  • a Saskatchewan sunset

    Whether it’s an ocean, mountain or prairie view (or from my balcony), I love taking sunset pictures.  Here’s one from the other night in the Battlefords River Valley and a view of the Battlefords Goose Project…

  • Mount Norquay and the Bow River

    I’m excited to upload my pictures tomorrow and see how they turned out…but here’s one more iPhone pic from a few days ago.

  • reflection

    At this time last year, I was anticipating my trip to the Great Bear Rainforest in northern BC.  I had lots of conflicting thoughts – did I make the right decision in choosing this trip to celebrate a momentous birthday?  I wanted to do something outside my comfort zone, but at the same time, why…

  • side of the road

    Some lyrics from one of my favourite songs, “Side of the Road” by one of my favourite bands, Blue Rodeo…and because the pictures remind me of my summer job in university spent walking through farmers’ fields doing a corrosion survey of a pipeline. I remember one particular moment very clearly. I was done walking my…

  • Sunset Walk

    I’ve been experimenting in Photoshop lately, and these photos are the ones I’m willing to share…so far!  These are from a walk around Wascana Park in early October where the reward at the end of the walk was a beautiful sky at sunset.

  • Road Trippin’ 2014

    I’m in the midst of planning a road trip for late spring along the West Coast of the US ending up in Wine Country…of course!  I always take pictures from the car and here’s a sampling of my road collection….

  • Taking A Moment

    The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself. ― Henry Miller These are two of my favourite pictures from my trip to the Great Bear Rainforest last June. I’ve posted them before, but these jumped out at me again when I…

  • Taking A Chance

    This is one of my favourite pictures I’ve taken this year… (but it almost didn’t happen)… My birthday this year was a significant one.  I wanted to mark the occasion by doing something I’d never done before and by going somewhere I’d never been before. But, once I booked the trip with Ocean Adventures to…

  • Photography Lessons – Patience and Persistence

    I’ve learned a lot of photography lessons this summer.  The first two are patience and persistence.  These occurred many times on my trip to the Great Bear Rainforest in mid-June with Ocean Adventures. The most memorable one was when we were on the zodiac for six hours one afternoon. We had a very hearty lunch…

  • The Road Not Taken

    I realized as I was going through my photo library today that I like to take pictures of roads. One of my favourite poems is The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost. So, today’s post is a combination of two of my favourite things (and yes, the last picture is not of a road, but…

  • like being in another world

    I’m back to posting pics from my trip to the Great Bear Rainforest off the coast of Northern British Columbia.  This was my favourite morning of the trip (and actually the last morning of the trip as we were heading back to Hartley Bay to catch the seaplane back to Prince Rupert and then on…

  • My Saskatchewan

    Today is Saskatchewan Day (which means it’s a long weekend here) so I thought I’d share a few pictures I’ve taken in the last few weeks, including some of my favourite places in Saskatchewan.
