I am a working photographer, videographer, and drone pilot. I’ve been serving the Niagara region for 2 decades.
This is the blog section. It’s not about work, you can read that on the other pages and see some portfolios if you want to. This page is about the fun things in my life. Photography. Nature. Technology. And whatever else I feel like writing about. It’s about life, the universe, and everything. From Carl, your friendly neighbourhood Camera Guy.
Breathe
There are many things that can, and often do, go wrong at a wedding. One possibility that most don’t worry or even think about is media card or equipment failure. After a long day working hard to capture the event from start to finish, a photographer still has to put that card into a computer……
Here Comes Halloween
As I type the second week of September is ending. Which means that Halloween is over six weeks away. So why am I posting this? Because designs take time to make and time to market and time to do their job. And because I like to plan ahead, this design is ready to rock and…
More Changes
Just a quick update to say that as part of the site makeover I have reorganised the menu system and added links to some of my portfolios under the Services tab, in a new Photography section. So if you want to see how my conference photography might look before hiring me, or check out my…

Possibly as it is a fairly small beach. Possibly as across the road is a cemetary. Most likely, the horses contributions play a role, too. All I know…

IOTW: The Bridge
Clarence Street bridge in Port Colborne straddles the Welland canal at this entrance to the downtown core of the City. Regular visitors will know I go up in a plane and circle the city occasionally. Which gives some amazing images. But the thing about planes is, you can’t ask them to stop while you take…
Repurposing
Tomorrow sees the annual Port Colborne Optimist Club garage sale and book giveaway. Details on that community event are on the club web site, here. The members rifled their belongings to find things to donate. An annual fundraiser, all proceeds go to community projects. Repurposing old, often beloved items, is a rebirth of sorts. Dusting…
New Look
Visitors might have noticed site content jumping around as I worked on the new look. Still tweaking. I’m a lot happier with it. I’ve been future-proofing and giving her a long needed overhaul. Much new functionality is now in place. Speed and reliability is actually better than ever as I’ve blitzed some bugs. Still some…
