2016-01-26: WPC Optimistic

I am optimistic that all of these beautiful creatures will have the opportunity to live out their lives in the way nature intended, without the influence of poacher’s or trophy hunter’s bullets. That is my hope, and if like minded people continue to join together, perhaps it will happen in my lifetime.

2016-01-24:What I’ve seen this week

Two weeks in a row now, I haven’t spent much time out with my camera. 🙁 The weather has been a big factor again; the warmer temperatures have continued, cycling just above and below 0C, plus heavy rain one day and snow the day before that and after (the roads around my place are a bit challenging for walks at the moment, navigating sheets of ice and piles of frozen slush). The birds have not been around as much as usual, and I’ve barely seen the deer at all this week (though my neighbour told me yesterday there was a coyote pack hanging around, and that could definitely have something to do with the scarcity of the deer).

Fingers crossed for a more successful week of photos coming up!

20160124_What I've seen this week-3 — I spent some time out yesterday evening with a few members of the photo club; we had hoped mother nature would provide clear skies and the original plan was to go to a local lake for star photography. Alas, mother nature does what she wants, when she wants. With the lake fogged in, we stayed around town and photographed the winery across the river from town.

20160124_What I've seen this week-2 — There were too many trees along the edge of the river to get much in the way of light trails with tail lights, but I thought that this logging truck provided some interesting detail during a long exposure.

20160124_What I've seen this week — It wasn’t all doom and gloom; a beautiful morning while out walking early in the week.

2016-01-18: Monochrome Monday

As it turns out, I didn’t end up liking a single photo I took last week, so instead, I edited one from the archives that I was looking at over the weekend.

2016-01-18: What I’m sharing this week

I’ve modified the title a bit this week, since I’ll be honest, I’ve really not been out with my camera very much, and the few photos I do have, I think would be better for tomorrow’s Monochrome Monday post.

So instead, I thought I would share a sample of a project I worked on in November and December for a Christmas gift – a custom colouring book. It was a really fun project to do, and was very popular with the recipient as well.

I’ve included a few pages as a PDF available to download, if you are interested in printing them out and having a relaxing time with some coloured pencils. It’s my first attempt at making a PDF available for download, so fingers crossed I’ve done it right (It should be an easy control click or right click and select download linked file).

That’s all for today, I hope you enjoy, and have a lovely evening.
