Shawn and Krishna "encourage me" (tell me to stop being stupid and just try) to take more photos of outdoors. I typically don't like doing this. I'd rather just stand in nature than to take photos of it. But I'm starting to come around. The images are pleasing and easy to shoot. And people seem to like looking at them. We'll see how it goes. Don't worry, I won't turn into a landscape photographer. Pinky Promise. Krishna wanted a photo of him against an amazing starry sky with a Nova Scotia feel. We went to Peggy's Cove and waited for all the people to leave. There were a few teenagers smoking-they do bad things because they listen to music with swears-but we scared them away. Shawn helped by running blindly over the rocks looking for the perfect angle to shoot from. Krishna sat still perfectly LOL! After several attempts in photoshop, and some rough draft by Shawn we got the image you see below! I really love it. Thank you Shawn, Krishna for encouraging me to do things I don't wanna do for no good reason. Cheers, Sarah Upon closer inspection the sun set image was just begging for an inspirational hipster quote treatment. I used some wise words from LiL Jon. Update! We went out again! This time to Citadel Hill and the Halifax water front. Also Theodore The Tugboat was there.
Shawn and I went out last night to try to see some of the Perseid meteor shower. We saw a grand total of 2 meteors. Wow. But I did bring my camera and took photos of the moon. The moon was crazy!! It was so red as it started to rise, and super huge too. We went to Crystal Crescent Beach, where we have run into/(I) have followed many porcupines. I totally heard porcupines talking last night, I've watched enough youtube videos of Teddy the porcupine to know what one sounds like. It was too dark for me to see so I didn't go looking for it. Which is probably for the best. The series of photos would have been me getting closer and closer to the porcupine, then one of the ground and then one of me at the hospital because I tripped and fell on the poor guy. Yes, it's probably for the best. Until next time porcupine. (I'm doing the thing where you look all squinty and point at your eyes.)
Cheers, Sarah April 15's lunar eclipse was the first of 4 consecutive total lunar eclipses, where a full moon passes behind the Earths shadow. In this case the moon was set to be a deep red colour, sometimes referred to as a blood moon. We thought it would be an amazing opportunity to get some cool nighttime shots in. We stayed up all night and headed out to Prospect Bay in hopes of getting some beautiful coastal images of the moon. It just goes to show you that sometimes no matter how much you plan, mother nature calls the shots. There was so much fog that night we could barely see the line markings on the road, let alone an object over 384,000 km away. But all was not lost, we ended up at a small fishing village where we were able to capture this eerily beautiful picture that we hope you enjoy.
Cheers, Shawn & Sarah |
