Leica Ring: Tsai 35mm Summilux
Here is a photography related non-photography entry. My favourite lens is now immortalized permanently as a ring.

Some behind the scenes design process: it did involve photography with macro reproduction.
I first photographed the lens at varied angles to overcome cylindrical deformation. I then pieced together the artwork into a flat shape in photoshop before taking it into illustrator to vectorize, clean up, create the depth of field lines and compose the final art for the production file.
The ring is made by my talented and creative friend and fellow OCA classmate Shannon at Cynosure Jewelry Design Studio.

LUMAS toronto opening
in events
LUMAS, a gallery concept from Germany with the mission to make art accessible to everyone, opens the second location in Canada. The Blue Carpet set out on Yorkville Avenue opened the night introducing the LUMAS gallery to Toronto. The event featured SUITS actor and photographer Patrick J. Adams with an exclusive collection of his photographs. To add to the buzz, a selfie in front of LUMAS art in the space provides an opportunity for guests to receive a piece of limited edition cutwork puzzle that make up the Toronto cityscape art. You can see them on instagram with #LUMASCanada or @LUMAS_Canada.
