sunflowers on a Saturday afternoon
Is there a more cheerier flower than a sunflower? I don’t think so. I took these pictures a few weeks ago on a very hot Saturday afternoon from a gravel road between two fields near Pangman, Saskatchewan (south of Regina). The wind was blowing, so I had to sometimes hold the stems with one hand,…

I loved this wildflower meadow…these yellow flowers just look happy.

Chocolate Lilies
Many of the inlets we visited were full of beautiful wild flowers, some of which I’d never seen before…like the chocolate lily.

My Great Bear Rainforest Adventure – Part 2
The seaplane trip from Prince Rupert to Hartley Bay was 45 minutes – I’m generally not prone to motion sickness but we hit a few air pockets that had my stomach in my mouth, but I managed to pull it together and continue taking pictures from the plane. I can’t say I loved the seaplane…

Build Me Up Buttercup
…and just like that we are into Spring, actually Summer-like, temperatures. It’s been a beautiful few days here and suddenly the never-ending winter is a thing of the past. We melted at work today and are hopeful tomorrow will be a bit cooler inside (I’m definitely not complaining about the outside temperature!) otherwise we may…

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…

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.

sick day
I have a cold. It’s your regular, run of the mill cold – itchy watery eyes, runny nose, aches, pains and fever and no energy. I’m feeling pretty miserable right now. To make matters worse I can’t sleep because new windows are getting installed on the floor below me so there has been some sawing…

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…
