A Year in Pictures – Short Version

I was given the opportunity to do a short (5 minute) presentation about my business today at the Calgary Professional Business Owners & Managers Meetup Group that I attend regularly, and I decided to use a fusion video slideshow of images to show off some of my favorite work from the past year. Some of you may remember another video slideshow that I showed here a couple of months ago entitled "A Year in Pictures". I was very happy with that presentation but the slideshow itself was over 5 minutes long, and so I had to cut it down. I'm calling this the short version of "A Year in Pictures" because it includes many of the images that I used in the longer one, but the total length of the slideshow is now just under 2 minutes. Using this version for my presentation today allowed me to talk about my Calgary Photography business while also showing just enough images to give the group a good overview of the type of photography that I'm capable of creating and interested in doing.

Voting Day

Today is the federal election day in Canada and it's really important that you get out and vote! Did you know that only 40-50% of eligible Canadians vote? Let's change that this time around. This is a very important election and your vote matters! You do not need a Voter Information Card. If you go to Elections Canada On-line, you can register and find your polling station. You can also bring proof of your identity to the poll. Polling stations close at 7:30 PM tonight, but anyone in line prior to 7:30 will get to vote...
