Storefronts of Moores clothing store, SQDC cannabis store, and Jean Coutu pharmacy line a city street in Montreal, Quebec, with various architectural styles of buildings visible.
We took the dog for a late walk today, what a wonderful sunset. One of those occasions when you just have to 'stop and stare'.
Been into the archives to find this.
This was taken using my first digital camera - bought second or third hand on eBay. I used for a few months during 2010 and into the next year before I upgraded to a camera that had more features and bigger picture files. Since then its remained in a drawer until I got curious to discover its charms again - and certainly it does have something as recent semi-macro photos show.
The scene is very local and hasn't changed too much over the last nine years - the fence is more worn, and the string has been replaced.

I had it in my mind that today I would manage a decent bird photo; sadly the birds were not of the same mindset and this was the best I managed.
I actually only ended up with two bird photos today; this one and one where the bird decided to moon me.
Neither photo was amazing, but because the idea was stuck in my head I couldn't let it go, so I opened my photo in PhotoShop, cropped the photo and processed it out and decided to go with it.
Hopefully when the seasons change I'll be able to find more cooperative birds, but for now, the wildlife hides and it's slim pickings for me and my camera.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Our Boxing Day jaunt included a walk around Langford Lakes. There weren't many birds around ... a few cormorants and loads of Canada geese. But there were lots of lovely bare trees and some nice reflections.

A storm crashes over the top of Cusop Hill (401m asl) just over the border from Hay-on-Wye, on an early spring day of sunshine and showers.
A bright, cold January day, and a short visit to nearby heathland.
I shot some general scenes which I will post that gives a "flavour" of the area in winter.
it sure looks like early spring with the rivers overflowing and the snow mostly gone. Fifteen Mile Creek below Rockway Falls

Today was 9 degrees outside but I decided to be brave and went for some photos. The weather has been one of the reason on why i haven't been shooting very much. I usually write my ideas and will start soon creating them.
The Honghe Hani rice terraces are a recently designated UNESCO World Heritage Site in the south of Yunnan province, China. They cascade down the Ailao mountains to the banks of the Hong River and have been in constant cultivation for the last 1300 years. They are sculpted out of the hills so the water flows down from the top, filling each one in turn. These terraces are at Duoyishu. The early morning light caught the rims of the terraces, highlighting them and bringing out the contours.

Like many parts of the US, we are currently in a deep freeze. While shoveling snow off the driveway yesterday, I happen to look up at the furnace flue to see this. Apparently, the heat from the flue melts the snow off the cap, but still cold enough for stalagmites to form underneath the corners. It was 13F/-11C when I took this yesterday.
Today is the shortest day length of the whole year: 7 h 50 min 25 sec only at 51° 25' 44.748" North latitude. The solstice signals the onset of Winter.
At dusk, a lofty bare tree seems to strive to almost reach the sky above the Dommel river's bank in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. It is ten minutes after the sunset, so the very last glimpses of sunbeams are just discernible in the westernmost part of the evening cloud-laden sky.
The shot was inspired by Enya's “Winter Came” masterpiece.
