Pulled from the archives (well, March), a photo of Topaz Park with its brand new facelift. It’s getting busy with Christmas right around the proverbial corner, so I wanted to chuck something bright and sunny up here. =) p.s. – it’s been nearly three weeks and, except for the floor, all the bubbles are still hangin’ around.
out there
Good gack frackit it . . . how amazingly fantastic it is to, once again, be out there. I did not realize how much I missed cycling until recently hopping back in (on?) the saddle after many years. Now that we’re no longer in a neighbourhood where “bicycle outside front door = instant death,” life has opened up considerably. Since …
sunrise percussionists
Three little percussionists wander the field in which they’ll perform prior to the start of the Times-Colonist 10K. After two hours of solid, loud pounding on drums to push people past the 9K mark, these and many others in the Organized Khaos Percussion Ensemble were left with ringing ears, raw throats and blisters o’ plenty, but it was worth it …
Swan Lake sun
The sun reflects off the surface of Swan Lake, covered in its thin layer of I’m-not-really-sure-what. I don’t think it was algae bloom, ’cause an algae bloom’s supposed to be slimy and gross, right? This was more like zillions and zillions of itty bitty leaves and whatnot. Fascinating, but not slimy and gross. Mind, I didn’t dip my head in …
nearly new moon
A solid advantage of having to wake up and go to work at 4:00 am. =)
punch
The sun punches a hole through the sky, beams through a tree, and illuminates a mountain. Nature’s pretty cool. No photograph I could take could properly convey how absolutely unbelievable this night looked, but I hope this is a pretty fair representation. The contrast between the dark, storm-like clouds and the sharp beam of bright sunlight was immense, and really …
eh?
Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy BIRTHDAY dear Canadaaaaaa. Happy birthday to you! A bonus Friday photo to celebrate Canada Day, which I just realized is on one end of a weekend, where Independence Day is on the other end of the weekend for our American neighbours. So, while the northerns’ll would be partying it up Thursday, …
sky love you
Sky love you. Gack frackit it, ain’t nature grand? There’s nature, just going about its daily routine, minding its own business, when out of the blue (pardon the pun), it goes and slightly resembles one of the most popular icons the human race ever came up with: the heart. This cloud was all alone in its patch of sky, just …
dipper
The big dipper hangs above this old TV tower and tree-filled skyline, under the light of a total lunar eclipse. Hm. I say “a total lunar eclipse” like they come by once a freakin’ week with the TV Guide. In fact, the next one will be March 3, 2007. So, clarification: “The big dipper hangs above this old TV tower …
cloudfire
Sunbeams break through the clouds in the distance, while the rest of the sky remains extra-dark. This is the last photo for February. It’s not the most conventional month for a launch, but February’s been good for me. My very first job, a paper route I had when I was 14, began on February 1. Exactly ten years later, my …
