  • ways of dealing with things…

    You could be stoic… You could just let it all out… Or just be cute and hope someone helps you out… Just hang out and watch the world go by… Eat! Or just have a nice long nap… It’s your choice!  

  • Kaanapali Beach Reminiscing

    I’ve collected quotes for as long as I can remember, and this is one of my favourites.  (I came across it again the other day and thought I’d share it with some of my favourite pictures from Kaanapali Beach in March – watching the sunset every night was my favourite part of the trip). “The…

  • Elk Island National Park (Astotin Lake Sunset)

    Just a picture I thought I posted earlier in the summer.  It’s been a busy summer where other things have taken precedence over photography, so I don’t have a lot of new pictures to post.  When I have had the time and the inclination, the sky has been a smoky haze from forest fires. There…

  • Angel’s Trumpet

    When I pick out my flowers in the spring, I like to choose a few I’ve never planted before or ones I don’t plant every year…this year’s pick was Angel’s Trumpet.  It’s very easy to grow, but when I looked up more information on it after I bought it, I discovered it’s actually highly toxic…

  • under a Saskatchewan Sky

    In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary                                                                                        -Aaron Rose Normally, the trip between Saskatoon and Regina is pretty boring.  (Or maybe, it’s not actually that bad, I’ve just been back and forth on that road too many times).  After an eventful weekend, and a strong desire to just get home,…

  • One of those lazy, hazy, heatwave days

    Heatwave!  If you live pretty much anywhere in Saskatchewan this week and find yourself away from an air-conditioned environment, you’ll be searching for a tree to at least get out of the sun. Hard to escape the sweat, though, factoring in the humidex, it will be +40 here tomorrow!

  • Sunday in the park

    Beautiful day for a picnic in Wascana Park…   

  • storm clouds on the prairies

    Wednesday afternoon near Shaunavon, SK after crossing the border back into Canada after a quick road trip to Glacier National Park in Montana… There are many things to like about Montana, and I will include my thoughts and photos in a post in the near future, but this is actually my favourite picture from the…

  • a country drive

    Pictures from last Saturday morning’s drive in the country… the goal was to take pictures of the St. Nicholas Anglican Church near Craven in the Qu’Appelle Valley and see what else we could find along the way (like the donkeys in my last post!).  Off to Montana tomorrow where it’s going to be hot, hot,…

  • Donkey close-ups on a Saturday morning

    I’ve likely said it previously, but animals have become my favourite subject matter to photograph. Saturday’s plan was take pictures of a little church on the prairies near Regina that I spotted last year, but the road to get to it had been washed out. After successfully finding the church, and enjoying the peacefulness of…

  • Monday Quotes

    Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them – that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.  – Lao Tzu The prairie skies can always make you see more than what you believe. ― Jackson Burnett, The Past Never Ends

  • football players have the nicest arms

    This is a bit of a silly post, but it’s summer, it’s hot outside, and I’ve been busy at work, so a little fun is in order.  The Roughriders may be 0 and 3 to start the season and the crowd at tomorrow night’s game (night games are my favourite) could get even more rowdy…
