Time is fleeing and tomorrow my big munchkin is returning to school. Very mixed feelings about it but oh well...it is what it is at least for now ;)
Enjoyed every moment of this winter break. Hope you have done so as well ;)
Most times I dont mind that at all during my walks though ;) It gives me that much needed peace that I need every once in a while.

ScotiaBank discourages photography in its historic head office banking hall in Toronto's financial district. But its magnificent clock, one of the Art Deco era icons of Bay Street, can be glimpsed from the street (reflections and all ;-) through the bank's signature doors adorned with sculpted tulips. Processed in PS.

OK, the lawn is getting reall desperate now, it's not just daisies, but dandelions as well! Oh well.
I know this is a shot I've done a few times before, but I just love these plants and they do look good in black and white (or I think so)
This charming little tick managed to embed itself in my neck! I'd like to say that I released it safely , back into the wild after the photoshoot, but I'd be lying :-)
Face, feet, and top knot, have now been cleaned up. Yayyyy Hard for me to learn to do. Love my iPhone, but wish it took indoor shots as well as my old BlackBerry did.

I was happy to see this huge lawnmower cleaning up the tall grass along the road. Ticks hide in it and when you walk your dog the tick will wait for the dog to brush up against the weeds and the tick will grab on to the dog. Thanks for the info. Jeff.
A tick found on an evening walk in a... monastery garden. :)

Don't like them, but have to admit to these being quite attractive ones! Think they are Dermacentor sp.
Fortunately, I wasn't bitten during this trip!

Unfortunately these little buggers seem to be a constant annoyance these days. Where i live, north of Glasgow, they appear to be everywhere, even in local parks where grass is left to grow.
Warning signs are appearing in many places now, alerting folks to the risk of lymes disease so it's clearly on the rise.
There are many factors being blamed on the rise from milder winters, rise in deer populations and the ban of organophosphates as a pesticide in sheep dips but one thing is for sure, they are are horrible!
Tried to capture a calm forest scene. Yet, I was really in a rush because at least three moskitos were biting me while taking this shot. I also found two ticks after I returned from the forest.
Macro Mondays Theme: As long as it ticks
Didn't have much time this week so not anything particularly imaginative I'm afraid. Would have loved to do a long exposure but discovered all the girls watches needed new batteries and the working watches and clocks didn't have a second hand!!
HMM and thanks for looking!
I had posted this photo a while back on Flickr and called it "Tick- Tock" as it reminded me of the gears in a clock.
I thought it would be appropriate for this weeks Macro Monday Theme- anything that" ticks"so I am posting it again, all be it late... I have run out of time . HMM to all!
explored, thanks all :)

it got up to 80 today and i basically risked my worst fear, aka getting a tick, by going into the woods. i saw one on my tripod. and that's when i decided it was time to leave, haha.
Also this is the day I lost my remote, yet the day I uploaded my most popular picture to flickr.
