First Fridays in the Exchange

A relatively new event in Winnipeg is First Fridays in the Exchange.  It’s a great opportunity to visit with artists and galleries, as well as the boutiques and cafes in the Exchange District. Everyone opens up for public tours!  It’s fun.

Pixels Gallery goes one step further and has special mini-events to make it even more fun and a bit educational too.

I’ll be there giving a short presentation on how to take  Infrared Photographs on January 7th – the first Friday of 2011! It’s FREE!  It starts at 7:00, till 7:45 with questions and answer after. Come on in for a chat, learn a thing or 2, bring your camera – we’ll be doing free camera tests to see if your camera is capable to taking IR photos.

Come out to the Exchange on January 7, 2011, check out Pixels, I’ll be happy to answer all your Infrared Photography related questions!

Pandora Lives

Have you seen Avatar? (If you haven’t it’s the only movie worth seeing at the theatre in a long time – but be sure to see the 3D version!)

Looks like Pandora has a clone here on planet Earth.

This infrared shot was taken in Penticton in June with a converted Nikon D70, and processed with my new Nikon Capture “pre-post-processing” method.
