Welcome to my Blog!
Crossing
The flash illuminated the reflective tape on the sign an made it glow. Now, instead of drab colours, I had the dramatic colours of the sign contrasting with the drab bluish-grey sky. I set out to photograph one of the taken-for-granted features of the prairie landscape and I’m pleased with the results.
Prairie Grasses
The subdued reds combined with the straw-coloured grass are a fine combination. Add some golden hour lighting and you have a photograph.
Contemplation Light
Union Point United Church has been a long-standing subject for me. It's a beautiful country church and cemetery located between the lanes of Highway 75, one of Manitoba's busiest highways. As a photographer, I'm on the lookout for visual stories. In this case, seeing this quaint little country church sitting quietly with cars and trucks rushing by makes for a compelling visual narrative.
Today at Home X
Looking for photographic subjects around the house can be tough because I’m so used to everything I see. It takes some mental juggling to shift from seeing things I use everyday to looking for interesting light, shapes, and patterns.
Winter Bulrushes
Anyway, you have before you another scene I came across last weekend when I took my camera for a drive. I actually drove past this scene, realized there were bulrushes sticking out of the snow, then reversed back to take a photograph.
Eigengrund Cemetery
I’m grateful to people in the community who have worked to preserve monuments like the Eigengrund Cemetery sign to help us remember the communities that came before us.
Bill Enns Seeding
My farmer dad had no capacity (or inclination) to understand why I had to take pictures of everything. He cared about me, though, and if I was interested in something he would let me go at it, even if he thought it was “a bunch of nonsense”.
Antler Garage
People usually decorate their houses in like with the “rules” of the neighbourhood. The rules tend to relax for the garage out back. I loved how this fellow (I’m assuming its a fellow!) decorated his garage.
Autumn Abstract
When viewing photography, we expect a representational approach that is similar to how we see the world around us. I’d like to invite you to step out of that way of seeing when you view Autumn Abstract. Enjoy the richness and subtle variations of the colour that the forest displays every autumn.
Evening Elevator
Pool elevators uses this great reflective metal siding that made the elevators glow when the sun was low enough in the sky. This beautiful reflected light magnifies the impact of the elevator's iconic shape.
Lonely Tree Out West
I just love the colour in this photograph. It looks even better full screen - check out my lonely tree gallery to see the full sized version. CLICK HERE to view on the GALLERY page.
Cloud-Y
As it happened, there was a whole layer of light and colour that I hadn’t seen in the underexposed slide. Moving the sliders revealed the shape and colour of the light that had been hiding behind the cloud formation.
Prairie Farmstead - New Additions
New additions to the Prairie Farmstead Gallery.
Icicle Cord
Colour or black and white - I can’t decide. Learn more about the making of Icicle Cord at Kerry Enns Photography.
Anemone
I love the textures in this photograph and the delicate beauty they represent.
It’s Fuchsia!
It’s fuchsia and it’s fantastic!
Winter Field and Sky
Today the overcast sky left the landscape looking flat and drab. So, I looked up and saw the subtle texture and colours in the sky itself.
Portage West Sunset
When arranging my last stay I asked for a west-facing balcony room so that I could experiment with time lapse photography. Here is my experiment.
September Geraniums
It is the time of year when we experience transitions. Last week we had beautiful summer weather with high 20s and cloudless skies. The potted geraniums we have growing on the deck were being bathed in beautiful light when I photographed them.
Field Lines
Field Lines was one of those "slam on the brakes" moments. The sun was sinking in the southwest sky, just kissing the top of the treeline.
