The Weekend in Black and White

About five weeks ago, my daughter made the decision to move from here out to Eastern Alberta. It seems like only a few days ago she told me of her move, and now the move day is here.
Just like the mirror, things are really closer than they appear. This date just arrived so soon.

It's like a bridge she is crossing over to a new chapter in her life, the path leads to a new life and its hard to see on the other side where that is going to take her.
I am driving with her in her car out to Alberta and will help her move in to her new place, see where she is going to live and get a feel for the area. We have never done a road trip before, just the two of us so this should be fun. Bittersweet, because when I catch the plane back home in a week and a half and leave her at her new home, I know I am going to be sad to leave her and am going to miss her a lot. That will be the bittersweet of it all. It is a great opportunity for her out there, I could never stand in her way of that.
So the next few entries to my blog will be of our trip. Stay tuned.....

Skywatch Friday

Welcome to Skywatch Friday, the home of skies around the globe.
For this week, a photo I tried to upload on Wednesday but my computer had other ideas!
This was taken at Fishtrap Creek here in Clearbrook. It is a beautiful park to explore and enjoy on a crisp cool fall day.

Skywatch Friday

Welcome to Skywatch Friday.
This photo was taken just east of here in the farmlands of Sumas Prairie. This barn looks crooked, but everything else is straight. It was a partly cloudy day, warm for a fall day.

Some more photos of the Water Wall in Minter Gardens in Chilliwack.
It is a good place to play with your shutter speed, and try and catch the water drops.

Getting the lighting right is hard too because even on a sunny day it is a lot darker standing behind the water curtain.


And I tryed it out in black/white as well.

Macro Monday

Fall is here and leaves are falling.
This leaf was just clinging on the tree, crumpled up and mostly dead.

And fallen leaves in the grass.
