 There is not much snow. We had a big dump of it a couple of weeks ago but the temperatures have gone back up so a lot has melted. However, I know it won't be too long before my local park looks like this again.  I took this photo last winter.

Northern lights

This was taken on my husband's cell phone. We were out walking our dog in our local park and I managed to snap a pic as they stood still for a few moments.  Pretty cool I think!

Promise

August 28, 2017

Last week I was caught up in a crazy storm that swept through the camp site where I was staying with work colleagues and a group of student leaders.  It was the real deal, complete with age old trees literally uprooted, a shed demolished and a window smashed, sending shards of glass crashing to the floor of the dining hall.   We were grateful that nobody was hurt.  The full force lasted less than half an hour.  And afterwards?  This.  Is there always calm and a rainbow after a storm?  I honestly don't know.  But I would like to think so, even if it's a very long time into the future.

Classic Alberta

Could there be a more Albertan scene than this?

 This is the view from the deck of the air bnb where I stay when I am in Portland.  I know, beautiful right?  Even after a downpour!  The creek had flooded so the trees and foliage got more than enough to drink!

Oregon Rain

February 20, 2017

I am studying for a Masters at Portland Seminary and today was Sunday which equaled a day off which equaled a daytrip to the coast.  It was a typically wet and windy Oregon coastline day. The obvious photo to post would be one of the photos I took of the crashing waves against the black rocks.  But I have chosen this one.  We parked the car and I did take a mad dash to snap a couple of pics in the pouring rain.   This one though was through the windshield.  The beachfront bench and the fence posts are barely visible.  Somehow, this captured the day!

Eerily Magical

January 23, 2017

In England, foggy days were not uncommon.  Here in Sherwood Park, Alberta, we don't see this sight very much.  Some may describe it as eerie and I guess it is.  I prefer magical though.  Or perhaps eerily magical.  Yes, that's quite fitting.

Christmas Lights

December 30, 2016

The Christmas holidays means I get to live life at a slower pace than usual.  As I suspend my normal routines I have time to pick up my camera and play around and experiment.  This shot was achieved by using a shallow depth of field and spot metering on the bright string of lights, plunging the surrounding area into darkness.  If you have no idea what I'm talking about, forget the photography geek talk and just enjoy pretty lights!

 Hoar frost has got to be one of the most beautiful things about winter here in Alberta.  This was captured on the road between where I live and Three Hills in Alberta.  I captured it while on the move (my colleague was driving!) and my iphone!
