Doc loves anything to do with the gold rush days in the far north. I think he was born about a 150 years too late.

The autumn season has ended, and there is a definite chill in the air when I awaken each morning. The temperatures have been hovering in the mid-twenties, and frost covers the ground, as I stand at the kitchen stove whipping up a hearty breakfast for Doc and myself. For the most part, canoes and larger crafts have been put away, in favor of completing the final chores needed for the long winter that looms ahead. I say a sad goodbye to my favorite season, and look toward the sky for the first snow flakes that will herald a new season.

I love the following quote, so thought I'd share it with the few that may have never read it before . . .

"Love many,

Trust few,

But always paddle,

Your own canoe."

... a capture from last summer,

I've been working on the color scheme of this image on-and-off for some time never satisfied with the result...

Shanghai in the fog.

We did not have the best weather throughout most of our trip.

This created a bit of a photographic challenge.

On this particular evening, Shanghai's business district Skyline was in the clouds most of the time.

A bit of fun and practise with Photoshop on this one.

This image consists of 12 vertical shots in 3 rows stitched in Photoshop CC.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Thanks for looking.

What do you do when told to rest up, take the pills, and let your body fight off the infection?

Once your mind has cleared a little, well, there is just an ocean of boredom as you think of all these great ideas of what to shoot next, and yearn to get moving. You know the energy would melt away quicker than snow in the sunshine, and your concentration too! That's when I turn to a jigsaw ;o)

A simple pleasure, and one that is part way to 'mindless' but without the added noise of the TV!

Created from my own photograph of prisms and crystal - using Photoshop.

Many thanks for the good wishes - I'm recovering nicely - and will be catching up again, though maybe a little slowly ;o)

Happy Sliders Sunday to everyone ;o)
