2016-12-15: WPC New Horizon

For the coming year, I plan to continue to challenge myself to explore new places, walk my own path, and plan adventures to the places that call to me.

That’s what I did in 2016, and it has been a fabulous year.

From my time in the Masai Mara in September, the dawn of a new day.

2016-11-25: Feel Good Friday

These are the pictures that jumped out at me to post today; I’m not sure why, but I decided to run with it. 🙂

These are from my time in Damaraland, Namibia. We had the opportunity to explore the Twyfelfontein World Heritage Site to see the bushman rock art. The rock art depicts people, the animals and birds of the region, and even the location of both permanent and seasonal waterholes.

20161125_fgf3 — Giraffe, oryx, humans, and I am going to guess a bird like the Kory Bustard are depicted here.

20161125_fgf2 — Giraffe and antelope carvings and the landscape beyond.

If you’d like to learn more about the area, here is a link to a wiki page about it.

2016-11-20: What I've seen this week

It’s seems like such a long time since I have done one of these posts! I was planning to do one last week, but woke up Sunday morning to a computer meltdown instead – not quite how I was planning to spend my day.

I’ve got a bit of a mixed bag from the last two weeks… Fingers crossed I can get back into the routine of weekly photos again 🙂

Have a great week everyone!

20161120_what-ive-seen-this-week — I was very excited that the first time I’ve saw Bohemian Waxwings happened to be on a bright, sunny day.

20161120_what-ive-seen-this-week-2 — These were part of a larger group that were in my neighbourhood for a very short period of time. If I had left a few minutes later for my lunchtime walk, I would have missed them. 1/800 sec, f5.6, ISO 320

20161120_what-ive-seen-this-week-5 — This fox has become a fixture in the neighbourhood, but (s)he is very shy and scurries away as soon as Spencer and I get close. The weather has been to iffy to haul around my big lens, so zoom and cropping are my friends. 1/500 sec, f5.6, ISO 800

20161120_what-ive-seen-this-week-3 — For the Monday supermoon, I went on a field trip with my photo club. After a year and a half living here, it’s the first time I have been down to photograph the train bridge. All you can see of the moon is the light trail on the water. 0.4 sec, f4.0, ISO 2000 (Nikon D610)

20161120_what-ive-seen-this-week-4 — Same scene, different camera and a different interpretation. 0.3 sec, f3.1, ISO 1000 (Panasonic FZ1000)

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Older Than 50 Years

I didn’t think I would be entering any photos for this challenge, as I couldn’t think of any subject to photograph. Then, a couple weekends ago, I signed up to go for a hike to Ancient Forest. We had a beautiful day for a hike in the forest, and lucky for me, a member of one of the local hiking groups accompanied the group I was with, to give a talk about the area.

Certainly if you are in the Prince George area it is a beautiful place to visit, and a very unique ecosystem in the region. Some of the cedars in the forest were in excess of 5 metres in diameter and over 2,000 years old.
