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.
At the northwestern tip of Trotternish Peninsula on the Isle of Skye, we have found another picturesque location for our photo adventures, right by the ruins of Duntulm Castle. Since the tide was low and a portion of the sea floor was revealed I have had a rare opportunity to explore the multitude of sea plants with their wonderful colors and shapes as well as take in the views.
Continuing the post from yesterday, at one point we were visited by a old male bison, that decided to take a drink from the lake at the spot we were shooting. We had to quickly fold down the lights and move away from the area. Those big creatures seem slow and lumbering, but not when they feel threatened. We just watched him as he moved slowly into the lake, probably to cool off. So here are more shots from that wonderful weekend. Enjoy!
Couple of weeks ago, Randy Pond invited me to a little photo session at the Elk Island National Park. We met up with Renee Robyn, and Jena Skye, both very talented models. We were also joined by millions of blood sucking mosquitoes . Over all the shoot went quite well, and everyone was wearing a new perfume called "Off". Enjoy!
