Getting Older
I turned 40 yesterday. Or, as I have been saying for the last few weeks, 39 + 1. The joke’s gotten a few laughs and eye rolls but honestly it’s not that far off how I feel about turning 40. When I was young 40 seemed old and it was hard to even imagine myself…

Photographers Deserve Respect Too
I took this photo a few days ago in Toronto. It’s of the jetty and swimming area, on the Toronto foreshore. I had been in Toronto dropping off some framed photos of the area for a local business. I was really happy with how they turned out and it was great to meet the owner…

2022 Lunar Eclipse
The different phases of last night’s lunar eclipse. This is 5 shots combined in Photoshop afterwards with very little editing. It was amazing watching it live, the colour was amazing and we were lucky to have a very clear sky for the whole night. Photos © CJ Levinson 2022

Valentine Photowalk & Sunset
It was my photo group’s last shoot of the year yesterday. It was a bit of a crazy shoot – we went to Valentine for the sunset, only to get hammered by a storm which sent us scurrying for cover and ended the shoot early. Then on the way home, the sky absolutely exploded with…

Swansea Sunset 08/12/2021
Wednesday night’s beautiful sunset. I almost missed the sunset as I was busy most of the day but managed to run down to the Swansea foreshore for the end of it. I didn’t have my tripod or most of my gear with me so all of these were shot handheld at 6400 ISO. The files…

Redhead Beach Photowalk
My photography group met again last Sunday. We went to Redhead Beach for the sunset. Unfortunately the conditions weren’t great for most of the shoot but it was still nice to get out and shoot again. And there was a nice burst of light and colour right at the end. Photos © CJ Levinson 2021
