Lost Shoe

The first photo I took in Vancouver was of this lost shoe. I wonder who lost it and where they were headed that night.

Fireworks

Well, this doesn't really fit with the season but it's a cool picture anyway. From Canada Day in Edmonton.

Crow in the Graveyard

I watched The Nature of Things episode about crows last week. They're really intelligent creatures. They can recognize and remember a particular human face after just one encounter, and they speak two different dialects. Pretty cool.

Eat my (Snow) Dust

Biking on Charlie Lake.

Frosty Ivy

Mushrooms

At Elk Island Park, Alberta.

I should have a more Christmasy post....

but this is all I've got today. Pretty colours....

Frosty Day

Cold weather is great for pictures. This is on the way to Old Fort where I took the deer pictures. Hopefully I'll get some good city winter pictures this week in Edmonton!

My Favorite Accident

The slow shutter speed was an accident, but this turned out to be one of my favorite pics. Every time I look at I see new faces in it. From the Slackers show at The Rev many years ago.

Foggy Sunday Morning

One great thing about Fort St. John is that when it's foggy, it lasts a looong time. I had hours to run around and take fog pictures on the back roads.

Oh Deer

I can't believe how close this doe let me get to her. She just went on eating and mostly ignored me. Unfortunately most of my shots were not sharp, as I didn't think to increase the ISO. Duh. I guess I'm still used to shooting film. Near Old Fort.

Winter Leaves

I discovered that in cold weather, breathing on your lens makes a quick soft focus filter. I was really wishing for snowshoes or cross-country ski while hiking through a foot of fresh snow at Beaton Park to take pictures. It was kind of cool though; the only tracks in the snow were animal tracks, and it was a beautiful day.

My sexy new truck.
