Sitting in the Yellowknife airport waiting for a weather delayed plane and the camera batteries are dead. Not much to share from today as it is snowing creating a low flat light. I made a few images down at the pier in Old Town, a favorite spot for me. The house boats are freezing in for another winter but a few hardy souls are breaking the think slushy ice with their motor boats as they commute from home to work across the bay. By noon, the water has a fresh layer of soft ice set again marking their path. Soon the house boaters will have to stay put or camp out with friends in town until the bay freezes hard enough to cross by foot or snowmobile. A few dogs manage to romp back and forth across the ice further down the bay, the ice strong enough to support their play.
These shots are from April this year as the ice was just starting to melt. People were still running snowmobiles across the bay but there were temporary gangways bridging the 2 or 3 metre gap between the shore and solid ice.
And finally, a Cross Fox - named for the lighter cross shaped marking across it's shoulders and back
