Macro Monday

This is Scarf, my one year old rescue Cat I have written about before in past posts. She gave me a horrible scare today and I am sure she was petrified too.

Scarf found the Air Intake hole behind our Standing Wood stove and got stuck head first in the hole. She was in there stuck for four hours. We had to take apart the stove, pull it toward the center of the room and turn it on its side to see under the stove to see her head. She was so scared and could not back up or go forward. We had to spray a bit of pepper spray on the stove to make it really uncomfortable for her which it did and after about two minutes she backed up through the hole and got out. We could not pull her out of the hole as her front legs and shoulders and head were stuck through the hole. After we got her out, we took her right away to get checked at the Vet and she had to have a bath to make sure she had any pepper spray washed off. We have eye drops for her eyes to use for the next few days, but otherwise she was okay. Thank goodness for that.

Skywatch Friday

Skywatch Friday

Its been a while since I was able to post. I have had a nasty bout of Vertigo for the past week, and have not felt like doing much of anything except trying to stay balanced.

Today the predicted snow fall happened, so really it was a good day to stay home. It snowed all day today and these pictures were taken from my upstairs bedroom window.

There is a park behind my house with a wooded area to the right of the path. The path goes all the way around the park.

The girls here have plastic garbage bags that they used to slide down the hill.

The bullrushes in the Water Retention Pond is just in front of the back of our house. It looks like its late in the day but these photos were taken at noon. The sky is bleak and cloudy, the snow continuously falling.

One corner of the soccer field. I like the starkness of the bleak sky, the snow falling and the covered trees mixed with the chainlink. It looks almost like a Black and White photo!

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!
