Warmth...

"smoking log" (Nikon CP5400)

Since today was such a wake up call to the cold weather that's coming our way, I figured I'd throw up a picture of some Summer warmth. This picture was taken in Algonquin Park and is of one of our first camp fires. Mmmm........marshmallow anyone?

Up Close..

"port hope crator" (Nikon CP5400)

Sometimes something as simple as a rock, or perhaps a dent in a rock, can be quite interesting to look at. The picture I chose tonight is a close up of a small crator I found while in Port Hope a few months back. The average person may have overlooked it, however, the textures and patterns it had were just too good to pass over!!

On My Way..

"road to adventure" (Nikon CP5400)

I spent most of the night tonight prepping some photos for an upcoming contest. I have never entered any contests before but, when faced with the opportunity I figure, what do I have to lose? Anyway, perhaps the picture I chose tonight represents a road to something good........I'm always up for adventure!

Dream Oasis

"australian oasis" (Nikon CP5400)

This is the kind of picture I would love to be able to walk into whenever I felt the need to get away. If only pictures had that transporting ability! Regardless, I find myself looking at it and thinking fondly of when I was actually there.

Hide & Seek

"hide & seek pigeon" (Nikon CP5400)

While walking under a bridge this weekend, it was funny to see the world that a number of pigeons had created for themselves underneath. In and out of the bridge they flew, poking their heads out intermittently to keep up with what was happening outside. See if you can spot the pigeon that was playing a wee round of hide and seek with me!

Something bright...

"desert rose" (Nikon CP5400)

I have to say that I am often drawn into bright and colourful subjects. Flowers always catch my eye! Tonight I have included a picture of a beautiful desert rose.

Looking Up....

"the art above" (Nikon CP5400)

Something you surely don't see very often is a ceiling completely covered with stained glass! Standing in the center of the Casa Loma Green room, I was enveloped by the beautiful work of art. Truly a sight to see should you get the chance to visit Casa Loma.

Drops of Water...

"after the rain" (Nikon CP5400)

I have always loved pictures that include droplets of water. It's the kind of thing where you either catch it or you don't. This picture was taken just after a massive rain shower. Rain drops or just any droplets of water, are always in the back of my mind so I will have more to share soon!

Standing Tall..........

"stretched hydrant" (Nikon CP5400)

Whether short and stubby, or tall and skinny, Fire Hydrants stick out wherever they are. It's interesting to note the "character" each takes within its surroundings. Such is the case with this one. This photo was taken in a small villa in Jamaica.

On a Roll.......

"devil's marbles - Australia" (Nikon CP5400)

I didn't realize how tough it would be to select a picture each night!! There are quite a few waiting in the wings, so please keep checking back! I am trying to post a new picture each day so that you can see what I've done and then eventually where I'm going.
The picture I chose tonight is of some of the "Devil's Marbles" in the Australian Outback. This was a great location for photographs and one that I had a lot of fun with!
