  • animal therapy

    animal therapy

    For when you have a week that needs a little cute animal therapy to get you through it! And my favourite animal picture I’ve ever taken….just look at that face.  The Great Bear Rainforest in British Columbia is beautiful in so many different ways, but to get this close to a bear who trusted that…

    small creatures in a big world (part 2)

    Some of nature’s most exquisite handiwork is on a miniature scale, as anyone knows who has applied a magnifying glass to a snowflake. ~Rachel Carson To go with my post from a few weeks ago, here are a few more shots of nature’s smaller creatures I’ve captured over the years:   And one last not…

  • Waskesiu Sunset

    Waskesiu Sunset

    If I had to choose my favourite subject to photograph, my answer may change depending on the day you ask me or what I thought were my most recent best photos….flowers, animals, landscapes and sunsets are all tops on the list. So, today, let’s say sunsets are my favourite, because how can anyone get tired…

  • Island Lake Lodge

    Island Lake Lodge

    I enjoy planning trips – I like doing the research just as much as actually going on the trip.  Usually the trips are planned well in advance, but this one was planned with about two weeks notice – a look at work schedules and a desire to get out of the city for a few…

    While I put together a longer post with pictures of a place that according to their website National Geographic Traveler Magazine called one of the most unique and authentic places to stay in Canada, here’s a pic I snapped of a little creature lucky enough to call that part of the world of the home. …

    I took my camera out of my purse quite often this week…here’s a smattering of what caught my eye…

    remnants of rain

    Pretty crystals everywhere after the rain the other day…I don’t think it’s ever been as lush and green here as it is now…    

  • Going, going, gone…

    Going, going, gone…

    Watching the sunset over the North Saskatchewan River from the Battleford Bridge, late June.  Just might have become one of my favourite spots in Saskatchewan to watch the setting sun. Lucky for me, I know some people who live close by!

  • Prince Albert National Park Sunset

    Prince Albert National Park Sunset

    Waskesiu Lake sunset at Prince Albert National Park….my favourite part of camping in the park was listening to the sounds of loons calling in the distance.  If you look at this picture long enough, you just might be able to hear their distinctive and haunting song. Made me think of how many National Parks I’ve…

    Summertime is the best time

    Three of my favourite sunset pictures from last year’s summer adventure….I’m on vacation again soon, so won’t be posting anything for a couple of weeks.  Hope to have some summer in Saskatchewan photos to share when I get back!
