Enjoying our Bubble

All photos taken on November 13, 2021. To say we are living on borrowed time in this part of the world might be an understatement right now. There we sat, out on the back deck, in shirt sleeves (well, at least me), enjoying an icy beverage. The temperature on November 13 rose to +9 C

Nature’s Palette

All photos taken during our August 17, 2021 hike in Bunchberry Meadows/Tucker’s Field. This fall-like walk seemed to be the perfect time and place to play around with the palette setting on my camera.

Road Trip – Downtown Victoria

All photos taken on September 22, 2021, during our brief visit downtown to walk along the seawall. In truth, we did not do downtown Victoria justice during this walk.

Due to current Covid restrictions and concerns, we had not eaten in a restaurant in Alberta since August 2020. We did dine-in twice during our July 2021 trip to B.C. and felt comfortable enough to

Road Trip – Finnerty Gardens – Leaves

All photos taken September 20, 2021, during our walk in Finnerty Gardens, Victoria, B.C. As a photographer, I was in my element here and the slower pace required to push Fada’s wheelchair, allowed me to take photos and still keep up. I will let the following photos speak for themselves.

Anointed

All photos taken on November 4, 2021. There had been a big to-do on the news about a solar prominence over the next few days which would result in increased appearances of the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) in our area. We watched the Aurora Watch site and waited for advice that it was happening, all
