A Challenge

If you are familiar with Facebook, you will have seen the challenges people send out — post a photo each day for ten days and nominate another person to do the same each day. I usually avoid these as I don’t have ten people to nominate. A friend approached me about doing this and she agreed that I could post the ten photos without nominating anyone. Here are the ten photos that I posted.

Last day of the year. A year that went by very fast. This weeks post has a bit of everything. More Christmas, the last of the year. Last of the year of everything. Dogs, trees, frost, whole moon. Finally learnt how to take decent shots of the moon. Even got a shot of it while I was in the city. We had frost yesterday, it painted everything white. Made plain old barb wire knots look pretty good. The end of the year means a new calendar for 2024. I’ve included the shots we will get to look at monthly for a whole year. The end of the year also means the end of my weekly posts. 52 weeks 52 posts. I’d like to thank everyone who came along with me for the ride.

PWP week of Dec 17 – Dec 23

We are having such beautiful weather it feels like Easter not Christmas. Are you ready for the day? I enjoy seeing all the different ways and decorations on display this time of year. A small town Saskatchewan has a wonderful light display. The night I went in not all the lights were turned on. Josie and Chase took time to pose for a Christmas picture. Maybe next year’s Christmas card? I caught one of Chase sleeping, as he breathed, his whiskers moved. Horses eyes are truly windows to the soul, I enjoying capturing them. The last photo before Christmas is one of Bandit dressed for the season. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas.

Another week had flown by, leaving me in the dust. This week we have another assortment. Christmas shots of course. And dogs. Megs came to visit and Josie proved to be an excellent babysitter. She has her babysitting certificate and is working hard to be the top of Santa’s good list. Presents arrived and one had Snoopy wrapping paper. It is a really good description of winter fun. Took my camera to town one afternoon and cruised main street. Also found a really good use to old tractor tires. Never know what I’ll find. Enjoy. For those of you who follow my posts, I try and have the content posted by 9:00 (CST) Sunday AM.

HO HO HO it’s that time of year. Christmas is in full glory every where you go. Visited a festival of trees. Put my name in to win one I really liked but Lady Luck wasn’t with me. A few days later I toured around a Christmas village. That was my week. No dogs, no skies and no horses. Enjoy!

PWP week of Nov 26 – Dec 2 23

Welcome to December. One month left in the year. Kind’ve scary! Not many shots this week but I get E for Effort and I didn’t dip into the Archives! Kathy decided she could pose for me. Nice to still see the grass and not banks of the white stuff. Once again the skies are putting on a great show. A wintery shot of the beaver house. Of course I had to get one Christmas photo in. Likely be more next week. Enjoy! For those of you who follow my posts, I try and have the content posted by 9:00 (CST) Sunday AM. Click on the image and then right click to move thru the gallery.

PWP Nov 19 – Nov 25 2023

I had the camera out a bit this week. The pups had their 3rd birthday so photos were a must. They’ve sure changed. All grown up, so fast. We had two huge Rottweilers visit one morning. Guess they were out for a tour. Thank goodness Chase respects his boundaries, and the visitors stayed on the road. They found their way home. While at the pet store one day, I saw that a Pet had taken her owner over to stock up on supplies. Either that or the Pet was driving the getaway car! A few mornings have been foggy hence the pretty trees. Spent some time at Agribition and saw part of the heavy horse pull. There was only 3 teams competing, and one was out when I got their. Once again the sky was beautiful. Such vivid colors. I spent a bit of time practicing post editing skills with a beautiful doll. More practice is needed.

PWP week of Nov 12 – Nov 18 23

This week’s content is a bit different. Still my photos but they are photos from previous years. The photos here are shots used for calendars for bygone years. Hence the fancy borders. It was bitter sweet going thru the files. Brought up lots of memories, some of them sad as I still really miss my four legged friends. We had a lot of good times. The shots with all the numbers on the bottom, are from my trusty assistance the trail camera. I did use my camera this week but the shots I got were Christmas decorations and no matter how the stores think, I think it is to early for Christmas content. Enjoy!

PWP week of Nov 5 – Nov 11 23

The days, weeks are just clicking by. The weather has been exceptionally mild which makes everything better. Except, rain in November is never nice. The roofing we have on our house/barn grows some really long icicles and icy patches on the step which i discovered last night. All is good just a bit tender. Another thing I discovered yesterday, not only is Chase a good model, his beautiful coat makes an awesome back ground. Jewelry and treasures always are fun to preserve. I captured a pretty young lady out with her pup this week. I have a plant in the south winter I’m trying to keep healthy til spring. So far so good. Once again my assistant the trail camera was on the job and caught the coyote as he went thru the pasture.  For those of you who follow my posts, I try and have the content posted by 9:00 (CST) Sunday AM.

I hope everyone had a fun safe Halloween. This week is another mixed bag. Weather wasn’t great. We had sun, freezing rain, fog and snow. Time to set up Studio 13. I’m not a cold weather kind’ve gal. The magpie and coyote were taken by my assistant the Trail Camera. Hope you enjoy this weeks’ offering.
