  • Early summer scenes

    These photos have been taken either by me or friends and I think representative of what a wonderful country Canada can be at this time of year.

    Stopping at Crimson Lake near Rocky Mountain House,

    canoes stacked ready for summer camp programs,

    delicate lady slippers
    and red indian paint brushes,

    a loon in the lake withthe rain drops of an impeding thunderstorm  Dysis looking warily at the water

     

    an interested moose

    on a friend's
    bike trip near Golden BC.     

    In Edmonton the city River Queen boat pulling out for a Saturday cruise on the North Saskatchewan River,


    new chinese garden
      on the north river bank near downtown with roses and irises, 
    a mass of green webs of popular cotton and hanging green worms and webs

    ( didn't hike too long on this path )

    and finally in Pond Inlet on Baffin Island, a view of the mountains of Bylot Island

    and first appearances of pink saxifrage as the tundra comes alive!

         

    All these shots were taken in the last 2 weeks!

About me...

An Albertan & Canadian, definitely a northern gal. Social worker by profession, this blog has included some of my work over 10 years in Nunavut from 2002 on. Passionate about slowing down & taking time to appreciate the beauty of the outdoors or kindness in relationships as gifts & blessings; injustices against children in situations beyond their control; my faith; Nature, experiencing the outdoors whether cycling, walking. x-c skiing or gardening, my dogs, capturing on film God's beauty, experiencing life intensely & with the senses, richness of late afternoon light, wind in my hair cycling with my dog on a beach road, couching inches from an arctic flower or alpine lichen to capture it with my camera, insight of a student's new learning, a good conversation over a coffee.
