Just go!
Posts have been few and far between for a number of different reasons, but quietly in the background, a trip to Paris has been planned! It’s getting very close to lift off, and I hope to have many pictures to share in the weeks to come. Everyone I’ve talked to about Paris seems to have…

Classic Canadiana
A glimpse of the Banff Springs Hotel (someday I’ll stay here, but a visit to the Rundle Lounge in the Hotel is the next best thing!) And further down the road, a sliver of beautiful Lake Louise…. Since this is the first of my favourite places I’ve visited (having camped in Banff as a little…

where would you go?
If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go? I’m getting the itch to plan a trip. Not sure where yet, but I would love to go back to New Orleans someday.

mountains of Banff
It was a hot, dry, summer in Western Canada, and as a result there were a lot of forest fires. Prior to our camping trip to Banff in August, it had been so smoky that the highway between Banff, and Radium, British Columbia had been closed. We camped for four days and had spectacular weather…

sunset is my favourite time of day
Three for three! This is the third year I’ve been to Elk Island National Park in the last five years on my annual camping trip with my parents. The sunsets here are beautiful. We stayed two nights this year – the first night it rained, and the second night, well, this was the view…. This…

Canada 150 – My Beautiful Country
Summer in Canada to me means going somewhere and seeing some of my beautiful country. Canada is such a wonderfully diverse country and I appreciate it all…prairies, mountains, ocean, and our cities, too. I’ve only been as far east as Quebec City, and would love to see the east coast of Canada someday. Summer Solstice,…

Canada 150 – Cypress Hills, Saskatchewan
When I was a kid, there were three places we’d drive to that I would look forward to with much anticipation. One was driving through Saskatoon on our way to my grandparents’ house. We’d drive by the beautiful University of Saskatchewan campus, and I’d imagine going to university there. I loved every second of my…

Canada 150 – Island Lake Lodge
Throughout this month, in honour of Canada’s 150th birthday on July 1, I’m going to share photos of some of the places I’ve visited in my beautiful country. You’ll find Island Lake Lodge up, up, up a long, winding road on the outskirts of Fernie, British Columbia. Beautiful scenery, delicious food, hiking trails for every…

Great Bear Rainforest
You only need sit still long enough in some attractive spot in the woods that all its inhabitants may exhibit themselves to you by turns. Henry David Thoreau In the case of these photos, the attractive spot was on the water, in a zodiac with six other people being as still and quiet as possible…

a bridge to watch the sunset
The pedestrian bridge over the North Saskatchewan River between Battleford and North Battleford has become one of my favourite places to photograph. If you’re ever in the area make sure to take in the sunset from the bridge. I’ve been visiting this area of Saskatchewan since birth, really, but it’s only in the last few…

up on the roof
Still have some Puerto Vallarta pics to share which is a good thing! Between being busy at work and figuring out how I’m going to handle my workload, and being uninspired by the April landscapes this year, I haven’t picked up a camera in awhile. The prospect of May flowers, though, will change that soon!…

the sky is my endless fascination
As in Maui in 2015, I don’t think I missed a sunset in Puerto Vallarta. The sky is my endless fascination. Most of the sunset pictures I took in Puerto Vallarta were from the rooftop pool. I don’t really have a bucket list, but I’ve always wanted to stay somewhere with a private pool. …a…
