Sun, Sand & Snuggles

This is the second shot I have posted from the Sea Lion Beach on Kangaroo Island, Australia. I love this one...they are so cute!

Hiding Hydrant

I thought this looked really neat hiding in the tall grass. I really like the blue fish painted on the side.

Vancouver Sunset

I'm surprised how well this shot turned out considering it was taken out of a moving vehicle on my first trip through Vancouver. I believe that the land mass in the distance is Vancouver Island.

Summer Flowers

Just a quick one of some flowers that were outside a house I cycled past last week.

Empty Jungle

I have to say...I felt a little creepy hanging around a playground with a camera! But there were no kids so I think its OK. I tried one of Adobe Photoshops many effects on this shot...I think it looks kind of cool.

Windy Mountains

I haven't posted any mountain landscapes recently so I thought it might be time for another one.

Garden Mushrooms

As today was such a nice one, I decided to mow the lawn. While doing this, I shredded these mushrooms that were hiding in the grass. But first I stopped to take a few quick shots.

Fountain Crab

This awesome crab water feature was outside one of the museums that I visited on my first trip to Vancouver.

Great Blue Heron

On my last trip to Vancouver, I went for a walk down to a hidden nudist beach. The weather was a little cold for any nudists, so it was nice and quite and I managed to get a few nice shots of some of the bird life there.

Green Forest River

This shot of this winding river flowing through a luscious green forest was taken in the Grampians National Park (Australia)

Grapes on the Vine

Big Juicy Grapes from the Okanagan! Just thing of the Delicious wine that these will make!

Cape Du Couedic Lighthouse

This is one of the lighthouses on Kangaroo Island (Australia). This is one of my favorite shots from my trip to the island.

Calgary Skies

I was driving home the other day just as the sun was setting...I couldn't resist taking a slight detour to try capture a few shots of the cityscape.

Lilac Lilac

Back to my neighborhood exploration last week. Just a simple close up shot of a Lilac Tree.

The Pondering Munk

While on a walk in Banff a few summers ago, there was this Chipmunk at the side of the path just watching people walk past. It looked so content just leaning on this stump.

End of The Tracks

This is another shot from my cycle around my neighborhood the other day. These unused railway tracks just disappear into the tall grass.

Chevy Van

There have been several things around my neighborhood that I keep driving past and thinking 'that would make a good photo'...So yesterday I cycled around and took photos of everything. At the end of my alley, there is a house that has a whole load of old vans rusting in the driveway. This is one of them.

Prepared for Takeoff

I took this shot at the Butterfly House in the Calgary Zoo. It sucks that the humidity gave most of my shots this foggy look to them. I tried my best to crisp the image up in Photoshop.

Mountainous Reflections

I thought I would post another one of my Photoshop experiments today. This is the same idea as the last one with the reflection in that water, only this time with a mountain landscape.

Tuesday 7 June 2011

Sun Daisies

I took this shot of these pretty sun coloured flowers on Nose Hill, Calgary a few summers back.This is another plant that I don't actually know the name of, so if anyone knows...please enlighten me.

Airport Sunset

While waiting for a flight, I took this shot out of the terminal window. This is another photo that I can't remember exactly where it was taken. I really have to start keeping my photos more organized.

Summer Rockies

Another mountain landscape from my first road trip through The Canadian Rockies.

Saturday 4 June 2011

River Sausages

This photo was taken at a lake in Alberta where I went fishing once. I can' remember the name of the lake but it was awesome fishing and I got quite a few nice shots there.

Friday 3 June 2011

Beached Jellyfish

This Jellyfish just glowed as the sun shined off it. I could see it from ages away as I was walking down this beach in Australia.

Thursday 2 June 2011

Tulips

Here is another shot from yesterdays cycle. At the Olympic Plaza in Downtown Calgary, there were these big flowerbeds full of these brightly coloured tulips.

Geeselings

I went for another cycle today and while I was down by the river I saw these two Canadian Geese and their babies. So of course I couldn't resist stopping to take a few shots of these cute little guys.
