Plumeria Obtusa (Frangipani)

I took a lot of photos of flowers while in Mexico. There were just so many different beautiful plants there. I like the way the petals overlap on this flower.

Langevin Bridge Lights

Chelsey I have been trying to find time to go for a night time drive around the city to get a few shots and to give me a chance to play with more of the settings on my new camera. I finally got the chance to sneak out for an hour this evening (unfortunately, without Chelsey). This is Langevin Bridge in Downtown Calgary.

This is my favourite macro shot so far. I am very excited to get a proper macro lens for my new camera so that I can take some real close up shots.

Woodland Cycle

This is another shot from my photo day with Chelsey at the end of September. I think this would be a very boring shot were it not for the bicycle in the bottom left.

Saddledome At Night

I went for a little drive this evening to try get some nice shots of the city at night. It took a while for me to figure out the right settings on my camera for the best result, but I am pleased with how this shot turned out.

The Changing Seasons

Just a simple shot I took this afternoon. I like the way the green grass with the dead leaves and the snow captures the various seasons.

Migrating Pair

So I finally got the chance to go out for a walk today to try out my new camera a little more. I just went down to the Bird Sanctuary, but I did manage to get a few good shots. What I really like about this one is the weird lines the clouds made.
