Ray Swaluk was born and raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario. He has studied under Master Artists such as Tom Lynch, Rose Edin, Jim West and Gord Mackenzie. He also studied under great local Artists, Peter Humeniuk and Greg Zelinski. Ray believes that to be a good landscape artist, one must paint on the scene as much as possible and feels that living in Northwestern Ontario with it's shores and rugged rock formations give him great subject matter wherever he goes. He says the challenges in water colour painting are endless. Ray has also taught some art classes in his community and hopes to pass on this great medium of art to many others. Ray is a member of the North Shore Watercolour Society. His work is on display in the Lake Superior Art Gallery. ~ Thanks to Mother Nature

The Witterings this morning, calm and quiet, just how I like it.
Taken for the T189 Alphabet Challenge H is for HDR - not a great choice as the sea was going out but it was so far away I think I have got away with it!
J'aime passer par le cimetière quelques jours après la Toussaint. Les fleurs égayent les monuments souvent gris et ternes. L'endroit est paisible et calme après la frénésie des visites "hommages fleuris".
Je l'ai trouvé moins fleuri que l'an dernier, même les morts subissent le contre-coup de l'inflation.
I realized that it has been a while since i have indulged in a little narcissism! So this is me, taking a picture of me, in the same bar in Ypres from the previous shot, only this time in the mirror right next to me, not the one on the other side of the room.
I spent ages trying to edit this, but was never really happy with the results. In the end, just as I was about to give up, I used the limited abilities of Picasa to come up with the best results! In 30 seconds I pressed the options to brighten it up a bit, make it b&w, add the film grain (it was already grainy due to the high ISO setting, but the messy digital grain, not the nice old grain from a 1600 film...) and voila! All I did then was to add a border using the Gimp.
The Atlanta airport is a crazed rush of people converging at terminal connections. I was standing outside the restroom, waiting for my sister, trying to avoid the crush when I noticed this man across the way.
Grateful for calm moments found in the midst of chaos.
Remain calm, serene, always in command of yourself. You will then find out how easy it is to get along. - Paramahansa Yogananda
