So I was playing around with the camera at ISO 3200 – there sure is a lot of noise going on at that end of things. Still, from what I hear, I’m glad I have a Canon.

HAL ISO3200
Boo
Remember in Mario you had the Boo’s (and baby-boo’s but not a-buggin-me-a-buggin you) that were scared and shy when you looked at them but came to sneak up on you when you looked the other way?
That’s like me with the ladies… sneaky.
Dangerous Streets
The streets just aren’t as safe as they used to be. I think it’s a matter of upbringing, nurture vs. nature – that sort of thing.
I mean look at this shot, people, minding their own business – they can’t even skateboard without coming across a child so violent, so untamed, that it has to be kept on a leash.
Sams
I’m not like everyone else. I won’t miss Sam the Record Man, an iconic music shop on Yonge Street in downtown Toronto. Unlike most people, I did not get my first album there; it was at HMV – Beck’s Mellow Gold (and by album I mean CD). When I hit my teens and started to collect music, I ventured to the HMV flagship, rival to Sam’s, and by comparison, I could actually FIND what I was looking for at HMV.
It was clean, organized, labelled, stocked, and lacked the music pretence that some staff at Sam’s could come off with.
Obviously, in the end that doesn’t matter; the medium has changed, I get my music on teh internetz now.
Rainy Lay
I haven’t been so into taking the camera out this week, I mean, it’s been dark, I don’t want the hefty bag to wrinkle my shirts well before I get to work, and, well, my subjects are all the same. I’m not inspired to go out and walk around like I did a few months ago – I follow the same path every day, there’s very little time to explore. Busy busy busy.
But it’s what I make of it right? It’s how I handle what I’m given and sometimes a quick break is all you need to see things with fresh eyes. This weekend Jonathan will be borrowing my camera for a wedding he’s shooting and that’s it – I’ll be naked.
Oh, and my girlfriend’s in town too. ZING!
