The three of us haven't stayed together for almost 2o years but some sad times brought us close and as one. Silly how we distance ourselves even in our high tech world. This is how I most remember my brothers and it was great to capture them on this night. Bernie with his guitar and music, and John with his tech toys especially his computers. Although we were apart for some time before this week it felt really good to be together and remember how family is everything and how fragile life really is.
Enough said.
Michael Montano you will be so greatly missed.

Nothing like a road trip. On our way to CT USA for a gig and I found myself snapping away in the back seat by my lonesome trying different things with my camera. Craig had the tunes blaring as usual and Dave grooved with the music all by his lonesome. Snapped a quick shot just before a nod of appreciation on the tune selection.

More messing with the camera from the back seat. I was able to get a few keepers with this style as Craig, Dave, and I took the scenic highways on route back to NY.

A day of creatives at Unionville in Markham with my wide angle. I love the Sigma 12-24 and got a few keepers for sure on this day. This was a fun shot of the place I went for lunch.

I had some time to visit my brother in Miramar FL after a wedding gig in Tampa and I was surprised at how fast his kids have grown. I was also suprised at how hard it is to keep up with their energy and the never ending quest of keeping them entertained. So we went to a local park and let them run loose.

Colette and I bought some plants for the condo and needed some rocks for some potting. We decided Scarborough Bluffs would be the best place to get some rocks (rocks everywhere idiot, in fact there were some perfect ones just at the lobby of the condo that we noticed the next day). To make it more interesting as well we decided to photograph the sunrise at the bluffs and woke up at 5am with thermos and camera at hand.
Got the rocks and got the shot!

Had some free time in NY and a bunch of us went to P.S.1 and enjoyed some art and emerging DJ's do their thing. The place was jammed and the vibe was totally cool. The energy was on full and it was a great afternoon of some creatives. This shot was interesting in the fact that after a while we were smack in the middle of a group listening to the tunes and literally couldn't move anywhere. After exhausting my pic taking in my own tight space I decided to let the camera do its own shooting as it dangled from my hand...shoe level.

Birthday celebration for my cousin Pat. I think this was after he had half a bottle of beer and decided to chase it with some coke.

A celebration for my uncle Justin's birthday at my cousins new home. I was able to stop my nephew for half a second before off he went running around like crazy again with two other kids. Where do they get the energy? I didn't see any cake.

Spent a day in Elora for some creatives and took a shot of this horse just before our hike in the Gorge. I find this shot hilarious because of the composition and the accent of its mouth. I had other shots that included the horses eye or its whole head but this seems to work the best.
