A Beautiful September Evening

A Beautiful September Evening

Last September (I simply cannot believe it has been a year already!!) we went for a drive in and around Elk Island NP one lovely evening. We were lucky to encounter some bison as well as a few other animals, but the best part was watching all the colors being displayed in gorgeous sunshine. It is always such a feast for one’s eyes! It’s almost, as if Mother Nature gave us the beautiful colors to enjoy before it is all gone, in preparation for the monochrome of winter. Here is a selection of shots from that outing. Enjoy!

Macro in Yellow

Macro in Yellow

Yellow is another color that requires extra special attention while in post processing. It is not always easy to photograph it either. I have been enjoying the challenge of taking pictures of yellow flowers for yearn now. What I find really pleasing is the effect. Always cheerful and happy!

Wishing you all a very happy day!

September Rockies

September Rockies

Visiting Calgary gives us an opportunity for a short trip to the Rockies. If we have a few hours and the weather is cooperating, we often take our cameras and go out and explore. After all, it’s only a little over an hour drive from the city. Last September (I can’t believe it has almost been a year, already!), we have managed one such trip. It was great to escape to the wilderness and go for an adventure. It was a bit too early in the season for the fall colors but some of the trees and shrubs were already turning yellow and orange, giving a great contrast to the heavy clouds in the sky. Here are a few images I have taken during that outing. Enjoy!

In My Garden

In My Garden

It has been a very long time since I have indulged in posting my macros. Not that I don’t create them. On the contrary, I have been shooting mostly macros recently. They are so good for the soul, especially when I have no time or opportunity to go outside the city. This summer, it is even more of a thing. I have been taking advantage of my patio garden and shooting the flowers very often. I have been lucky enough to be able to spend time with my camera in the mornings and use the, sometimes rare, sunshine. So here it is, this years patio garden. Enjoy!

August in Elk Island

August in Elk Island

Summer of 2019 was difficult, photographically speaking. Not only we were both busy with our jobs, but when we had time to venture outside the city the weather did not cooperate. Rainy summer made for beautifully green countryside, though. Where, usually, buy the end of August we had tired looking trees and burned our grass everywhere, this year all that was not in evidence. Thus it was a great pleasure to go out, one evening and take a short trip to Elk Island. Here is a few shots from that trip. This time of year, it is with a lot of pleasure that I look at them and enjoy memories of colorful world and warmer days. I hope you feel that same way 😀
