coming out. Namely Little Big Planet.

If you want to show me the reigns a bit or slap me around in LBP, feel free to hook up.

2/52, originally uploaded by kennymatic.

I don’t work or live anywhere near False Creek yet I’m there almost every week that means I’m shooting in the area almost every week.

I’ve decided to start one of the silliest projects evar. False Creek 52! That’s right, False Creek a Week, every Friday!

I’m re-labelling my post from last Friday as 1/52.

I have to thank ~*Vicki*~ for inspiring this shot. She posted a wonderful Japanese maple shot for Bokeh Wednesday last week which really sparked my leaf picture drive.

Happy Bokeh Wednesday everyone!
