Recently finished a short film 'Autumn' with filmmaker Eva Colmers. The film was shot, edited and finished on 16mm. Made me fall in love with the medium all over again. Music by Mark Templeton.
The film was commissioned by the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers and will premiere at the $100 Film Festival in March.

Still working away on the Isachsen arctic weather station doc. Recently came across this image from 1970. Kodachrome was so great. Thanks to Brian Brown for sending me his slides and prints from his time at the station.
Another favorite from Isachsen 1970. Shooting some 8mm from the Bombardier snowmobile. One of my favorite photos so far. Much more to come in the new year.

A unique perspective on Hallows Eve, Halloweeniors follows a group of Edmonton Strathcona seniors as they celebrate the day of the dead in costume. While exploring their memories and thoughts, the film provides proof that this eerie holiday is not just for the kids.
Since 1976, the Senior Citizens Opportunity Neighbourhood Association (SCONA ) has been keeping seniors active in the community, supported in their attempts to remain living independently in their own homes, and leading active, happy lives.
A brief Q & A, live music, and reception will follow the film.
Free admission for seniors.

Rolls 2 through 11 were shot on my honeymoon, where we drove from Edmonton, CAN to San Francisco, USA and then back to ...
Roll 12 - home
Bye bye Kodachrome ... I'll miss you.

Congratulations Dad, on your retirement after 32 years of keeping an eye on the weather for us.
The above photo was taken by him while he worked on the DEW line in the mid 70's, early on in his career with Environement Canada.

Taken by my father the night before the tornado of July 31, 1987. The photo was taken from the 8th floor of our hotel window. We moved into our home in Millwoods the next day, and consequently had to flee from the twister.
The image of this skyline is one of my most vivd memories. It seems to have warned of things to come.
The photo is unaltered.
