Skywatch Friday


Skywatch Friday
One of the things I love about Photography is that things we take pictures of may seem like one thing but in reality are actually something else.
Sometimes things are not what they seem to be.
A beautiful Autumn day with the rich fall colours in splendor?
Or maybe something else. Can you figure it out???

That's My World Tuesday

I've been learning all sorts of things in my Photoshop class, some of which has piqued my curiosity and caused me to go looking for tutorials to create some wild photos.
So, I just learned about Planet Photos, so had to try one for My World Tuesday.
This is Granville Island, a huge Market located under the Granville Bridge in Vancouver. The waterfront is a hub of activity and across from the market is located huge apartment buildings. To get from Granville Island over to the other side you can take cute little water taxies. At the Main Market you can get fresh vegetables, meats and seafoods, and as well the Island also boasts its on Brewery and a few live art theaters. Emily Carr School of the Arts is also on Granville Island.

Macro Monday

Sometimes when you take a photo of something, and then open it up on the computer you get a bonus something you had no idea was there when you snapped the shot.
I had no idea this little green and red bug was on this flower. I was zeroed into the water drops!

Isn't he cute for something that was not supposed to be there!

I have wanted to submit these next two photos for a few weeks now, but I keep missing the date.
At the Greater Vancouver Zoo resides a Tiger. It is probably the only way I would ever get to see a live Tiger, and I am thankful there is one here at the Zoo for me to visit. The tiger was walking along the path along side of the fence and in an effort to get his picture, I was walking on the other side of the fence with him. I don't think he was very impressed with that.

After putting up with me matching his footsteps, he had had enough and turned and lunged at me at the fence. Even though I knew the fence was there and I was safe, I still almost fell backwards! I think if that fence was not there, I might have been a satisfying dinner for him!

Skywatch Friday.

Most of the time the skies are grey and it is raining here, but every now and then the blue comes out and people flock to the beaches to enjoy the day.
That is not all that flock to the beach!

I know they enjoy the beach any kind of weather involved!

But on beautiful blue sky days when people come to the beach, seagulls know there will be fish and chips on the menu!

Sure, most people think of seagulls as just big scavengers, but I have always loved to feed any kind of birds.

Seagulls are amazing acrobatic flyers when going after a french fry

And what a beautiful day and a beautiful place to enjoy feeding birds!
