  • This week we have Orange.  Interesting choice.  I took this sunset photo on Kootenay Lake in September of 2014.  The pictures do not do it justice.

  • Weekly Photo Challenge: Selfie This week’s challenge is to post an image of a selfie. I have used this one before, but I really like this photo.  We were on a 7 hour road trip from Calgary to Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.  What adds to the photo is my son’s dog.  He spends a lot of…

  • Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand On a recent rip to the Canary Islands, we took a tour of the island of Lanzarote.  The island is about 80 miles off the coast of Africa and is an autonomous province of Spain.  The island has been inhabited by Europeans since the 14th century.  It was devastated by a…

  • Today I try the newest challenge from WordPress.  The Weekly Photo Challenge : From Lines To Pattern.  I took this photo at St Pancras Station in London, UK.  This is where the Eurostar arrives and departs in London.  A great mixture of old and new.  It is also the station that Harry Potter uses to…

  • This week’s challenge – Weekly Photo Challenge: An Unusual POV.  I chose this photo taken from a canal boat in Amsterdam.  The city has about 1200 bridges, most similar to these.  This makes for some stunning views as you traverse these routes, especially where they join, as in this shot.

  • This weeks photo challenge is simply titled, Weekly Photo Challenge: Sea.  Those who follow me know that I have an affinity for the ocean, and may expect a shot of us sailing the Caribbean or something.  Not happening.  The shot I have chosen was taken in Eastbourne, UK in 2008.  Eastbourne is on the English…

  • The task this week from WordPress is “Weekly Photo Challenge: Carefree”.  This was especially hard to come up with something.  I mean. 9 bajillion pictures and finding one that epitomizes carefree, a toughie.  Then I ran across this beauty from our trip into Barcelona in October 2012.  We were at a restaurant with some friends…

  • This week we have “Weekly Photo Challenge: One Shot, Two Ways”.  An interesting concept.  With digital cameras, most pictures we take are multiple shots of the same vista, done in different ways.  This makes it very hard to come up with the perfect set.  We’ll give it a go though. I took these shots at…

  • This week WordPress has “Weekly Photo Challenge: Foreshadow”.  They suggest a storm or a flower budding out.  I chose some photos from our trip into the Laurentian Mountains in the Canadian province of Quebec.  We planned the trip for mid-October when the fall colours would be approaching their height, landing in Ottawa and renting a…

  • I chose these pictures for the Weekly Photo Challenge: Masterpiece as I love scenery and consider it both man’s masterpieces of creation complimenting the natural beauty of many vistas.  The first is photo taken in Ravello, Italy.  It shows the creativity of man, building homes and agriculture in nearly impossible locations. This next photo wass…
