For a while now, I have been thinking about what my photography is all about. Wondering if it is about recording moments of life or if it is about telling a story. Sometimes, a situation or an environment makes me want to tell something. Something that is not immediately evident from the environment itself. Sometimes it’s not even there, but the feeling of the story makes me click that shutter.

Having a story in mind when you click that shutter seems to be a good idea. Some pro photographers even try to say that if you don’t have a story to tell with your picture, don’t even take it.

The time has come to ramp things up a little. While seeing pictures of wild seas and waves is nice, it might be nice to see them in action as well. So here is an edition that contains video files instead of only pictures.

The lead picture is still a still picture… The rest, well, come and see.

Yes, my phone tells me regularly that I am in “roaming” mode. Without ever leaving the province. I just hope they won’t charge me roaming fees for stepping outside.  Roaming around is most definitively recommended for anyone that wants to keep a healthy head and lifestyle.

Sitting inside, doing the job and not moving around will sooner or later become fatal. Going outside in a pouring rain may do the same. But at least you’d have had some fresh air while kicking that bucket .

I love trails. Walking along paths that seemingly go either nowhere or take forever to get to the destination. It doesn’t mean I take them for their whole length though. No, short stretches on them in different places are good enough. When I arrived in Liverpool, NS, I had no idea that one of those trails would start just close to my house.

Google maps showed some mysterious “road” across the river, but nothing to be seen on Streetview. Once the unboxing for the house was done, I decided to go and discover what that “mysterious” path across the river was. It turned out to be a complete (incomplete) railway line.
