  • Lost ball

    Out for a walk today and this trail runs behind a golf course. In the summer there is enough of trees and bushes in between that if someone was on the course they wouldn’t notice you on the path. This time of year though things have thinned out and there was one pair on a…

  • Old New Orleans Map

    New Orleans holds a special place on my heart. Due to some chance circumstances it’s where my Wife and I were married. On a river boat, on the Mississippi River, in New Orleans. Back a number of years ago I was trying to find something to put on my office wall and ran across someone…

  • Partial lunar eclipse

    This morning there was a total lunar eclipse. I was out early ready with my tripod and phone going to get a picture. Things were looking pretty good. The partial eclipse started and I had a good view from my back deck. Not long after though the clouds came in. For a while I thought…

  • Bridge at night

    The time has changed so it gets dark much earlier now. May have to do some work to get good at night photography. This bridge crosses a river to go into a marsh land trail. It was hard to get a good angle without branches or bushes in the way. It is a beautiful night…

  • Train mural

    This may be my favourite mural that was added as part of this years town mural festival. Though we don’t have any trains anymore the station here used to have the town busy. The main rain line has been turned into a multi use trail now that I spend a fair bit of time on.…

  • Hometown center court

    This town logo must be a relatively new addition to the outdoor basketball court. It’s been a little bit since I’ve been down to it, but I don’t remember it being there last time. My 13 year old and I took the three year old down to the playground while the older played around here…

  • Moon, Jupiter, Clouds, & Light

    The sky was looking really cool tonight. I love the textures the clouds have with the moon and Jupiter in behind. My previous team at work we named Jupiter and so this planet always makes me have good memories of great people.

  • On the way down

    Made it out for a decent bike ride this afternoon. It both started and ended with some good climbing but that means in the middle there was a part where there was a lot of going down. As I get older I’m more cautious but still love the speed of flying downhill on my bike.…

  • Neighbourhood flowers

    Flowers aren’t something I know very much about, but I do enjoy seeing them. For the past few weeks I’ve noticed these growing at a few homes near by. They look like a pink daisy to me.

  • Zeus

    As I was on my way up to bed I realized I hadn’t taken any pictures today at all. Our cat Zeus was waiting for me on the stairs so I took a quick one of him. The lighting wasn’t good and you can’t really see his blue crossed eyes, but he’s still a handsome…
