Busy Photowalk Day

Today is one busy day taking photos. Our photo group is having their monthly photo walk along the North Saskatchewan River Valley. This time of year, the scenery is drab and with today being cloudy, it was somewhat of a challenge. The first photo made me think about how scary this place could be at night..

                                     "Shall we go out into the woods today?"

 

Great display of Bracket fungus

 

All is Bright on 124 is a winter festival put on by the businesses on 124 St in Edmonton as a kick off to winter and was my second photo walk stop of the day.

 

Lots of great Entertainment

 

               These people are promoting the Canoe Festival which is held in Feb.

 

 Fire Dancers are always a crowd pleaser

 

Business' were strutting their decorating talents.

 

A really FUN event!

 

 

A Night of Light

Having a little fun with the Light Painting Group
                            
                                 "Oh Xmas Tree" (Using DIY saber light)

 

Looks like an umbrella ( Burning steel wool)

 

Holding a blue light while spinning the wool.

 

Xmas lights - set WB to tungsten to eliminate some of the noise caused by the

City Lights

                             We started adding a little lighting to the trees

 

Did I say I could draw? Used a white string of Christmas Lights.

Elk Island & Super Moon

                              What a way to start the Day - Telford Lake

Then a beautiful Day at Elk Island National Park. The Bison were very active today.

The Beavers are busy getting ready for winter and were popping up through the ice like the game "Wack a Mole". So cool to be there to experience this event.

This particular Super Moon is apparently the closest it has been in 70 years. Catching the pine tree silhouette was a bonus.

Pre Super Moon

The night before the Super Moon from my apartment. Shorty after this photo, it disappeared into the clouds.

Lest We Forget!

                                        Thank you to All those who Serve!

A day at the Edmonton Zoo

The weather has been fantastic - today 17degrees C. I thought I should take advantage. Got a lucky shot with "Lucy" our elephant. The sea otters are checking her out.

 

 

 

The "Eyes" have it.

 

"Hoo you lookin at?"
