#W2P At the Ark

After work, I headed over to the Ark Hotel Lounge for a #W2P event. It was a nice return to the Ark Lounge, where so many meetup's have taken place in the past. It brought back some old memories. I took a few photos within the Ark, but by no means taking advantage of the great retro-modern look of the hotel. I just sat in my little corner and took a few photos, chatted with a few people who passed by, and enjoyed the after work gathering.

Patio spaceship or skynet has arrived

Today as I was reading through my RSS feeds, I saw a reference to "skynet" being launched. In the terminator movie, the reference to launching skynet was on April 19th, 2011, which was yesterday. The end of the world should be happening soon. All that being said, I was looking for something different to take a photo of, and went into my back patio/porch and grabbed a shot of this, which looked a little spacelike and I made the correlation with the skynet article that I read today.

A hole or many holes

Was looking for something different to take a photo of, and realized that this was something that I had in my apartment. So there's a hole or many holes, depends on how you look at it.

Spring rain

This day felt like a true Spring day in Ottawa. The day started out by being a very gray day, and it eventually progressed to rain and I tried to get a few photos of the rain and the misty/foggy Ottawa. This shot looks Ottawa facing North/East from Little Italy. You can see in the distance the foggy areas that cover the top of buildings.

The other photo is an attempt of capturing the rain falling on the ground and seeing the water accumulate on the ground. I also like the different looks of the ground and the pooling of the water.

Another texture item in my apt.

When I got home from work today, I was supposed to head out, but I had a headache and rested instead. Since I had not taken a photo earlier, I had to scramble around my place and find something else I wanted to take a photo of and I decided to look for something different. I decided to look for something with some texture. I came up with this photo, it's a bit dark, sombre, but it works.

Intertwined

I was looking around my apartment for something interesting to take a photo of and came up with this. I has some texture and movement, nothing fancy, but capable of many things.

Light scales

Today I looked for something different, and came up with these photos. I decided to see how play with light and a new texture, and this is the result:

Woven Fiber

Looking forward to getting better and going outside. My photos will hopefully have a bit more life, especially with the warmer weather slowly coming and the arrival of Spring.

Texture

Sometimes I feel like this. Today, I woke up feeling like crap, darn cold! I didn't leave the house so I figured I'd look for something with a bit of texture and expressed a bit of what I felt, and here's my attempt of demonstrating that.
