In the southern part of the province, we called it "sledding" while the north uses "sliding". This is my oldest daughter, aged 4 or 5, in the late 1990s, pulling her sled and ready to go back up the hill. Merry Christmas, everyone!
These are common as pets, and, as a result, have become common way outside of their native range. Red-eared sliders are considered an invasive species in Washington State, but who can blame them? Washington is pleasant.

Sometimes things aren't always as they seem.
All three images combined from my archives for Sliders Sunday.
Done in iPiccy today and rather fast. Not many photos to choose from at the moment.
Maybe view large, and thank you for your favourites. :)
Another slide from our drive across the Southwest in the summer of 1977. . .Yikes. . .1977! I'm enjoying scanning and tweaking these very old slides, but it also gets a little scary when I realize just how long ago this was. We were entering the Coconino National Forest at Flagstaff, Arizona when I took this shot. After leaving Flagstaff that evening we drove all night to Kingman, Arizona where we spent the night.
Year: 1977
Film: Kodachrome 25
Camera: Nikon Nikkormat EL
Lens: Nikkor 105mm 2.5
A westbound train on Canadian Pacific's Crowsnest Sub passes the Frank Slide. The remains of the slide which happened over 100 years ago still have a large presence as the huge boulders dwarf the passing train. If you look very closely, you can see my brother and good friend slightly to the left of the cab of the lead locomotive.

Multiple "slider tools" were used to dig this one out of the dull dreary sky of yesterday.
High flow here at Ohio Pyle State Park as I managed to stop by the slides before I headed home on Sunday.

The last days of winter were cold, windy and damp here. The geese went about their business regardless, of course. It took every slider to chrome, crop and contrast to bring this gray image to life.
I put my shaving mousse monster through a load of changes in iPiccy.
Although iPiccy doesn't seem to like my browser at the moment, I had to use my other one to access it.
The processing had also changed the colour of his nose, but I retouched it in PhotoScape to turn it back to a red one.

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
For Sliders Sunday this week I decided to dabble with an image of dried palm leaves, taken on a deserted beach On Skiathos island in Greece in May.
I didn’t really try anything new in the processing but it was an interesting image to play with, having lots of detail and structure. I’ll post a link to the initial processed image in the first comment.
Most of the effect was achieved using two copies of the original in layers, blending the top one with Negate blend mode and then using an Invert adjustment on the result. This, rather curiously, made the palm appear as if sunlight was behind it.
The rest was done by duplicating, flipping and blending it and then using a Mirror filter with two mirrors to create symmetry. Then followed a play with the colours and we were done.
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday :)

Hard to believe scenes like this are 16 years old. From my digital scans purchased slides.
Macro Mondays. This week's theme: #BackInTheDay
I remember clearly the days when the preferred mode of photography seemed to be Slides. The long wait before your slides arrived in the mail. Then the invitation of friends, snacks, drinks, the lights go out and the Slide Projector starts.... Good times. Images seemed to come alive on the big screen. I have heard stories about people dreading being invited to friends' Slide Nights but not me, I've always enjoyed them. I found this slide in the front yard! Brought back many memories. My own have sadly not survived the many country moves.
