I first started realizing that our family camera was totally incompetent because every time we took a night portrait mode photo or any mode actually, it looked like our souls were coming out of our bodies. The blur was that bad. So after years of convincing my parents, we get a Canon Rebel T4i and I am beyond excited to [...]

We’re nearing the end of summer, and the beginning of the mad rush of vacations and deals that accompany the last two weeks of August. I’ve been gone the past few weeks, and have had more than my share of airports, airplanes, crying children, and being sick. Like Alice (who volunteered in Tanzania), I volunteered in various hospitals and orphanages [...]

In my last two post, Part Uno and Part Dos, I talked about Cuba. Here’s another post about Cuba. Third times the charm, yeah? Yes. But yes, this is the finale of my Cuba posts. This post will have a lot of extra photography. I’m assuming you’ve heard of Ernest Hemingway, the great literary mind that wrote The Old Man [...]

So in my last post, I talked about the resort we stayed at — Las Morlas, and visiting the tallest bridge in Cuba (I won’t repeat the name just because I can’t spell it). But now, I’m gonna talk about touring Havana; the capital of Cuba. The drive from Las Morlas to Havana was around one-two hours, but the drive [...]

Well, this is fairly overdue, but hey! I thought it’d be fun to share my spring break adventures to Cuba. So I heard that Calgary was cold when I was gone, and it just made my trip so much more gratifying. Okay, apart from that, I had a super fantastic time because my best friend was there to keep me [...]

In case you didn’t know, the “Big Apple” refers to NYC. Over the last few days I was fortunate to be vacationing at New York and I thought I’d share some of the photos I took. A view of the city. Can you spot the Empire State building? The Brooklyn Bridge connects Manhattan and Brooklyn together and was [...]

Well. For many of us, it’s officially the last week of school. Report cards are being handed out, exams are (finally!!!) ending, and we’re starting to really think about how we’ll fill our time during summer, the best season of all. So I thought I’d put my two cents in! If you’re thinking of getting your fun from the outdoors [...]

Paris, France. A destination brimming with history, character, excitement, beauty, and namely new experience. The desire to explore such an astonishing locale is generally found within most individuals. Whether it be for the staple of France, The Eiffel Tower, the majesty of the Arc de Triomphe, the refine tastes of the Louvre, or perhaps the exotic yet strange tastes of French cuisine, [...]

This is a shot I took in Waterton, AB a couple Springs ago. It is taken at the top of the “Bear’s Hump Hike.” If you are ever in Waterton, I really recommend this hike simply for the amazing views it provides at the top. You can also capture a stunning shot of the entire town as well as spot Waterton’s popular: Prince [...]

I recently had the chance to visit San Francisco, CA, to explore, for the first time, America! A popular tourist destination, San Francisco is known for its cool summer fog, intimidating rolling hills and streets, famous land marks such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz federal penitentiary, cable cars and its massive Chinatown. The sprawling city of San Francisco was [...]

Summer is finally here! It’s time to take a break from school work and have fun! I wasn’t satisfied with the existing lists I found, so I’ve created my own list of some awesome stuff to do in the summer. Want some ideas? Take a look below: 1. Go swimming! With weather above 25 degrees Celsius, there isn’t a better [...]
