Door to the World

July 4, 2015 by Dale 1 Comment

greek door

So many photographers, myself included, are fascinated with doors. Doors are expressions of culture. Architectural flourishes, they are among the final touches on a building, the architectural equivalent of the cover of a book, and many will consider them carefully as expressions of what might lie within. Doors are symbolic, like walls (previously described), as…

Off-Season

Off-Season

On our recent trip to the Îles de la Madeleine, and on a grey Father’s Day afternoon, Jessica and visited a little town called Fatima and from there took a walk on the local beach (Plage du Nord). As we arrived in the parking lot, however, we were presented with as out-of-place a vision as…

Happy Canada Day

July 1, 2015 by Dale 3 Comments

Oh Canada Day

The first of a series taken on my recent exploration of the Îles-de-la-Madeleine … what better way than to start with a photo of a flag from the ship’s mast on this day of Canada’s birth.

My Muse

June 30, 2015 by Dale 14 Comments

My Muse

You are the stars that show me the way in the deepest dark, You flow the lyrics to my life, give words to the beat of my heart, You are the movements of my hips, a dance upon a busy street, You are and will always be my past … my present and my future,…

Broken Earth ~ Perspective in Focus

June 8, 2015 by Dale 4 Comments

Broken Earth 1

The one of the things that I love most about photography is that it grounds me in the moment and gives me pause …. In that space, there is a possibility to see the world and see it different: in this case, the earth itself. I don’t think I’m particularly remarkable because I took a…

Vividly Blue

June 7, 2015 by Dale 5 Comments

There are few colours that capture the human condition’s imagination quite like blue. The colour of the sky, it is heaven where it lands upon the eye. Sapphire in a kiss, the Mediterranean waters I always miss. Yet blue is a colour that Mother nature reserves for few and rare it is to discover it…

“On the Way” ~ Ferry Passage

June 4, 2015 by Dale 3 Comments

Gulls on the Way

Life is a journey filled with journeys and in every journey there is passage … and in this in-between there is discovery to be beheld if we just move our focus from front to side and back. Indeed, I’m often struck how different the world looks behind us than when viewed going forward. In this…
