Actually spent a day...

...doing some photography.  The day began at a local service listening to our church guy talking about the gospel.  I am non religious but the girlfriend is into it.  Then spent about 2 hours at a local coffee shop just talking about stuff.  After the 2 hour talk, the girlfriend and I took a drive up to the Ottawa valley to visit her parents grave site.  Then the rest of the afternoon was spent at Calabogie lake taking a timelapse using the Sony a7ii with the Sony f3.5-6.3 24-200MM lens.  Then dinner at Big Bone BBQ in Kanata.  Love them wings and ribs.  Then filled up the car with car and then home.  Now I have the Sony a7ii setup on the balcony doing a time-lapse of the sunset.  I think I will sleep well tonight.  Pictures to follow.

Parc Omega

It's been a while since I've been to Parc Omega.  Last time the girlfriend and I went was probably in March of this year.  With the heat wave we've had this summer it's just not worth going.  The animals just hide in the forest to get away from the heat.  Today I did photography with maybe a dozen or so footage shots.  I did not take my camcorder with me.  Only shot 4k a few times today.  The next time I go, I will be going during the week and alone so I can concentrate more on composition of my nature shots.  We left the house around 10am and got back around 9pm after visiting the park and going for dinner after.  Let's just say it was a long and exhausting day.  But we had a lot of fun

I think this week I'll be going back to Parc Omega by myself with the Sony RX10 Mark II and the Canon Vixia G40 to do some more photography and more footage shots.  I shouldn't have taken any 4k footage yesterday.  It's just takes too much space and too much time to edit and upload.  That's why I like shooting with my Canon Vixia G40 camcorder.  It's great 1080p/60fps footage.  I also like the colours of all the Canon products.  Much better colour reproduction.
