Can't Wait!

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.

Fall Aurora

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.

Not Ready for Winter Images Yet...

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.

How Summer Began

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.

In The Woods

It’s wintery outside. With colder weather and short days I find myself thinking of summer. Summer visits to forest, here in Alberta, are one of my favorites ways to spend a weekend.

New toy and Elk Island part 2

Shooting with the Canon 1D Classic is a pleasure.  I really like how it feels in my hand.  It's big, heavy and solid.  The shutter button compared to my 5D is a little sensitive and I found myself firing shots by mistake.  Also adding a  70-200mm lens with a canon 2x extender adds a lot of weight.  Shots at 1/100 shutter speed become challenging unless on a tripod.  Still I did manage to get a few good shots handheld.  Here are the last shots from my trip to Elk Island.

Elk?

I know I'll be showing my ignorance of the animal kingdom.... but I think this is Elk....

What is the best way to finish off a picturesque trip to Elk Island?  With a beautiful sunset of course :)
