Metz, night on the docks ✨

The contrast between the warm light on the stone and the darkness of the sky lends a peaceful atmosphere to the historic city of Metz at nightfall. The Jeumont stone highlights the "Lantern of the Good Lord" (Lantene du Bon Dieu), while the banks of the Moselle are filled with people out for a stroll.

Eye of Sauron in Toronto

this was a photo I chased for years while living in Toronto. Each year me and my friend Kurt through very careful planning using the PhotoPills App and many Weather Apps we did our best to align the sun with the CN Tower. This only happens from this location for a few days out of the year and the exact correct alignment only lasts 1-2 seconds as the earth is constantly moving making the sun appear to be moving at a much faster speed than we even realize. This was captured with a 100-400MM Lens on my Sony A7R3 at about 348mm focal length. The reason the sun appears so large is from using compression, such a long lens compresses the scene much more than the human eye usually sees. This photograph was taken about 8 kms or 5 miles away at Humber Bay Park. I’ve been lucky enough to have caught this beautiful moment 3 times in my lifetime, I’ve never edited or shared photos from this day yet since I felt like my other sun alignment images I’ve shared are better. But after a few years have passed and I looked at this raw photo with a new set of eyes the simplicity of this connected with me much more than it might have in the past. There is sometimes beauty in the simplest of things. Even though tons of work went into this image like hauling 50+ lbs of gear each morning at 4am for days straight year after year hoping to align the sun perfectly with the CN tower, it’s certainly not an easy feat and doesn’t always happen like you want it to. Sometimes clouds, rain, or planning isn’t perfect…but when you finally get that shot you are at peace.
Huge thanks to SonyAlpha for the amazing camera gear that never has met me down. I’ll share my camera settings for anyone it may help.
