Photo Friday
Its Friday, and I don’t have a post, so please enjoy a photo!
Its been 3 weeks as of this writing since I picked up my Olympus PEN E-P1, and I think its time for a quick review.
Its been a while since my last post, and I thought that I would post a few pictures taken on Day 11 of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games. It was nice to get out and enjoy a very spring-like Vancouver in the middle of February.
more photos after the break.
I had the opportunity to head out to the airport and check out the new LED Olympic rings at the Vancouver Internation Airport last night. I was amazed at just how bright the rings are, and they are running on LED’s so we are not going to be flushing away a lot of money.

I was a little disappointed that the rings were not in colour, as they are capable of changing colours, but since its been running for a few days, its likely less distracting to drivers to leave it in white.
If you’re in Richmond, or near the airport, take a drive around the loop upto the departures, and you’ll get an impressive view of the rings, and they are very very bright.
Last week, I finally sold off my darkroom. I have not had the time for something that I once enjoyed so much, so it was time for my Enlarger, and other accessories to find a loving home. When we purchased our home in 2005, I had expected to have time to setup a semi-permanent darkroom in a corner of the garage. Three years later, and I still haven’t done that, and now with our first child on the way, its time to let it go.
My new “darkroom” is now my Ubuntu desktop PC, and my mobile darkroom… my macbook equipped with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. I have really enjoyed my switch to digital, and being a techie, I am more inclined to sit in front of my computer and edit a few photos when I have spare time. So I feel this is a win-win for me.
If you are curious, here were the parts that I had in my darkroom.
Next post in my photography series will be my review of the SMC Pentax DA* 50-135/F2.8 Lens.
