I was travelling for the past few days so I'm picking up where I left off on Thursday with the Tour de PEI Stage 5. ]]>Tue, 16 Jun 2009 22:43:25 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-06-11/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-06-11/
The Tour de PEI was back again this year and completed tonight with 50 laps around downtown Charlottetown.

It's been two weeks since the last photo!

This was taken the morning of Lobster setting day last month. Was doing some file management this morning and came across this photo I had originally planned for April 6th but was never uploaded.

From the same day as yesterdays photo. ]]>Tue, 12 May 2009 09:25:37 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-11/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-11/
I've missed a few days and instead of going back to fishing boats, how about some baby foxes? I'm no wildlife photographer but will give it a try every chance I can get.

Located in the center of the city near a heavily used walking trail, a friend showed me where I could find a new family of foxes. There must have been close to a dozen little guys and 3 or 4 adults. Very brave, playful and curious with very protective parents keeping a close eye on my movements while circling around me. I was only barked at once and was chased back a few dozen feet.

This will be the first of many photos to come. 240 photos to sort through from this morning and I plan on returning tomorrow.

It's probably worth mentioning that this photo is not cropped but at 200mm. ]]>Mon, 11 May 2009 10:31:34 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-05/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-05/
Same day and almost same time as the previous photo but with less emphasis on the sky. ]]>Tue, 05 May 2009 23:02:36 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-04/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-04/
A slight diversion from the fishing boats but another photo from the same day. While there were many fishing boats preparing for the day, the sun was rising behind us. ]]>Mon, 04 May 2009 23:56:36 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-03/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-03/
I have a few more photos from Thursdays start to the season before moving on. ]]>Sun, 03 May 2009 23:26:04 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-02/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-02/
The third photo from setting day of Lobster season at North Lake, PEI ]]>Sat, 02 May 2009 23:57:43 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-01/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-05-01/
Another photo from the start of Lobster season at North Lake, PEI ]]>Fri, 01 May 2009 20:42:59 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-30/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-30/
Up at 1:30am, left the house at 2:00am for a group departure of 2:30am to be out at North Lake, PEI for the start of lobster season. Here is the first of many to come from this morning. At 6:00am, 98 boats raced off into open water to each set 300 traps. ]]>Fri, 01 May 2009 09:24:55 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-28/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-28/
An entertaining guy on the streets of Old Montreal. ]]>Tue, 28 Apr 2009 23:27:54 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-25/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-25/
This was taken during the season but the I'm sure the Bell Centre is looking a little empty now that the season is over. Security was pretty strong here and you were only allowed into the section you had tickets for. I did find a way in and made my way to center ice to get this photo before I had to leave.

In order to get the full view, this is a merge of 9 photos. ]]>Sat, 25 Apr 2009 22:04:18 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-19/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-19/
Here is the common view of downtown Montreal seen from Mont Royal. We had hiked up the side of the mountain early in the day to get a sense of the trails and view and then returned later that night in the dark for this photo.

This was built with 15 photos. The HDR Pano was a merge of five frames using three exposures for each. I did not have a tripod and was using the ledge for stability, which also means I spent all morning trying to fix the imperfections.

The top is the full width (1300x2000px) and the bottom is a center closeup. ]]>Sun, 19 Apr 2009 13:20:07 -0300 http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-16/ http://www.focusedonlight.com/index.php/image/2009-04-16/
The NHL playoffs started last night and the Boston/Montreal series will start tonight. This brick logo is part of the 100th Year Centennial Plaza at the Bell Centre.

First round Montreal to upset Boston FTW! ]]>Thu, 16 Apr 2009 06:58:45 -0300
