Spring At The Homestead

Spring is slowly fighting to melt Winter's blanket.  The sun is a little warmer as each day passes.

No Sign Of Summer

The March issue of Imagery Newsletter is finally going to post after several delays.  I hope to see it by Monday at http://imagesalberta.ca/imagery/.  Gee, next week and I get to start April's newsletter.

With our unusually heavy snows this year, I felt that my photo 'No Sign Of Summer' fit the season.  This is a shot of the snow banks and a road sign leading to the swimming area at Cold Lake Provincial Park; maybe it is for the Polar Bears!   Eventually our snow banks will recede and become muddy lakes across the road - we can only wait!  Spring starts tomorrow.

Enjoy the newsletter: there are several great articles from members of the Images Alberta Camera Club and, of course, the winning images from last month's 'Eye' theme are there for all to see..

Winter Shadows

A gorgeous winter afternoon with some promise of spring on the way.  We are starting a week that will see melting each day.  Daylight saving time started today and this has been a day to save as the sun is shining strongly and creating beautiful shadows across the snow.

Remember Summer?

The snow is getting deeper and it's been too long since seeing green grass so I figured I would dig through last summer's (remember summer?) shots to find something to warm our souls.
