untitled - eats -
A great new restaurant opened at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. Designed by my friend Ian Greig who normally works as a set decorator in film and tv. Ian did a great job incorporating local talent in his design. The lamp shades were weaved from ash by a Mi'kmaq Chief in Bear River. The bar was cut from a Nova Scotia quarry. The same quarry that provided the materials for the Art Gallery building which was built in 1865. The chairs were built in an old Yarmouth chair factory.
The place looks great and the food is good too!

Just back from Havana. More photos to come soon!
Our friend Tito who, (above, far right), lives in the building where this group was photographed, made the cover of AFAR Magazine in January 2012. See Tito's cover below. He was thrilled when I arrived with a copy of the magazine for him.

Pimp My Ride - Canon 5Dmk2 video ready
Canon 5Dmk11 with a Sennheiser MKE400 shotgun mic, a Zacuto Z-finder on the lcd screen for focusing, a Cinevate focus puller and its all sitting on a Gorilla Focus set of legs that I bought for travelling, which doubles very nicely as a quick and inexpensive shoulder rig for stability shooting hand held.
This is pretty much the bare minimum for shooting video with a 5D2. Can't wait to start shooting with my fast Canon prime lenses! That is the beauty of 5D2 video, fast prime lenses.
