"I hope that the photos presented here depict a Winnipeg that often goes unseen and unnoticed; a multi-layered, architecturally rich city that is more than just the snow and mosquitoes for which it is (sadly) most well-known." - Bryan Scott
He was kind enough to answer some questions I rattled off to him yesterday. Thanks.LAM: Where did you study Graphic Design?
Bryan: Red River Collegiate.
LAM: When did you start WinnipegLoveHate.com?
Bryan: February 2008.
LAM: What kind of readership has the site obtained?
Bryan: More than I ever expected...
LAM: What is your favourite image you have taken to date?
Bryan: Impossible to say.
LAM: First site you remember photographing?
Bryan: Also impossible to say for sure. If my memory severs me correct, however, the first time I really went out of my way to photograph a Winnipeg scene, it was Portage and Main at night. That was many years ago.
LAM: Best part of Winnipeg?
Bryan: Downtown.
LAM: Worst part of Winnipeg?
Bryan: Bigbox retail centres like those on Kenaston and Regent.
LAM: Setup?
Bryan: I shoot with a Pentax K10, and a variety of lenses (Sigma 17-70, Pentax 50, Pentax 28-200).
Bryan's use of HDR technology allows for some of the most captivating photographs that has turned even the mundane locations and buildings of Winnipeg into breath taking compositions.
