November 2012

Although this image was taken in May, it is very typical of November in my backyard.

This image and other of my favourite images are available for purchase. Information is on the “Prints” tab above.

Our aircraft have been parked on shore for the winter but we can continue to enjoy scenes of summer…

Wish I had been able to set up a time lapse camera for this transformation.

It may only have been an hour from the first grey, foggy shot (see previous posts) to the clear blue skies (posts to follow) of this particular morning. I hardly knew which direction to turn and shoot for all around me was in transition.




frosty dawn (continued)

Moisture from the creek caused a build up of frost pointing back to its source.

There are just some mornings…

There are just some mornings worth getting up early for! (Bet you thought I was going to say something about staying in bed!) This particular morning, my dear hubby, almost always up before me, peeked out the window, recognized a special atmospheric condition I would appreciate and brought it to my attention. I jumped out of bed, grabbed my gear and headed out. He’s a good man!

Fog was thick and temperatures hovered around zero Celsius. I knew both the fog and frost would disappear quickly. It was so incredibly beautiful.


The lack of colour in the initial shots is striking!

With brightening skies, colours emerge.
You ‘ll have to wait to see the transition to clear skies that morning…..
