Thankful

December 3, 2022 Carl Green Life

I’m a lucky guy. After a lifetime of knocks and scrapes I’ve still got my hair and most of my teeth. And a roof over my head, food in the fridge, and a wife that tolerates me. No complaints here. I went out exploring today […]

Sunset at the Lighthouse

November 30, 2022 Carl Green Design Guy, Life

I have been working my way through my photo archives. As I did so, I came across a number of images taken one lazy summer evening out on Lake Erie for an evening cruise. I reworked them and wanted to share them here. As we […]

Work Hard, Play Hard

October 16, 2022 Carl Green Design Guy, Life

Thought For The Day is a quote from Yoda: “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” Words to live by. Over my time on this earth I’ve seen many people give up when they hit hard times. I know from experience that that’s tempting […]

The Working Week Never Ends

October 14, 2022 Carl Green Life

The working week is over. The working week can begin. By which I mean there is no day off. I’ll be up before sunrise tomorrow, heading out Somewhere In Niagara. And if the weather cooperates I’ll be shooting sunrise. Possibly at this same location. It […]

Focus

July 16, 2022 Carl Green Life, Photography

Life is messy. Imperfect. Cluttered. It is important to find out what is important to you, and maintain focus. Distractions occupy the mind, eat up time, and make a person less likely to achieve their goals. Though it is always important to be open and […]

Happy Times

June 19, 2022 Carl Green Life

In 2017 I was granted Canadian citizenship. In a ceremony I will always remember I and several others swore the oath, sang the song (in both languages, no less) and signed the paperwork. Happy times indeed. After the event my beloved and I celebrated with […]

Photo Walk: Caelan’s Birthday

March 22, 2022 Carl Green Life, Photography

Some time ago I spent time with a wonderful family making a birthday outing into a photo walk. This photo walk was a family having fun, and as we went I captured the candid moments. We wanted to record the reality of a happy day. […]

Canada Hearts Ukraine

March 3, 2022 Carl Green Design Guy, Life

I’m not going to debate the politics of the situation in the Ukraine. People are dying. For me, that’s all that matters. The rest is just noise. From here in Canada, I can do nothing about events over there. But I can still help. I […]
