Dear Reader (2019-12-29), Initially ( Foggy Experiment ) , I had conceived of today’s post as 2 separate ones. Instead today is composed of the last 2 of 3 sets from the drive to Two Jack Lake. Set 1 is here. Set 2, below, is … Continue readingOut To Breakfast
Dear Reader (2019-12-27), Before the interludes (previous 2 posts), I mentioned in Foggy Experiment that there would be a collection called Out to Breakfast. This is the first post in that collection. Keith and I drove out to Two Jack Lake last week for a … Continue readingBack to Breakfast
Dear Reader (2019-12-26), I hope you are having a wonderful week. In my delusions, I like to think you enjoyed the Christmas Eve Interlude, and said to yourself “I like that – I wonder if there are more like it”. How nice of you ask. … Continue readingMore Interlude
Dear Reader (2019-12-24), I hope you and those near and dear to you have a very Merry Christmas. Thank you ever so much for being a reader, a viewer, a commentator, an audience. Near Mallard Point of Fish Creek Park – captured 2019-12-23; size approx. … Continue readingInterlude
Dear Reader (2019-12-23), I was speaking with one of my readers yesterday. She really liked the red chairs and also thought that the silo image taken from a mid-distance (Leighton-3) would be stronger without the visual clutter on the right side. Comments in any medium … Continue readingOut To Pasture – II
Dear Reader (2019-12-22), In response to yesterday’s post (Foggy Experiment), Keith asked further questions about how the smoke behaves. The fog rises and therefore one has limited time to work with it. Eventually, as I hope was visible in yesterday’s sequence, the room fills with … Continue readingOut to Pasture – I
Dear Reader (2019-12-21), There have been any number of photographic journeys over the past 2 weeks or so, and unfortunate technical issues with this web-site. I believe those issues have been resolved (too much work on my part) . Please let me know if you … Continue readingFoggy Experiment
Dear Reader (2019-12-08),(Reposted on 2019-12-09 due site to site issues) The major project for this year was to complete a studio space. The space was finished nearly two weeks ago, and I spent 3 days trying to photograph a shirt. Now this is no ordinary … Continue readingOven Now Reserved for Cookies
Dear Reader (2019-12-07), Last Sunday (Dec. 1), Keith and I wandered along some of the paths at the Ann & Sandy Cross Conservation Area. His image collection from that walk can be found here. My images were banal and uninteresting, until I started playing in … Continue readingTwice Baked But Still Half
Dear Reader (2019-12-06), Today the walk along 17th continues. But, we have a problem. There were not enough of any of the following explorations to make a complete post. Instead you get a cornucopia of views that caught my attention. In other words, there is … Continue readingWhiplash
Dear Reader (2019-12-05), The other day I found myself walking 20 blocks or so of 17th Ave. SE. Some people call it the hood, others call International Avenue, others refuse to go there, and I found it photographically rewarding. The focus is a little soft … Continue readingEthnic Flavours
Dear Reader (2019-12-03), I have been going madly off in all directions, which might induce whiplash. This would be most unfortunate especially as these are not WCB approved work spaces. Over the next 4-6 days, I will be posting some of my recent explorations. The … Continue readingSo Many Half Baked Ideas
Dear Reader (2019-11-13), Though I had been thinking of photography, I hadn’t actually been out there with my camera for too long. On Monday, photography began later than originally envisaged. But, I did get out. That was a good and needed thing. When I started … Continue readingPrairie Pano Plus
Dear Reader (2019-11-03), This collection is not about crossing the great green greasy Limpopo River. For fans of Rudyard Kipling and the Just So Stories, the Limpopo River is where the elephant got its trunk. In my case I met a couple of people crossing … Continue readingNot The Limpopo River
Dear Reader, I have recently handed in my resignation, and now I can get back to important things like sharing my recent wanders with you. Yesterday was a walk in a park with an old friend and new friends whom I had never met. The … Continue readingA Walk in A Park
