April Fools! Yes, it was quite the wintry day in Hanover on April 1st this year. And there on Marl Lake was a lovely pair of swans, heedless of the…
Yes, there are many reasons to be thrilled to live here. But right at the top of the list I would include our opportunities to enjoy spectacular sunsets. I and…
With the return of the bitter cold winds today, I felt that a little warmth would be welcome. Here you might catch some from the sunny petals.
Yes, she is a beauty, and I was very happy to see her as an Honourable Mention on the screen.
I took the icy plunge and submitted my first three photos to the Camera Club I’ve just joined. They call it a Challenge in the Expressions category, so I happily accepted…
Perhaps this delicate dragonfly will remind us of warmer days — pleasantly comfortable October mornings when the temps were not in the minus 30 degrees Celsius.
Here in the East we’ve been truly blessed with good weather that allowed us to visit our loved ones and embrace the holiday spirit together. Now it’s time to safely…
And the geese are trying to stay warm. In fact, they look more like ducks as they huddle into their feathers in this icy cold water. Off to the top…
During our walk through the forest last week, we built this inuksuk, and a few others to keep her company. (In case you were not aware of it, this is…
Under the bridge, not far from a watery grave, this two-wheeler knows its cycling days are over. Such a waste! This metal could be re-cycled.
The mirror on my garage door shows off Mother Nature’s talents in painting. And at this time of the year, the canvas changes almost every day. Here our favourite artist competes with the…
They have booked their passage on the gentle winds and are dressed for the journey in their finest silks. Bon voyage!
I thought they had packed away their colourful finery for another year, but today, November 18th, there they were, still flaunting their delicate beauty. Amazing and mesmerizing. And I cannot…
Let’s face it! We are never really ready for snow storms. And we could certainly do without all that nonsense these seasonal tempests insist on bringing with them! But, ready or not, we…
Once again we’re at that time of the year when squirrels are squirreling away their goodies, and homeowners are stacking their wood. Actually, in this case, the wood-burners might be…
Yes, I am back to work for a while. I’m also back to my old routine of getting out of bed between 5 and 5:30, and out of the house…
Thinking of one of my favourite cities and remembering my many visits to Times Square. This photo was taken during a school trip with my secondary 5 students. Wow! More…
Yes, Katherine, this is the duck we can use when we want to scrape the mud off our boots. You see, his back is all bristly to clean off the…
Visiting Grandma means having a bath in her big tub. And Katie loves every minute of it. Grandma obviously gets a kick out of it too. 🙂
I didn’t want her, but allowed her to stay. Then I tolerated her. Now I know why: she’s gorgeous in the fall.
For a while. And for a different view. I have said it before: In life, as in photography, perspective is everything.
She is always there — day after day, and year after year, lying and waiting to greet me as I pass by. Posing, maybe, for photo number 60 or 75? Who knows how…
When the milkweed pods open in the fall I enjoy my walks even more than usual. I am so drawn to these gentle flying seeds that I want to film…
The flowers were very real and they looked lovely straight from my Lumix, but for the fun of it, I decided to try something new that I had read about only this…
Yes, I find they speak to me. And in a very rich language, full of texture and colour. They whisper their history and echo their almost-forgotten dreams to all who…
My beautiful living fossil is quite golden this time of the year.
As silhouettes go, I think this is a great one! Some might even be tempted to call this lumberjack-of-all-trades a Poster Man!
Those of you who don’t know the meaning of synesthesia can see a perfect example in today’s post. In this photo, the visual stimulation is “loud” and “noisy” as if…
This brave soul was the only orange root to germinate and survive in my garden this summer. Why? I don’t know. But with no carrot friends or enemies, she stood…
At first sight of this scene on our drive home last week, I gasped with joy. We had to do a U-turn on the highway and drive back so I…
Same forest; same shoe. Different day; different perspective. At eight degrees Fahrenheit, this one is slowly but surely becoming a cold case.
I saw no wildlife in the bay today, but these muted fall colours on the water gave me reason to pause and join in their reflection.
Yes, I choose to believe that she lived a good life. Now she will go on to please others with her warmth.
When there are two full moons in a calendar month, we call the second one a blue moon. See here for more information: http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/when-is-the-next-blue-moon
Such unpretentious charm and beauty! It totally melts her grandmother’s heart.
Yes, I may be looking at you from a distance, but the glow is still there. Saint Nom de Marie, I have a warm place in my heart for you.…
At nine months old, Katherine loved to sit in the grass and sing. It was a delight to watch her.
After a lovely time at PSNM during their Open House, and a wonderful visit with many of my former colleagues, it is now time to put my feet up, wrap a blanket…
Oh how I love swiss chard! And not only its taste. It is also beautiful to look at and to touch. Hopefully, the farmer’s market still has some for me.
One of my favourite graffiti scenes, which unfortunately is no longer there.
What a place to relax and take it easy. The sights, the sounds, the smell of fresh air! Yes, it does have an impact on one’s frame of mind.
Frolicking in my forest is one of my favourite activities, and I always have my camera with me — just in case. Well, this is what I found on this…
Yes, this lovely 11-inch-diameter specimen was in the forest just up the street from my door — just waiting for me to salvage. You see, last fall I saw a…
It was such a delight to witness this! You can imagine how thrilled I was to capture it on my Lumix.
When windshield wipers refuse to work, good neighbours often lend a helping hand. Thank you, Bruce.
This is one of my earlier photos, taken over seven years ago. But it is still one of my favourites because of the warmth of the glow.
They are such hard workers and always seem so happy. Hi Ho, Hi Ho, …. They could be compared to the Seven Dwarfs who whistle while they work.
Both birds and men take advantage of good fishing weather. Here they are on the Baie de Vaudreuil on a foggy November morning.
One pair for my man and one pair for my granddaughter.
