Techno Toaster

In album Weekly Photo Project 2013

The theme for this week is "Technology". Does it not seem ridiculous, when half the world has no bread to eat, that so much technology has been invested into making toast? In contrast the bread in here is a staple food for so many and is made in a time honoured traditional way, from sourdough. So old meets new.

Atlantic Waves

Atlantic Waves – Steven Kennard 2013

The clarity of the water and the beautiful colours really appealed to me in these wild waves crashing on the shores of Newfoundland.
– Cape Spear, Newfoundland, March 2013

Inspired by today’s theme on #joinindaily – “Waves”, I found my images originally taken at that time and created a gallery for them.

Orchid

In album Project 52 B&W

This orchid was photographed using focus stacking technique – 40 macro shots stacked to create a depth of field that is impossible to achieve any other way.

For those interested in the technical information, I used the 180mm Canon macro lens with the camera attached to a Stack Shot focusing rail and using Zerene Stacker to combine all the file information into one finely detailed shot.

Above the Blue

In album NovaScotiaLandscapes

Paraglider above the ocean at Lawrencetown Beach, Nova Scotia. Not too much landscape, more skyscape, but it is a scene from the Nova Scotia coastline.
