ROAD TRIP + BIG BABY

Drove to Whitby to do a shoot at Honda this week.

(Well, actually I shot at Christ Church Cathedral for a day then finished up the Canada Post annual
report then drove to Whitby and shot. But the drive to Whitby’s what I’m talking about here.)

I’ve always been fascinated by the act of travel……moving thru time and space. I suppose
you could say that that’s what every one and thing does……moves thru time and space. But
you know what I mean. Getting in a car or plane and moving out of your regular orbit is what
I call travel.

I believe that we mostly, even in our day-to-day lives, really just skim the surface of things. That goes
double when we travel. The great thing about being knocked out of our regular orbits, though, is we’re
a bit more awed. Things seem new, or at least unusual. It’s like taking 1/4 hit of acid. But we still don’t
really know. Penetration (the action or process of making a way through or into something, like this world,
for instance) is still the exception.

Here are some scenes from the drive to Whitby.

Last week I wanted to post some baby shots.

I was waiting for the okay from the client to post them here. Seems that the client is now on holiday (travel).
I’m gonna put up some other baby shots. Big baby.

These were shot at the Nat’l Gallery of Canada. The baby was made by Ron Mueck.
