Looking up at tree at night, Montreal

The Gloaming

June 5, 2014 by ebembo

I’m a big fan of Sofia Coppola. Her films are so atmospheric.  Her first feature-length film, The Virgin Suicides, has such a hazy aura; you can almost feel the humidity. What adds to the film’s uneasy ambience is the soundtrack by Air. When I see stills from the film, I can already hear the opening lonely piano notes of “Playground Love” in my mind. Virgin Suicides was one of the first films that made me realize that certain lasting images […]

Osheaga Playlist 2014

March 11, 2014 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Three fans mourn the end of Metric’s set while The Black Keys rock out 50ft to their left. As Canadians outside Montreal are becoming increasingly aware, for the August long-weekend there is nowhere else to be but Parc Jean-Drapeau. Starting the year before I moved to Montreal in 2006, the Osheaga Festival Musique et Arts has really exploded in the last few years, reaching 135,000 attendees in 2013 (apparently 70% from outside Québec)- practically busting out into the Saint Lawrence […]

The Secret Life of Vappz

January 21, 2014 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Sunrise, Tulum, Mexico Have you seen The Secret Life of Walter Mitty? I recommend it. I believe it was written for me and a handful of my friends: travel, photography and music are the films three great strengths. My secret life is not-so-secret to those of you who follow Snapshots. I have been very fortunate with travel opportunities, which is reflected in my photography. What is more of a secret is what I manage to get up to between snapping […]

The Whole Wide World is Whistling

January 14, 2014 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Kingscote Pier, Kangaroo Island, South Australia One of the absolute greatest weeks of this fabulous past year was the time I spent on Kangaroo Island with my friend Matt. Our days were jam-packed with adventure and our stupid, incredibly nerdy, humour. I took this photo within our first hour of arriving. We drove straight to the pier at sunset, walked right up to some pelicans, took a few pics, spotted a stingray, had beers with this fisherman and played with […]
