Pipe*Pics by Pole*pics !!!
Jul 7th
If I’d said to you earlier today that you’d be spending some time looking at my photos of pipes, you’d have thought I was crazy. And for good reason, most pipe photos are really destined for places only people that have a keen interest in controlling the flow of things go…

Lighting is just as critical for property as it is with portraits of people. With studio photography the photographer has complete control over the light, however with outdoor subjects – especially buildings and landscapes – one generally has to wait for the sun to be in the right spot.

Antique Look Aerial Image from the Polepics Mast
Earlier this year I took Polepics to a Wedding Fair event at The Crystal Palace, Picton to produce images for the Parks and Recreations promotional team.

However stories need images and so here it is – if its accepted into the 2010 Art in The County then you can experience it there.

I’m sure most of us find shopping malls, sports arenas and other public buildings more exciting, but at just over $25million, the brand new Wastewater treatment and Pollution Control facility currently being constructed in Picton, is by far the biggest capital project in Prince Edward County, Ontario.
