Hoar Frost Magic

We went to Kildonan Park for this shoot in the mid-morning after we awoke to hoar frost. It was a beautiful day to walk the park and we even ventured down onto the Red River. I also learned that there are several types of frost (Nat Geo has a nice article here on radiation frost, […]

Walking and Wondering

These images were taken in January 1,2021. They are from three of our walks. One was around our neighbourhood as we took in the sights of Christmas lights. Even with lifted spirits despite the cold and the lockdown, Covid-19 continued to make itself know. The sight of a discarded mask was heart breaking both in […]

Arrows Point the Way

A few images from Kejimkujik National Park in Nova Scotia. These were taken on the Gold Mine hiking trail. We found no gold, but, in an attempt to get a better picture, I may have stepped into an ant’s nest. -KMSB
