Welcome

After reading someone's goal of a photo a day, seeing some friends photo pages, and someone's photo blog, I wanted to create a collection of my own work. I love taking photos when I travel, on day trips, and of friends and family. I recently (July/07) found out I have taken over 9,200 which currently live on my computer. I want to keep collecting images that I find inspiring and share them with others.

Labour Day - Last Long Weekend for the Summer

I was so happy when I came home on Wednesday last week to be asked if I wanted to go camping on the long weekend. Without a moment's hesitation - YES! What a great weekend it was too. The weather was incredible and this was one of the few hot, sunny weekends we've had all summer. It's been incredibly wet and a little colder than the last few summers.
After a mad week of being busy and scrambling to get packed, we loaded the truck with bikes, hitched the trailer on and off we went north. The traffic was incredible for a long weekend and a Friday night to boot. After a short 2.5 hour ride we were in north country. In the middle of the bush and loving it. The mornings were full of mosquitos (and the dusk was too), the days were hot and sunny (and full of naps and reading) and the nights were filled with more stars than I have seen in a long time and several shooting starts.
A perfect end to a pretty great summer over all.
