About the Photographer:
Photo by Chris Jackson
My name is Christopher Jackson. I was born and raised in Halifax and have lived here all my life. My involvement with photography goes back to the early 1980s when I got my first camera, a simple point and shoot Kodak my father got me through a Cheerios promotion. With that camera, I captured landscapes from the Public Gardens, Point Pleasant Park, pics of our dogs at the time (Ginger and Kelsi) sunsets and scenes from our vacations in PEI and elsewhere. I used that camera until I got a Bell & Howell that my father, who enjoyed photography himself, bought me in early 2003 and used it until he passed away on July 4th, 2005. I didn't take another picture until I purchased my first digital camera, a Canon A530 in August 2006, and so began my journey with digital photography. Since that first camera, I 've had a Canon G10 and a Canon Rebel 350D ES, which I recently sold in favor of my new Nikon P500 digital camera, which is my camera of choice now.
I joined Veith Street Gallery in the fall of 2007, becoming a member of their Creative Spirit East collective. I enjoy photographing/creating abstracts using everyday objects around me and using manipulation techniques with some of my early abstract pictures.
I participated in 2011's "Photopolis" festival in an exhibit called "Seeing the Eyes through Different Worlds" which ran from October 1st to 31st,where I showcased some of my most unique and mind blowing abstracts. I will be particpating in this year's Photopolis exhibit at Veith Street Gallery, called "Fall In" with some of my fall-like images on display from October 9th to 30th.
I am now the co-ordinator of a photography club consisting of CSE members and this is the place you'll find the photography I've taken at photo shoots we have in between and as part of photo themes for the Creative Spirit East Photographers (formerly CSE Shutterbugs) club.
