Then and Now on Dufferin Terrace
I haven’t been back to Canada in many years but 2009 was my first visit there and we stayed near Quebec and took a tour of the city on a wet and cloudy autumn day.
Riding the Santa Cruz Swell
More than a decade ago, I spent some time in Santa Cruz along with the rest of Automattic for the Grand Meetup that year. I’ve already posted a few sunrise photos on the beach, but these photos of surfers riding the waves have been in my TODO folder for a long time.
Lulu the VW Bus
In 2019, Lulu was this beautiful blue VW bus and was a photo studio on the final night of the Automattic Grand Meetup in Florida that year.

An empty street in Seaside
This is something you won’t see often in The Truman Show, it’s an empty street. It’s not the same road as the one with the traffic jam in the movie, but it’s similar. It’s surreal walking around the town of Seaside in Florida after seeing The Truman Show.

Epcot Theme Park Fireworks
Fireworks at the Epcot Theme Park in Orlando in 2018 when Automattic hired out the place for a few amazing hours.
A Florida Dragonfly
Behind the town of Seaside in Florida lies a lake which no doubt contributes to the humidity during the day there. Early one morning I photographed this dragonfly resting on the fence on a small pier on the lake. The air was still cool, so the dragonfly was probably still sluggish until the day warmed…
Capturing Seaside’s Sunrise Splendor
In Seaside, Florida, a photowalk in September is best enjoyed in the early morning to avoid the oppressive humidity and heat that sets in later in the day. But the silver lining is that this early start allows us to witness the breathtaking sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico, casting a golden glow on the…
The Dog’s Nose Knows
A dog pokes his nose out of a caravan in Santa Cruz. I think he wanted to come play with us as we walked past.
