Steampunk Horsefly


Losing It


Baby Stinkbug

This was the tiniest bug. I was taking a closeup of a nettle flower on my phone and when I zoomed in to check the focus I found him.

Crow

He just sat up on the peak of the roof and admired the view while we had a watermelon break. He's getting used to us. I suspect his wife is sitting on eggs and he felt the need to have some outside company. I would so like to get him to take food from my hand.

Winter in Alberta


A storm is setting in this morning. Nothing like the east coast has experienced but disappointing after the wonderful thaws we've been having.
I poked my head out to get a picture of it and was pleased to see the neighbour's deck chairs provide a pleasing contrast to all the grey and whiteness about.

March Sunset

Still as cold as winter but the colour of the sunshine says it's nearing spring.

Here Comes Winter!

Four thirty in the afternoon. Snowing hard but the flakes are just little. Northern Alberta. Oh boy.

That Golden Hour

We were driving out into the country last night, slightly late for a supper invitation, against the setting sun.  The photo ops were incredible and we had no time for more than a couple quick shots.  My daughter captured the sun in the sky and mirrored on the hood of the vehicle, and I only had time to capture the little grasses, each lit up and alight with the glow of the setting sun.

A Spot or Two of Colour


We don't get the intense autumn colours they do in Eastern Canada but occasionally there is a spot of red foliage for us to feast our eyes on. The leaves are falling fast but some hang on. Just to make lawn raking interesting.

if there were water...



On my Phone I have an app for reflections.  Kind of useless as far as I can see but it produces some pretty cool effects.

Gourds

Is summer really over unless there are pumpkins and zucchini to be had?
It seems strange to be on the receiving end of things like that but jere I am, and my friend Joanne brought me zucchini and delightfully warty gourds.

September Pouts

Nasty cold rainy September Sunday afternoon.  But I know September can be gloriously golden yellow and blue hot and happy.  I am waiting for it.
