Sailing, Esquimalt Harbour

YFB-316

One of the joys of my job is that I get to go sailing. Constantly. As in everyday I get to be on the water in a boat and enjoying the sea. The other day, I was out on a Sonar. It’s a 23 foot keel boat that is designed as the International Sailing Association Federation (ISAF) Paralympic class 3-person keel boat. I was out on it taking pictures for the Disabled Sailing Associations Martin 16. Shortly after (and before) these pictures, the mast on the martin 16 fell off of the boat and all pictures stopped as my boat rescue training came in to play and I (and the other staff of DSA) had to perform a rescue before the boat (and the sailors) drifted in to the rocks.

housekeeping

Emily

I think it’s in order to post a few housekeeping notes here. My schooling is done, I’ve finished my portfolio, and I’ve graduated as a Professional Photographer. For the next couple of months I will be concentrating on volume of pictures that I can add to my portfolio. You’ve probably noticed that I have (once again) changed the blog around. I’ve done this because this is no longer my primary site for pictures. I’ll still post new pictures from recent shoots on here in the posts, but the majority of pictures will go on the new site.

You can find the new site at www.kerrphotography.ca

On another equally important note, I’ve added an RSS feed button on the sidebar so that you don’t even have to come here to read the post. You can subscribe by clicking on the link. Also, just because I’m working on putting together a new portfolio, doesn’t mean that I am unavailable for work, in fact, the opposite is true. I’m looking for work and open for any ideas you might have. Feel free to contact me by email at matthew@kerrphotography.ca.

Done?

Well, I’m now officially done school. Sort of. I’m done with my portfolio, it’s been handed in. I’m done with classes, they’ve been over for a while. I’m done with paying money, printing pictures, assignments, and all of the other things that I’ve been doing with my life for the past 10 months. What’s the first thing I did after I realized all of this? I took pictures. Continue reading →
