show me the way to go home
Photography 101: Solitude – Capture a snapshot that conveys the state of being alone.
Cairns built by unknown hands high on the Lakeview Mountain Trail in British Columbia’s Cathedral Provincial Park, all show you the way home. When the mist comes up they are a welcome sight to the traveller suddenly very much alone in the solitude of the mountain.
This painting was first a photograph and is now a photograph of a painting. I hope this legitimizes its inclusion in Photography 101. I will await the reprimand.purrfectly blissful spot for a catnap
Photography 101: Bliss – Ah, bliss. What does this word mean or look like to you?
What is your idea of bliss? Cheri asks. Well, I know what it is for Sunday. After over a year of blogging it’s the purrfect time to introduce you to a beloved member of the family. Sunday walked into our lives nine years ago, on a Sunday, and decided she was home. Tonight she looked so blissful in front of the fire, it was clearly a match. I Hope you agree.
Spring Back Fall Forward
Photography 101: Street – Today, capture an establishing shot of a street scene in your neighborhood.
With winter just around the corner Cheri’s challenge today is the perfect excuse to spring back to those beautiful April blossoms that dazzled us for days just down the street.
Fast forward to today and enjoy those same trees now dressed in their glorious Fall colors.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Cover Art
For this week’s Photo Challenge, Pete Rosos invited us to stimulate our creative processes and imagine which of our images we would like to see gracing the cover of a book. Those of you who have followed my blog will be familiar with the bookshelf, and a feint image of the painting on the book cover was seen in one of my Monday bouquets. This week I wondered how it might look on the cover of a retrospective catalogue from an imagined exhibition at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Nothing like thinking big… even though it’s pure fantasy!
Oh Canada. They stood on guard for us.
R.I.P. Cpl. Nathan Cirillo murdered today guarding the National War Memorial in Ottawa.
R.I.P. Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, murdered two days ago in Saint-Hubert, Quebec.
This has been a sad week for all Canadians. This painting by Georgia O’Keeffe from The Philips Collection in Washington entitled Leaf Motif 1, expresses the emotions I feel tonight.
