  • Hope

    When I went grocery shopping the other day I picked up some lettuce and spinach seeds. It finally is starting to feel like spring (although there is snow in the forecast for tomorrow) and just having the seeds in my possession is giving me hope that, yes, maybe this never-ending winter will actually end. So,…

  • garden mums in January

    I usually don’t post twice in one day, but I liked these garden mum pics.  The mums bloomed into October and then it snowed and I never got around to cleaning out the pots.  Surprisingly, they don’t look too bad, so I’ll leave them for the rest of the winter.  I took the frosty pic…

  • colours of fall

    These are mostly pictures I took this morning. I went for a walk, not really planning what I wanted to take pictures of and found a tree with brilliant red leaves. That inspired me to try to get enough pictures to do a “colours of fall” post.  When you really look at your surroundings, beauty…

  • petunias

    Brrr….there was a bit of snow here this morning.  It melted as soon as it hit the ground… I really don’t mind snow… but it’s too early! I still haven’t gotten around to cleaning up all my flowers (although the garden mum still looks great) and took these petunia pictures early last week. I played…

  • ladybug trilogy

    I came across this ladybug when I was tidying up the flowers on my balcony and thought it would be good practice to try to take some pictures of it.  

  • morning walk

    morning walk

    It’s another beautiful Saturday in Regina – the sun is shining and the air is crisp – quite appropriate for the first day of Fall.  The temperature fell below zero overnight so I wanted to get a few flower pictures this morning before it’s too late, and I also took a few more pictures around…

  • neighbourhood walk

    It’s a beautiful day here so I decided to take my camera with me when I walked to the Canada Post outlet at Shoppers Drug Mart to pick up a parcel this morning.  I’m a fast walker, but today I decided to amble along and really  look around as I walked.  I enjoyed my morning…

  • flowers

    It’s been a really nice summer here this year – lots of sunshine and heat (although I’m not sure I like the really hot days as much as I used to).  The forecast is for a warm September so I hopefully I can make my flowers last a little longer, although the heat and wind…

  • “Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.”

    “Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.” John Lennon I love watching the phases of the moon and I think it’s so awesome that I’m able to get so close with my new camera (Nikon p510)  Earlier in the week, I was able to get some good shots…

  • lighting

    A couple pics from this weekend – I’ve been trying to take pictures of the cobweb and the geraniums for awhile and finally got the shots I wanted.

  • dahlias three ways

    Did you know that dahlias are the national flower of Mexico? I don’t remember seeing any dahlias in Puerto Vallarta in March, but then again I don’t think I took any flower pictures there.  It was more about eating good food, sticking my toes in the sand and taking sunset pictures. Summer is still in…

  • a beautiful summer weekend

    The weather was perfect this weekend.  It was cooler at the beginning of the week and I wore long pants to work and even uttered the word fall a few times, but thank goodness summer has returned.  These are a few pics from this weekend – a good portion of which was spent outside –…
