Flight

The black spot behind the first goose is not dirt on the CMOS sensor. I did hear the goose yell "Bombs away!"

The Great Canada Goose Hunt

Assistance

The male goose was feeling very tired so the female goose was good enough to give him a ride.

Reflection

We were shooting our reflection in the window but didn't notice the guy hamming it up off to the side.

Dreaming of Spring

I can dream.

Stone

A shot of a polished stone for Theme Thursday's Mineral Challenge. I built an adapter so that I could use my old FD lenses and bellows on my 5D. I had to get very close. The stone is sitting on a dime.
This is my setup for shooting the stone (excuse the mess on my table.) The stone can be seen sitting on the dime. The depth of field is very shallow and so it all looks quite fuzzy. It was an experiment and needs lots of fine tuning, especially with the light.

My original thought for Mineral was to post a shot of a friend Al who a miner in a play. Yep, Miner Al. I opted for this instead.

Gecko Again

Went walking down near one of my favourite signs.

Unloading

This is not the proper way to unload a log car.

Customer Parking

Slices of Pie

Kelowna Girl and Her Special Friend

He has many female friends. I don't know what he has that I don't have.

Red Light

Carrot

Theme Thursday is Vegetable this week which reminded me of this monument to the mighty carrot that I shot some time ago while on one of our adventures. The base the carrot is somewhat in need of repair but the carrot still looks fresh.

Spring's Dirty Little Secrets

As the snow begins to melt, winter's accumulations begin to appear.

Mountain View

Balls

I was after the shadows.

One Up, One Down

Children just don't seem to pay attention these days. They half listen.

The Line of Trees

A line of trees at Hampton Court Palace.

One

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn’t belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

- Sesame Street

Animals

Okay, it is a sloppy job but I was just playing around. Again.
The poor head was actually on a wall in a Jasper Hotel. The goat head, that is.

Water

Somewhere to trek this summer.

May hem

Actually, right now it is still March hem.

Brain of a Stoner

The Fountain

Skoal

A shot from 1976.

Glass

When you are shooting photos, it is always nice to have a good piece of Glass. Not essential of course but very helpful.

The glass in this Kodak No. 3-A Folding Brownie Camera from 1902 (before I born) doesn't have great glass by today's standards but it works very well none the less. It has been decades since I used it but it worked well when I did.

You can bypass the glass altogether and use a pinhole camera but I do like some good glass in my cameras. Or, as in this camera, glass and brass.

Veins

I am sick of snow. Have I said that already?

The Pose

A detail from my favourite cat.

Droplets

I shot this a few years ago. I guess the colours have faded with time.

It was Spring Today

Well, Spring-like. Maybe it was to celebrate National Pig Day. It is supposed to last a couple of days then back to the freezing weather that has no reason to be here.
