A postcard that arrived in the mail last week has finally prompted me to get back into writing on my blog. Yes, that’s long overdue. I hope this will be a catalyst. Perhaps I’ll go back and write about other events I’ve not written about. Perhaps. Only time will tell. Here’s what this postcard from […]

The Toronto 2017 Eclipse
We weren’t in the path of “totality” and as tempting as it was to go on a road trip to get on that path I am happy to be home for a week. So I took some photos from a school yard close to home. It felt like a good idea so I went with […]
The Marinoni Hour
I have a couple of updates so I’ll make this a quick one and then move on to the next… This past weekend was a track hour record attempt by Giuseppe Marinoni (marinonimovie.com) in the Masters 80-84 Y/O Best Hour category. The lead-up and build up were huge. He set the 75-79 record 5 years […]
2017 MSA UCI MTB Photos
I’m sitting in the empty media center here at Mont-Sainte-Anne wrapping up my weekend and about to go ride the trails before I leave. Not before adding some photos from the weekend… hope you like them! DHI Photos XCO Action
A New Tool in the Camera Bag
(WARNING: camera gear geek-out. You’ve been warned) I’ll skip over saying how long it’s been since I last wrote a blog entry! People who are able to do weekly updates amaze me. It’s a labour of love although not getting to a post doesn’t mean the love isn’t there. Anyhow… ‘nuf said. New Lens I’ve […]
A Road Race and a Night of Camping
It’s funny. I’m done my IT contract now (it finished a week ago) and I’m still too busy to have time to write about the adventures on Sark and Normandy/Brittany. Hopefully I will find the time soon, there are lots of tales to tell. It was a good trip. Back on The Road Before we […]

The Victoria and Albert Museum
A Facebook comment from a friend welcoming us back and playfully asking for more photos from the V&A prompted me to put a gallery together. I’m publishing it here rather than only on FB. I’ve been neglecting my blog lately and this is a good reminder that I should be paying a little more attention […]
Another Cover
I’ve been working at this photographic next chapter for over 8 years now and I measure it by time invested and treasures uncovered. Getting a magazine cover is certainly something to be treasured. And with the latest issue of Pedal Magazine I now have my 4th cover. One was for a trade show magazine, the […]
A Sonos sound system upgrade
In 1990 I bought a nice Denon stereo system with B&W speakers from Bay-Bloor Radio. It was my first serious investment in a sound system and I quite enjoyed it for many years.Some time in early 2001 the speakers told me they were getting tired and the amp was getting a little noisy. Plus it […]
CXTO
Cyclocross racing in Toronto got a big boost with the recent CXTO event in Christie Pits Park this past Saturday. And it was a fun event to cover. Lots of people I know were there, a good turnout of racers and good crowds. I haven’t finished processing my photos yet, in part because there was […]
