Just found this new technique, (well, at least new to me) call NIR, for the creation of “pseudo” infrared images. A pretty cool process.

I love the touch of “unrealism” this brings.

Val is now 19, approaching 20, kind of being between 2 worlds: College and University.

The immediate consequence is that she no longer plays soccer and we dearly miss seeing our daughter in action. She plays hard, giving all her heart on each shift.

We really miss that. These images were taken on the last game we assisted. We sincerely hope it was not the last…

I miss seeing Val playing soccer...

The fable of The fence eating tree…

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Humour, Photography, Val, iPhone

Once upon a time, a fence was installed close to a teenage tree.

The tree told the fence, sorry my dear, if you don’t move I’ll have to eat you!

There is no offence said the fence.

What had to happened, well, happened…

Morality: If you want to feed your tree with a fence, please use a metal one, they are easier to digest for the poor thing.

Incredible!

Yesterday as I was shooting for birds with my camera, in the municipality of Notre-Dame-de-l’Ile-Perrot, west of Montreal, I witnessed the abduction of 2 girls by alien beings.

I heard a strange noise and my dog in total fear ran away in the woods. I turned, looking for the source of the noise, when I was struck by a purple beam of ray, I felt cold and that left me paralyzed from waist to toes. Still, I was able to take images of the frightening scene.

Tree bizarre faceless aliens were running in the field carrying 2 young girls. What seemed to be a disk shape vessel appeared suddenly in the sky in landed a few yards away.

A kind of door opened in the side of the disk, the humanoids creatures and their victims embarked the strange ship which took off shortly after.

The whole scene only took a few seconds. After a while, shaken, I regained the use of my legs.

My dog is still in the woods.

And suddenly I felt the need for a good glass of bourbon…

Ladies abducted by aliens!

For many years, our pretty Val played soccer with an unequal passion. She is 19 now and every week, all year round, she trains 2 to 3 times and play 1 to 2 games.

For a couple months now, she had develop an leg injury, both legs. Before each game one of the coach has to strap them with metal bars.

For sure as parents (and her doctor to), we would like her to take a good break. Since she is an adult now, we have no control over that.

And she is not the only one in her team playing with an injury.

She plays hard and she is a good player to watch.

What is the feminine translation for the word “macho”?

I was not supposed to publish this image due to the vulgarity of the gesture (it is called a “schocker” please consult an teenager near you for more explanation), at the same time I found something about the expression, a cross between “I don’t care” and a bit of provocation.

Since I like expression that are out of the ordinary…

It is shocking!

Chapka

   Posted by: fmeehan   in Kids, Photography, Val, familly & Friends, people, portrait

Val received a nice gift for her birthday, a superb Chapka hat (sorry could not find an english hyperlink for it), hand made, a creation of Madame Michelle Gendron from Rigaud.

Of course, a photo session was in order, we went at the “Pointe-du-Moulin” (Ile-Perrot), very pleasant as usual even if we came back we both our feet wet…
