Canada to California

Super excited about this next leg!  The lens is on it's way to meet Alan Sailer in California.  I love niche types of photography, Alan specialises in super high speed images.  Inanimate objects, blown into smithereens by one of many methods, usually involving high speed projectiles.  Colorful explosions frozen in time.  His flickr is just jam packed with amazingness.  Here is a nice example.

Shayna Hartley

Shayna was also nice and snappy in getting the lens shipped on.  Thanks Shayna.  Hope you enjoyed your time with it.  Your portrait shot made me laugh a little bit .... either the lens has grown during it's travels, or you have really small hands ;)

Please check out her blog.  She has a fantastic collection of nature photos

Iceland to Canada

That's enough Aurora for one project. Well, I could quite happily just look at Aurora pictures all day long, but I am a bit weird.  Larus was super snappy in getting the lens shipped out.  Thanks Larus, we might have had a little trouble getting the lens into Iceland, but there was no trouble getting it out :)  Next up is a young lady named Shayna Hartley, a nature photographer from Ontario in Canada.

As usual ... a photograph by Shayna.


And a paragraph written by Shayna

Hi! My name is Shayna Hartley, I am a 22 year old photographer from Ontario, Canada. My passion lies with wildlife and nature related subjects, although I do venture in to other genres from time to time. I have always been interested in art, but hadn't really delved in to photography until my late teens. My camera has brought me close to the things I love most, wildlife and the outdoors, and has created some amazing opportunities and memories that will last forever. In the next five years I would like to find myself finished a degree in photojournalism, travelling, and enjoying life and the beautiful things that I find along the way.

Best of luck!  Can't wait to see what you track down.
