I decided to post this photo in celebration of spring. It's an old one. This was shot for a challenge called "Grass". I could not think of anything to make grass interesting subject, and then this idea popped into my head. Even though this was taken almost 2 years ago, I still remember it vividly, and not for the reasons you might think :). We were in the public park where we figured the grass would be nicest. The camera was placed on the ground with some rice bags for support. I had my wife lay down, and I set the focus, composition and set the 10sec automatic timer. When I pressed the shutter, I had to run into position with my beautiful yellow jokey shorts around my ankles. Just so you know we were fully clothed, twisted we might be, but we are not exhibitionists :). Still people were giving us confused and dirty looks. Luckily no one called the police. So here it is, the fruit of our labour. A beautiful picture, perfect for celebrating spring.

The snow is mostly gone, here on the prairies, but it will be some weeks before we see greenery and flowers blooming. I can’t wait! It has been a long winter and I sure could use a bit of color. Late spring or early summer images are great for it because all is fresh and green is bright and not dimmed by dust of late summer days.

We are lucky here in Alberta, because some nights are full of light show. We had a couple of gorgeous Aurora showing last fall and I have managed to capture some shots without leaving the city.

I know, I know it is winter and everybody posts winter photography, but I am not ready for it yet. I see it outside my window every day, so I want to see something warm, colorful and pretty. Hope you are in need of this as well.

It has been a while since I’ve posted anything about Elk Island National Park. So, I think, it is time for some lovely sunset from the beginning of summer, when all was green, flowers were blooming and days were warm and long.
