Time Is Like Sand In An Hour Glass ~ Slips Through Your Fingers


It's hard to believe that the last time I posted here on my blog was June the 6th....now it's the end of July!!  Sigh** Time simply gets away from you doesn't it.  Since the 6th of June our family has relocated from Saskatchewan back into Beautiful Victoria B.C.  I've gotten back into the Hospital system and I'm now working as hard as ever..LOL  I've also been busy with my photography, and I've posted some new images today.  If you follow my work, you will see these images on Facebook; Redbubble; Viewbug and even Flickr.  I hope all of you enjoy these new images and I promise to keep my blog more up to date :)

Love For Our Feather'd Friends


I don't know about you but I simply love birds and now that Spring is officially here on the Prairies I've had the opportunity to get outside quite a bit lately, and I've managed to get some images of allot of different varieties of bird species.  I hope you enjoy this post as much as I do... :)

Moving Back To Victoria B.C ~ Excited!

Well after three years of living on the Prairies, we are moving back to Victoria B.C! "There's No Place Like Home" 
 I never thought I would be the one to say that I've taken things for granted...but in this case I certainly did.  In my heart I'm an ocean kinda girl who loves the mountains; large trees; PLENTY OF RAIN;  the smells of dampness while walking through thick forests floors, and the diversity that living in one of the world's miniature rain forests has to offer a person's soul on a daily basis.  That's what I'm moving back too....I can hardly wait.  To Celebrate I've posted two images that are originally from Victoria B.C "Perched" and "Sweet Nectar"  The image of  "My One Legged Friend" was taken here in Wilcox Saskatchewan...wonderful little capture of a male robin working hard to get his nest built.  Even with only one leg to stand on!

My Hand At Black N White

I've always admired the look of a Black N White image, and thought I would try my hand at a couple of images for a photo contest on Viewbug.  You just never know if what you've done and or created will be well received  but you can't win if you don't try.

New And Exciting Collage Images

Here are the latest and greatest image designs, and I really had fun putting them together.
First Image:

I had a brainstorm last night and thought why not use my Wedding Dress and accessories to create a wonderfully feminine image. I really love how it turned out and for those of you who are about to get married I hope this lovely image puts a smile of anticipation on your face.

For those of you who like me have been married for awhile and your dress is tucked away …may this bring back beautiful memories of your special day.


Second Image:

I simply love birds and I do manage to get some decent images of them (They are few and far inbetween) I simply want to display them to everyone.  I hope you like this different perspective of how I display a collage piece.

Collage In Soft Colors

Well over the last few days I've had a small brain storm in regards to putting together a Collage style, that has the softness of combining images with out the harsh boarders you usually see in a typical Collage. In the two image below you can see a distinct style in the type of work that I do.  I love a cohesive image that can tell you a story OR simply appealing enough to admire.

Busy Busy ~ Sunday Magic


Hello long time no hear!!  LOL  Well what can I say at this point but, I've been busy working hard to get my work out there on the NET!  So here's a run down of what I've been up too:
  • I've updated my Twitter Account and I've included a follow me button here on my Blog.
  • I've joined Redbubble, so if your looking for a more economical way of purchasing my Art this is the place to purchase it.  
  • I've created a website through facebook and  here's the link: http://4f548597-5195-47d5-82fa-e91a86d8ac37.3.exai.com/
  • I'm also on Pintrest; Flickr; Viewbug and DiviantArt.
So ya CRAZY...but I have a dream that I want to fulfill and in order to do that I need to get myself out there. So with moving forward I recognize that  my goals, ambitions and dreams in my life's path requires extra work and some magic.......so lets add some magic into the mix shall we.  Who do you know that doesn't like some magic in their every day lives...I know I love the possibilities that everyday can be magic if we really want it to be.

I Awoke To Hoar Frost

 
This morning I awoke to Hoar Frost..yep Saskatchewan is still in winter's Grasp.  The hoar frost was so beautiful I ran out in my PJ's with my hair sticking in all directions to get some images before the winds blew the frost off.  I've also included an image of some Violets that I took on Saturday...I'm so desperate to see some life that I thought I would buy a plant that always blooms into our home.  So for those of you in Canada that are experiencing Spring...how nice for you and yes I'm jealous!

Beauty In the Smallest Of Things

 
Insects you either hate them or love them.  I on the other hand think they are amazing,  they are so important to our environment that I shutter at the thought of the world without them.  I have some special preferences of course and I really do love Butterflies; Ladybirds; bees and Dragonflies. Now do you have a favorite insect?

Winter Simply Won't End ~ Prairie Blues

Well the weekend started off warm and glorious, I could actually here the snow and ice melting.  Glorious sound...the sound of winter melting.  Alas though this was extremely short lived and yesterday afternoon it started to snow, which then turned into a blizzard!  Needless to say that the highways leading out of Regina today were nasty,  with reports that recommended that travel wasn't advisable.  So to cheer myself up yesterday I did some editing and these images are the end result of some time well spent.  I'm really pleased with how they turned out and I feel that the textures that I used in these images really brings out that little extra that gives each image their own unique Artist Flair.
 
Enjoy!

Who Can Resist Beautiful Flowers

Well as I sit here and watch the snow fall outside..yes you heard right it's snowing yet again.  Saskatchewan is being hit yet again with a small winter storm...we've had snow now since mid October of last year; so at this point I just want Spring to get here already.
So in order to get past the wintetr blues, I thought I would post some lovely flower images today.
Enjoy

Animals Come In All Sorts Of Sizes

Hello everyone!
I've decided to post a variety of animal images; from the very small to large.  Although size is only relative to it's surroundings right?  The only reason I'm saying this is because in the Dog World my miniature Dachshund isn't considered to be a large animal, but if you put her image among smaller animals than herself...when then she's HUGE.. LOL
I hope you enjoy these images of:
  • White Cabbage Butterfly
  • Miniature Dachshund
  • Male Yellow Warbler

As much as I miss home (Victoria B.C)  the Prairies offers all kinds of photo opportunities to capture that lovely rustic look, and then to add layers of textures with the image just enhances that old world feel.  Of course that's only my point of view :)  Below you will see two old barns, one image I took at a farm and the Gray barn is actually on the property that we currently rent.  I would have to say that the Gray image is my personal favourite.
Now the last image is a picture I took at UVIC in their beautiful gardens.  This was a personal favourite place to go after a long day's work to down load and watch for birds to come and drink/bathe.

Rain Drops

 
I don't know about you, but nothing beats how the air smells and how the world around you is clean and fresh looking after a good rain fall.
I hope these images reflect for you what our world looks like after a good rain.
Enjoy :)
