Random shots.

Nothing like forgetting to post pics after you've worked on them. Came across these that were just sitting there waiting to be posted after about a month. Duh.

Published? Yah baby!

Go figure. I've never entered a photo contest before but I'd thought it would be fun. I entered two photographs for the Manitoba Credit Unions' 2009 calendar contest as per contest rules and hoped they'd pick one. Not only was I blown away by getting one picture included I received a great compliment by getting two chosen! And best of all, one was used for the cover! I certainly felt great about it. Can't wait to see the final product. They are two photos I've posted here previously as well. He's a link to the winning enteries.

Flowers in March!

Well...I basically feel like a complete idiot. I spent the WHOLE winter wishing I had flowers to photograph. Yes, they became my suprise favorite subject of the year and I'm really looking forward to this summer. So...while I've been off in lala land I'd totally forgotten about our park's consevatory that would have kept me tied over until summer. So I only figured this out a few days away from spring and feel really dumb about this. I guess It's a head start anyways but geeeezzz...






"...Time for my close-up Mr.DeMille."

I swear this nut follows me everytime I'm in the park. I've never seen a squirrel that liked to pose before but he does. Every year, I'm convinced it's the same one. He always smiles at me to, which is really frightening. Well whatever he wants, he's not getting royalties.
