Took a series here after this tree caught my eye.

Hoarder's unwanted couch

January 23, 2012 by alex brzezinski in "couches"

I took a photo of this couch a few months ago - not being quite sure that it was unwanted- and I am still not sure as it has been in the driveway of this house since. The funniest part is I feel that the stuff underneath it keeps getting higher.

Twilight

January 22, 2012 by alex brzezinski

I have heard that the best time to take architectural shots is that time when the ambient light is complemented by the artificial. Not the best example, as often you want the neon of a storefront, but here the lamppost is not too blown out.

Pharmaprix Construction

A bit of controversy about this building in my town of Montreal West, but I am always happy to have a new photographic subject.

Super Clarity Slider #3

January 20, 2012 by alex brzezinski

At my camera club we did an evening on post-processing portraits, and I found it interesting that many people had downloaded multiple presets for Lightroom but that they rarely use but one or two. This preset I gravitate to when I have a certain type of image like the ice on the window here.

Decarie expressway 2

Hard to believe this is the exact same shot - just with a different cropping.
I am always fascinated by lines, and you don't see them too often on Decarie.

Useless door #45

You have to look at bit more carefully when it snows - any I see now are from the procrastinators!

Nothing over a dollar

January 18, 2012 by alex brzezinski

Two of the three prices are over $1. In fairness I cut off "et plus" after the 1$ - but what does that mean anyway?!

Really a nothing picture, but I liked it - probably should have been an instagram.

Unwanted couches

January 14, 2012 by alex brzezinski in "couches"

I was wondering if I was going to do this another year or not. I felt that I needed a break; but I spotted these from the bus and walked back two blocks to get them, so I guess I am doing it again. Last year I photographed all in portrait orientation and as environmental to make it different, but this year I will take some advice I heard that the best time to take a portrait orientation photo is immediately after taking a landscape version.

Hockey Game

January 13, 2012 by alex brzezinski

I was excited to go to the Blues game on Tuesday, and took these with my point and shoot. I think I would have got a photo of a goal - if the Canadiens could score. Was fun to see an old neighbour and friend of the family (before they moved to Ottawa) on the big screen. Thanks Ted.
