I had just gotten back from two weeks in Ireland. It was late October and Halloween was just around the corner. I had barely been home a full week when I got the call from Scott Hayward up in Portland, the forecast was shaping up again. It might be worth it to do a strike mission up north, destination: Nova Scotia.

Now that we were back into hurricane / winter storm season, it was shaping up nicely and on a Friday afternoon we decided to pull the trigger. Canada, here we...
I've had a new project lately, bringing motion blurs and slow shutter work to the air with my drone photography. All it took was a few darker Neutral Density filters and I'm already thrilled my first few flights of this experimentation!
