		<title>Family Portraits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t posted in awhile. I had a nice busy few weeks but I also had some frustrating technical mysteries that kept me virtually silent. First of all &#8211; a big THANK YOU to Shannon at Yahoo Small Business who figured out the login/plugin conflict issue on my website, otherwise, I still would be unable &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Fernandina Island, Galapagos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tuesday morning I returned to Toronto after spending an amazing week on Ecoventura&#8217;s M/Y Eric yacht exploring the stunning natural beauty of the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador. This photo was taken early in the morning on Fernandina Island. I was transfixed by the huge waves roiling into the black lava shoreline when &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Steve Nash and the Toronto Stock Exchange</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My shoot today was a straight forward assignment &#8211; to capture NBA Phoenix Sun&#8217;s Steve Nash ringing the Toronto Stock Exchange opening bell for Tuesday, September 13th. The room was well lit so I was able to shoot natural light at a high ISO setting using a moderate zoom lens at its widest angle to &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Photo Jewelry and Image Art Becomes Part of Portrait Packages</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a long time I have wanted to create high-quality photo jewelry pendants out of my images. I wanted the portrait pendants to be reminiscent of the sentimental lockets popular from the 1840s to &#8217;60s. This summer I made one for a special friend in Vancouver with her family&#8217;s portrait enclosed &#8211; one that I &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Ottawa Folk Festival</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Access is Everything. Getting good photographs of musicians performing is contingent on specific criteria: high ISO DSLR camera body, long lens preferably with fast aperture and press credentials for access to the photo pit. Most bands or venues allow photographers to shoot for the first 2 or 3 songs and that is plenty of time &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Cottage Country</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Drive two hours (even less) from downtown Toronto and the landscape changes dramatically. The open endless horizons are dotted with farm houses and picturesque small towns. Roadside stands beckon with fresh produce and homemade baked goods. Last weekend we took the country drive to Georgian Bay on Lake Huron and visited the towns of Collingwood, &#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend I finally made it to the famed Ottawa Bluesfest. With an impressive roster of musicians spanning almost two weeks of shows, it was tough narrowing down who to see. But in the end I knew I could not miss Blue Rodeo (Friday July 15th) or Blackie and The Rodeo Kings (Saturday July &#8230;]]></description>

		<title>Collaborative Art: Photography and Encaustic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[These are two collages I created using digital sampling and painting from several source images to create a unique new image. I really like them and the direction they were heading, yet I felt they still needed that mysterious something extra to feel complete. I filed them away into the vast digital purgatory known as &#8230;]]></description>
