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.
PWP week of Aug 27 – Sept 2 23
September has arrived. And it’s a warm. Combining is in full swing. A couple days of rest was has we had some rain. I’ve posted shots of the young hawk that has been sitting on the fence post. Then it move to the road and wouldn’t move when a car passed. It hadn’t been seen for sometime and I feared the worst but I finally saw him sitting in the field. I waited and then it flew away and I knew it would be fine. One of the pet stores I shop at has their Halloween costumes for pets out on display already. Some are cute. I don’t think my two would appreciate being dressed up. I stopped by the Water Fowl Park in the city one morning. City Canada geese are sure loud, aggressive and bossy. There were a few ducks but mostly geese. The pelicans were smart enough not to hang around the park. Chase has discovered looking out the upstairs bedroom window gives him a bird’s eye view. Got a few action shots of him. Of course! On one of the smoky days, there’s been quite a few, I caught a crop duster plane out desiccating fields. He comes in pretty low. Not sure what the trucker thought. As you will see, our house is prepared for the cold season. Hope you get out and enjoy the long weekend.

PWP week of Aug 13 – Aug 19 23
Another week in the books or photo album. No great features. Created an “on black” shot of Chase. He lays with his head on a paw and always looks so pensive. The route we take for our morning drive goes past the buffalo pasture so they are always reedy models. By the corner where we turn to come home there has been a young hawk for the past few days It’s not to sure about flying away from it’s perch and having me there drives mom crazy. She is in the air above me screaming. The last trip the youngster did move from one fence post to another. Saw an unrelated hawk on our drive one morning. More hummingbird shots. Some were taken with my phone thru the window. The purple wedding decorations were in a store I visited. Wonder if purple if THE color this year! One morning Chase tracked down a little muskrat. Removed Chase from the scene; caught the muskrat and carried it to the dugout and watched the little guy swim away. That was enough excitement at 6:30 in the morning for one day. More dog shots. Hope you enjoy this weeks contribution. For those of you who follow my posts, I try and have the content posted by 9:00 (CST) Sunday AM.

PWP Week of Aug 6 – Aug 12 23
This week was this Photographers dream week. Remember I talked about feast and famine? Well this was definitely a feast week. I attended a day of gymkhana and got shots of the stars of the arena. A few contestants also. The crops are turning fast and I love the variants in color. We have buffalo living close and we visited them a couple of times. Chase wasn’t impressed. We found a few bushes of buffalso berries. They make great jelly for pork! The hawk you will see is a very upset mother as her child just sat on a fence post as I approached. She was not impressed. One morning on our mini tour we saw a mule deer doe and her youngster. On the creek near home there is a congregation of pelicans and a couple of herons. Hope you enjoy this weeks offering as much as we enjoyed finding the shots. For those of you who follow my posts, I try and have the content posted by 9:00 (CST) Sunday AM.
