Images In Both B&W and Colour

Just 4 images which have not appeared in the blog before but are amongst my favourites.

This is the roof of a cave (all be it a very short one) in Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta. It was shot with 4X5 and required forward tilt of the back - an unusual situation. It often is mistaken for a pencil sketch, no matter what contrast it's printed at - simply the nature of the rock.



This is two images stitched, using my Canon 10D, 70-200 @ 200 mm. and with some tricky blending to deal with the high wind and the fact that the clouds move significantly between images and didn't match up any more.



There's something about the age represented by this image, the crumbling yet still supporting foundation despite the apparent massive weight of the sagging structure above. A single cropped image from my 10D, shot at Turner Valley Gas Plant Historic Site.



This broken window was in one of the original 1914 buildings at the Coleman Colliery below the town of Coleman in the Crows Nest Pass in south west Alberta. A sunlit red brick building in the back created the warm colour, the blue sky the reflection in the glass. Shot with Canon 1Ds2, two images stitched.
