Harriet teaches piano lessons to neighborhood children each Monday afternoon. Grammie comes over to care for the children so she can focus on her students. Today, she is teaching Greta for the first time. She is showing Greta how to hold her fingers.
Just found this piano at a garage sale for 0.75. It is a music box from the early 1970s. I don't have a stool, so I used this end table for now. I'll make a proper long bench sometime.

This is the first in a series on an old school house I captured earlier this year. I believe the last class was held here in the early 60s, its now used for storage and to display arts and craft during the annual crafts fare.

Clicked on "On This Day" on my Facebook this morning and up popped a photo taken down at Ballymorran, just outside Killinchy. This was one of several shots taken to ensure my camera was still in working order, as whilst stepping from the roadside down onto the shore, I slipped and fell on the rocks. To use the local vernacular, I went down like a "three fut ruler"
Camera went one way, I went another, filter into the water and a badly staved wrist.....or so I thought!! My first thought of course was never mind my wrist......"Is my camera broken?"
A few painful test shots confirmed it was ok but I now had a wrist like the Elephant Mans. I tried to soldier on but couldn't, so I drove home......how I did, I have no idea? I took some painkillers and anti inflammatories and carried on regardless. Thank goodness I had the sense to take my wedding ring off though as, next morning my hand was twice the size it was before!!! I had broken/crushed the end of one of the bones nearest my wrist and spent the next six weeks in plaster. A painful lesson indeed :)
Well, I've only had the chance to shoot Picture Lake once so far, but I am itchin' to get back up there sometime soon.
Anyway, this is from September. I revisited it today, because I was pretty unhappy with almost all of my shots that day because of the horrific lens flare I was getting from the circular polarizer I was using. I should have been more careful and/or used a lens hood.
I suppose this is a lesson learned. Anyway, I went through the 60 or so shots I took up there that day, and found this series that was lacking the annoying flare!
The real reason I brought this one back to life is because I had intended to put one of the Shuksan images in the "gallery" I set up today at Boxley's in North Bend, but after printing and framing the 20x30, I was too disgusted with the flare to display it, so I put it back in the car and brought it back home with me...
I do like this one, because if you look closely you can see a dragon fly =)

Lesson ONE
Don't try too hard, brush your hair, dab a spot of perfume here and there!
Then fall asleep and dream of the girl you are :-)
I drew this sitting in the car, and colored it there as well. Completely forgot that I was supposed to take a picture of it before I added paint. But it is early in the week, so will try to do another door before next Tuesday. I really, really really enjoyed this, as I used my finger as my measuring instrument and think I got the dimensions correct. And I used my new (in the mail today!) Rosemary pocket brush and found it delightful, so I went into watercolor heaven for a while. I did two drawings of the same door and inked the smaller one after an attempt at paint without the lines, since the watercolor pencil disappeared. The second one I did no lines until after I painted. I am very inclined to break the rules...sorry.

This time I'll do things differently
This time I'd like to need you less
I'm struggling, I'm struggling
I've given in, I've given in
This time I'll keep an overview
This time I'll keep away from you

Such a patient puppy. The girls are constantly messing with him.
This morning they were trying to make him sit and watch Calilou.
Happy New Year guys! I wish all the best. May this one be the best one ever, and not a crash like 87 years ago.

For Project Soul Pancake: Admire An Old Building
While living in the Rocky Mountains is great for it's nature, it's quite lacking in any real ancient buildings to explore. While I wish I had some abandonded hospitals or schools or skyscrapers to wander through, I'm afraid that most of our buildings are still very much in use. Since this area really didn't start to develop until the gold rushes in the late 1800's most of our "old buildings" are from that time period, including the one in the photo above.
Built in the early 1900's this building was originally a residential school comissioned by the Canadian Government and run by the Catholic Church to "educate and house" first nations children. Essentially the government, along with the church wanted to assimilate first nations people into "european life" in the new world and this was their way of doing it and it wasn't optional, it was mandatory. For such a beautiful building it holds what I'm sure is a dark history, I tried to find some stories about or some elders to tell me about it but I haven't heard back yet. I feel that this is such a tragic part of Canadian history that often gets overlooked, it makes me sad to think that at the time this was how our government acted. The building stopped being used as a school in 1970's and is now a part of a hotel and resort complex, an attempt at reclaiming the building for more positive uses I suppose. I've only ever been inside this building once and it held in it some very strong vibes and emotions, as it would after being used in such a way.

Another shot, this one is from desert view location at the Grand Canyon National Park. We started our drive up to the canyon at 4:00 in the morning as the sunrise was at 6:00 and it’s about an hour and a half long drive.
Once we were near the Park entrance I could actually see the light breaking through and we were in a hurry to get to the desert view outlook. We managed to get there in time and as soon as we got out of the car, we got a lesson in temperature elevation relationship. It was cold and extremely windy, I had to hold down by 4 pound tripod so that it won’t get knocked over by the bitter cold wind. This was the first shot I took of the sunrise which was much vivid than any I have seen in a long time.
Thanks for visiting, hope everyone enjoys the image.

ALWAYS CHECK YOUR ISO SETTINGS! I had the opportunity to sit down by the water for a bit today, and came back with quite a few shots. Once I opened them in Lightroom, I realized that I had left my ISO settings to 800... resulting in way more grain than I needed.
Luminar2018 helped, but I could have done better.
Sheesh.
