Great image Graham! Congrats on POTW!

Thanks so much John, Patrick, Elin, Graham, Dave and Bobbie. So nice to know that it resonates with others. This is actually a mobile image – not filters, no editing. It is definitely my “happy place” and I can’t remember life before we could have campfires in our backyard. It is the only dining out that we do these days, which makes it extra…[Read more]

Love that you both said that, as I sometimes wonder if the feeling is there because of the memory or if the image elicits that. Happy to know it worked for others.

Haha! Yes. But I find I am always longing for the other when we have one. Wanting warmth in the winter’s cold and wishing for cold during the heat of summer.

Super capture, Charmaine. You can’t help but smile looking at this image.

Love the slightly desaturated look to reinforce that feeling of nostalgia. Perfect.

Great colours, Graham.

Fabulous image Patrick. The warm light is really working here.

Thanks Rob. Yes, it certainly would be similar to parts of Australia. We are semi-arid in the Nicola Valley and our late summer colours are “golden”. You can find a type of prickly pear here and lots of sage.

The colours seen above are our early spring palette. It actually snowed the day after I took these images! So, nothing was really growing…[Read more]

Loving the tones and textures in this one, Elin. A fabulous landscape image!Congrats!

Thank you for sharing Federico – that was lovely. And reminded me of the joy of hunting for eggs in our chicken pen growing up.

Joanne – I loved hearing about the negatives your father left you. What a treasure and wonderful keepsake. I have brought some of my parent’s images into digital. I still remember watching slide shows as a child. Grèat to learn more about you. Beautiful images you shared.

Light Stalking inspired photoshoot today…on the deck with a bouquet my husband bought me for Easter (he actually said, “There might be something good to photograph in this” when he handed it to me…LOL. He knows me so well!)

I decided to play with ICM a bit… the first image is for reference only. I call the second one “Spring Fling”

Super! I find yellow to be quite challenging to shoot. You did a great job keeping all the details while still showing us that lovely yellow.

My pleasure Dahlia. 🙂

Thanks John. 🙂 I don’t think we’ll ever get too old for this!

Thanks Elin. You have a pretty good eye! It is always fun. This year the Easter Bunny went a little overboard. Probably over-compensating for a less than stellar year 😉

I enjoy my yardwork the week after Easter…usually find a couple of treats to enjoy! But the girls are getting too clever for me. Now they know that I am probably taking pictures of the ones they missed as much as I am shooting pics of them. LOL
