So much to see and photograph in Guatemala, but with only a week with my son, I wanted to enjoy the time with him rater than spending all the time looking through the viewfinder ...

| Antigua in the AM |
... that said, I did take a camera suitable for packing light in a single carry-on sized backpack that was my luggage for the week.
6 AM waiting for the shuttle bus to pick us up outside the hostel and take us to Pacaya for our volcano hike, I pulled out the P&S camera to capture some of the local street ... and of course a lone figure walked by as if on queue.
Another vintage / textured treatment for this one ... it's how it felt to me.

I decided to change things up this weekend, not go to the cottage and spend the time paying visits to a couple of friends ...
On Saturday morning, Lynn and I headed to Paris, ON to visit 'Piper & Oak", the Home Decor and Furniture store owned by a couple of friends. I missed their 1 yr Anniversary when I was on vacation over the July 1 Holiday and was long overdue to pop in and say hi.
We decided to go early and have breakfast in town then walk around for a while exploring. I decided to take my infrared converted camera for a different look to the images I might make. A change of scenery, a different camera have a way of getting the creative juices flowing and Saturday it was no different.

Made while we sat on the deck of 2 Rivers Restaurant waiting for breakfast to arrive, the sun was shining warm and bright, fly fisherman were working the pools and eddies along a wide shallow section of the Grand River when one decided to walk along to the next promising spot.
The surreal quality of IR images processed in false colour or B&W always awakens my vision, causing me to look at things differently, making me pre-visualize while I scan the scene looking for compositions with potential.
