2016-04-05: WPC Landscape
Looking back through my photos, I think some of the most stunning landscape photos I have were taken in Namibia. The amazing contrasts of such clear blue skies and the red sand, to me it was just breathtaking.

2016-03-29: WPC Half-light
With the sun just about halfway below the tree line, I thought this fit the bill for this week’s WPC topic, Half-light.

2016-03-13: What I’ve seen this week
Last Sunday brought clear skies and a showing of the aurora; unfortunately I knew I would be really busy Monday morning, and decided to just hang around the yard and snap a few photos. I did see a few glimpses, but I’m sure if I would have headed for an area with fewer tall trees, the view would have been outstanding.
I spent a bit of time outside today watching, and photographing, the redpolls. I don’t think they will be here for much longer, but I know their absence will be filled with other birds heading back after wintering further south.
Signs of spring are all over the place; tree branches in bud, and more visible ground than snow, though yesterday we had quite the afternoon storm with driving wind, hail and a bit of snow. My attempts to photograph the near sideways hail left me flat.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week; here are the photos.
2016-03-11: Feel Good Friday
I came across the hashtag #FeelGoodFriday on a photo this morning, and not only was it a beautiful image that made me smile, but it inspired me to pick a photo pf my own as a feel good Friday photo.
This is one I have wanted to edit for a while, and doing so has made me happy. The light in the desert of Namibia is so magical, I hope I captured a bit of that.
Enjoy, and TGIF!
2016-03-10: WPC Harmony
A warm sunny day, brilliant blue skies, lush green grasses and trees. And an elephant. Of course there’s an elephant. 🙂
My take on nature working in perfect, beautiful harmony. And a reminder of a wonderfully happy day.
Have a great day!
2016-02-06: WPC Wall
I’m a bit behind with selecting and editing for photo challenges, but I thought immediately of the time I spent at Robben Island when I saw the topic Wall.
2016-03-06: What I’ve seen this week
I took my camera with me everywhere this past week, but just didn’t have any inspiration to use it. It happens sometimes! Last night though was brilliantly clear, so I headed outside for a couple shots of the stars. I was too tired to head anywhere more exciting then my front yard though.
Here are a couple shots from last night.
Have a great week everyone!
