The Halloween night can make for same great pictures but my window for taking pics was very small tonight.  Time was limited with little ones!

So I snapped a few when they weren't paying attention. :)

It was a very busy night tonight, therefore, I didn't have many options.  So it quickly became a "walk around the house and take pictures of things" night.

This is one of my most favorite things. My dad had is made for my birthday present this year. Well done, Dad.  I liked the way it was set up the lighting and, really, I just wanted to share it.

If you stare at this face too long, you may turn into a puddle of goo.  :)

Beautiful day for a walk in the river bottom...

and so many picture oppertunities.  I think the unexpected finds can make the best pics.

Dog Eat Pig Kind of World

It's a dog eat pig kind of world... some days you're the dog... some days you're that little pig just sitting there so cute and happy until...

Ha ha - good to be back.  Got lost in the land of hermits and workaholics and actually liked it.  Problem is this, I take better care of myself when I'm a photographer.

October 26, 2012

Spent the evening with an amazing family and I didn't want to leave to take my photo of the day so I walked around the house to see what I could find.

This is what I like to call my "museum shot".  ;) 

October 27, 2012

Just really needed to spend some time here today...

#50 If only

... Joe were here to enjoy his favourite treat.  

#49 Might just have to

... put some of this to good use today.  

October 25, 2012

I found this on my walk today...pretty, I thought.

#48 I think that

... the best part of all this snow will be the cool photos we can take.  

October 24, 2012

I once had a conversation with my Uncle about noticing things after a snow fall you may have not realize were there before...

Case in point, this old fence post is on along side on of my favorite spots to sit and think.  I have never noticed the barbed wire attached to it until today.  Now it isn't just a fence post...it is a fence post with barbed wire ;) 

#47 Any guesses

... as to what this is?

#46 La neige

... tombe sur mon nez.

SNOW DAY!!!  and stuck at home, literally.

The school buses weren't running today so my daughter went outside as soon as she could. I had tried to bare the cold but had had enough so I took this from my kitchen window.  She loves to come up with ideas for my picture of the day...i love it!

October 21, 2012

I waited all day for this...

Don't get me wrong, I am not crazy about the snow but I did look forward to taking pics of it.  I had no idea how it was going to turn out.  Interesting!

October 18, 19 and 20

City hopping for the weekend...

October 18:

Friday night in Red Deer...waiting for the cold weather to roll in

October 19:

Saturday morning.  A little too cold but the fresh snow made for a great photo subject.

October 20:

We spent Saturday night in Edmonton at my Uncle and Aunt's house.  All their kids came home for a visit.  Their house was full of their grand children including little Ryan who was just 5 lbs and 4 days old.  It was a great visit with lots of laughs...as usual! :)

#45 Yesterday

... I was looking around the house because I wanted to photograph some of my favourite things.  It was difficult because I don't have a lot of stuff in my house, seeing that I try to be somewhat of a minimalist.  As I looked up I spotted this panel from an old wooden crate that I found in the dump this spring.  It was a fun project where I took the crate apart, washed up each panel and then applied a thin layer of varathane before I mounted them on the kitchen wall.  I love everything about this... it is Italian, it held olive oil (yummy!), it has a history, it it natural, and it has been given a new life.  This summer I did some research on the olive oil company and all I could find out was that it existed pre-1930.  Wish I could find more information.  In the meantime, I will just enjoy this found art that makes me so happy.

#44 Textures

... are one of my favourite things to photograph.

#43 Nothing but

... some translucent grass.

#42 I love spending time

... in places like this. Does that make me strange?  

October 18, 2012

In the car as a co-pilot...



I liked the clouds behind me.

#41 I find myself

...looking at the sky every morning for an amazing sunrise photo.  Yesterday's did not disappoint.  

October 17, 2012

A ray of light...

I like how that "one way" sign in right in the middle of the photo with a dirt road trailing off behind it.  It was a fluke but it could have some deeper, richer meaning about some life lesson, if you wanted it to...turning this photo into a well planned out picture! ;)

October 16, 2012

 There are so many great things to take pictures of.  Flowers are always a favorite of mine...can't what until spring now!

#40 It looks like...

... it is time to fade away.  Let the cocooning begin.  

Opportunities

So many times I've appreciated the sunset but haven't stopped to capture the moment.  I stopped twice today take pictures and this is what I have :) 

#39 I heart

...school supplies.

#38 Heading South

I wish they would take me with them.

This relaxing stuff is for the birds...

Sitting on the deck this morning, enjoying a coffee, this little sparrow was watching me.  

October 14, 2012

I know it is a day late but I didn't have time to set things up until this morning, but here is what I've got:

Yesterday I went to the Cardinals/Bills game, so I worked on the action shots!  Great game. Went into over-time. 

(On a side note....

Larry Fitzgerald is my favorite non-Seahawk player! ;) Not just because of his class off the field but he was amazing to watch live.
