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.
Things That Are Taken For Granted
At a recent lunch event, I popped round to take photographs for the Optimist Club. While trying to get an editorial shot of the organizers, an enthusiastic attendee was insistently making bunny ears behind the subjects. Once upon a time that would have been a problem. More takes, subjects getting antsy, tight deadlines missed and…
Brochure Design
This is a brochure design proof made for a software company. The finished item was used for a conference. Borderless, printed, folded, boxed, and delivered to a conference for handouts to attendees. This is what we do. If you have a business, an upcoming event of any kind, or just want birthday flyers, posters, brochures,…
Somewhere In The Vortex
Working through my archives for what seems like the hundredth time, I finally got around to working up this image that was originally taken at a sci-fi convention in Niagara Falls. If you’re a Doctor Who fan, you’ll get the joke. If not, become one. It’s fun. You’ll be one of the cool kids. Like…

The St. Lawrence Ferry
The Promenade in old Quebec city is a great place to be. By day, a thriving gathering place. A popular hotspot where honeymooners and tourist hordes alike wander aimlessly along the wooden mile absorbing the sounds of buskers, the smells of buskers, and the many sights to be seen. From the old fortress at one…
Sunset at the Lighthouse
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 go in to the cold winter months, I reflect on…

You’re welcome. There will be several calendars to choose from, currently there are 3 in the bag, 2 in progress.…
Three Lakers
On a cold December day, three Lakers ply their way across Lake Ontario, heading for Hamilton. Heavy wind and waves slow them, but they don’t stop. They never stop. Whatever the weather, however wild the Lake may be, they keep going. Their only rest is when it’s enforced by repairs or wintering. Neither snow nor…
