  • Geese in Flight

    Here’s one more shot of the geese in Wascana Park on Sunday afternoon…this one needed a bit of work as the Legislative Bldg was badly out of focus in the original…

  • Wascana Park Geese

    Of the 75 or so pictures I took of the geese in Wascana Park this afternoon, these are the only ones that somewhat turned out (and all of them are cropped to differing extents).  It was cold and holding the camera steady while reminding myself not to shiver, proved very challenging.  My index finger is…

  • Albert Street Bridge pillars

    The pillars on the Albert Street Bridge are likely my most photographed subject in Regina.  This one I took at about about 6pm tonight just might be my favourite.

  • anxiously awaiting the colours of spring and summer

    The sky is a brilliant blue today, and it’s a balmy -28 degrees (-38 with the windchill) and these Blue Rodeo lyrics (song is “Get Through To You”) are going through my head: Looks like winter’s never gonna leave this grey town I think it’s going to snow all summer Okay, I know winter will…

  • Things I do to distract myself while doing the dishes

    I don’t like doing dishes.  Tonight, while I was standing in the kitchen doing dishes, I happened to turn around and saw a pretty nice sunset developing outside my living room window.  So, I dried my hands, grabbed my cameras (I’m trying out a new one), opened my balcony door (it was about -16 at…

  • summer over winter

    As I’ve written before, I think Regina is quite a pretty city.  However, I much prefer it in this season… Than in this season… It is currently minus 32 degrees here.  Shudder.  The debate at work is would you rather have the massive amount of snow of the never-ending winter of 2013 or the mind-numbingly…

  • A Colourful Day in Regina

    Temperatures were above freezing here today for the first time in 2014 (at least I think it was the first time this year, it’s been a long winter!) and it was the Family Day holiday, so I spent the afternoon with my camera in my hands (which was also the first time I’ve taken any…

  • flowers for a Monday in January

    Just some flower pictures for a wintery Monday…

  • Grey Cup 101

    I had high hopes prior to last week that I would get some spectacular photos during Grey Cup Festival events and at the game itself.  Alas, I have excuses why I didn’t accomplish that goal! It was cold outside. Really cold.  (Although, perhaps that’s not really a good excuse because I did take pictures at…

  • Saturday Night Sunset

    I was making supper on Saturday night and happened to look out the window and this is what I saw….so of course I turned down the burner on the stove, and went out and stood on my balcony (bare feet on cold concrete is a little chilly) to get a few pictures. This repeated itself…

  • a walk in the park

    “All truly great thoughts are conceived while walking.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols A few more colourful shots from my Thanksgiving morning walk in the park…

  • Thanksgiving Day Morning Walk

    I went for a walk this morning with the intention of finally getting some fall pictures and was happy to discover a beautiful maple tree I’ve never noticed before behind Darke Hall at the University of Regina’s College Avenue Campus…
