  • clouds in nice light in Banff

    A similar pic to the last one I posted of clouds from Sulphur Mountain in Banff, but I liked the light so much I wanted to share another one.

  • clouds from Sulphur Mountain

    I took a lot of cloud pictures in Banff, this one is the view from Sulphur Mountain.

  • 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…

  • It’s Always Getting Better

    It was nice enough tonight to stand outside on my balcony without a jacket to take a few pics of the clouds I noticed while I was making supper.   Considering that the last time I saw something out my window I wanted to take pics of, I had to stand inside with the door…

  • March is a weird month

    March is that weird month when the sidewalks are treacherously icy on the morning walk to work and on the walk home you have to avoid all the puddles and slush. You don’t dare stand or walk on the edge of the sidewalk unless you take pleasure in getting soaked by passing cars.  It’s not…

  • 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…

  • 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.

  • Moon shots from my balcony

    I wish I could say that these are recent shots because then it would mean it was actually warm enough to hang out on my balcony!  These are from last May when I set up my tripod and spent about an hour watching the sun go down, revealing a crescent moon.  I’ve said it before,…

  • home

    I like to travel, but home is my favourite place. I love my balcony…in any season, the view usually doesn’t disappoint. It will be a few months before I can sit outside with a cup of coffee, though, and that’s disappointing. Why do I live where I live, again? (I think most prairie folks start…

  • 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 around Wascana Lake

    For a flat prairie city, plunked in the middle of nowhere, Regina is actually a very pretty city. When I moved here many years ago I certainly didn’t think it was, and didn’t plan to stay very long, but this is my home now. Wascana Park is one of my favourite places in Regina.  I…
