My “Workers” photos featured on SteveHuffPhoto.com!
Ten of my “workers” images have been featured on the popular photography site SteveHuffPhoto.com!

I’m honoured and would like to thank Mr. Huff for his ongoing support of my work!

Donald – A portrait (the worker series).
Taken yesterday.
You know, people like Donald who keep Toronto going are some of the most generous folk I know when it comes to posing for photos. They never think of themselves as natural models, but their unpretentious and light-hearted spirit always comes through in the images and makes for great portraiture.
Thanks Donald!
I’ve taken a few other “worker” series portraits: The now famous Mike, and the recent Raymond.
Also, later this morning, I will be posting a link to a “workers” series of 10 images I put together for Steve Huff, the editor of the popular photography site SteveHuffPhoto.com. Stay tuned!

Two Sunday mornings open in March for Practical Teaching.
If you’re a photography novice in the Toronto area and are interested in one-on-one Practical Photography – Teaching, I currently have two Sunday sessions available in March:
March 4 & 25 (morning sessions)
The two hour sessions are tailored to your needs and are meant to be a non-intimidating way of getting out there and taking photos!
If you want to learn more about my teaching sessions, please see here.
Thanks,
—Peter.
Forever young.
A capricious breeze passes, ruffling his hair as the image is taken.
This shot works on a personal level, but also because of the mirroring going on: the sprawling “limbs” of the metal bars echo the branching tree limbs on the opposite side of the frame.

Notice also that all of the “limbs” (metal bars, human arm, tree branches) connect and span the frame:

Of course, I wasn’t thinking about all of this when I saw and captured this moment.
In reality, I crouched down and peered through the viewfinder, taking advantage of the wide-ish perspective offered by my 35mm lens and dynamically composed my shot until things looked just right.

Dancing (about our memories).
In this frame, they exist perpetually in motion, yet perpetually frozen in time.
We often review the images of our memories this way… in stop-start sequences. Each frame conjured from the darkest recesses of our minds, simultaneously blurry-and-sharp, complete-and-incomplete, and… out of sequence.
