Today I went up to Squamish, BC. today with a couple of friends for a photo trip. It was awesome! I've yet to try my hand at landscape photography so that was today's purpose - experience! I think I enjoy photographing people more, but I did have a blast today.

    Nice shooting, I like the compositions. Even though it's all shot in the open space, some feel a bit claustrophobic, because of the cropping, which I find quite interesting. Play more with apertures and shutter speeds, as you could get better results on some of these with some experimentation, e.g. you lost a lot of details in the bright areas, such as the water of the creek, and the clouds - they are too bright/washed out.
    By the way, it would be nice if you added a break line between the photos, so they are not all connected wink.gif

    omg Adam I am completely jealous. Some of the best climbing on the entire planet there. Great photos.

    How far is your studio from here?

    I've never been outside of Richmond, Vancouver much so you've just shown me a lot of things I've been missing....

    I think your depth of field makes almost each of those pix postcard quality...I'm liking it a lot

    Awesome everyone, thanks!

    Interesting story about the boat.... its completely abandoned. So much so that it, 2 others, and the docks the rest on are 'forbidden' from the public. We had to sneak in to get the photos... it was awesome, scary, and definitely interesting. The little hut thing just on the right side of the boat picture had a skate park inside that's been destroyed...

    Awesome photos, Adam. Sometimes it's really nice just to get back to nature. I especially like the shots of the waterfall and the river.

    I just have to ask, though... in the first set of pictures, is that just a regular cigarette, or is your friend partaking in some BC bud? wink.gif

    hahah, I didn't realize he was peeing the first time I saw it. The pee kind of blends in with the grass.

    Nice photos Adam

    jgarland: That's a cigerette.... the other 'stuff' was hidden by the magical powers of Photoshop™.

    wallasaurus: Thanks smile.gif

    Dekard: haha.. you know, I didn't notice he was peeing when I took the photo? I just thought he was a cute dog...

    notman: Thanks man!

    jeremy price: Thanks man. Yah, it really does have a specific style to it, especially down by the water front. I both like and disklike that... its new to me, since being in Toronto to see this style of apartment, but every building around there looked the same. Same white's and blue's with the exception of this one orange building that looks straight ouf of Gotham City... round top, gargoyles, HUGE,...
