Love that Lawson Heights Mall has nixed the Santa photographer

and lets you just bring your own camera and get the shots you want.

day 56...10-28-09

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.
Hello lamppost,
What cha knowing?
I've come to watch your flowers growing.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo,
Feelin' groovy.

Got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,

All is groovy.

day 53...10-25-09

shot while waiting for a train, a very long train.  You would think leaving the dugout during flooding would be obvious, but apparently not.

day 36...10-08-09

hello winter, we meet again...

day 30...10-02-09

Some days the only shot I get is what I can take on my way to someplace else...I wonder where the dog is going?

day 15...09-17-09

The Claw!

I giggle when I see these machines, thinking of those little green guys from Toy Story (seen it about a zillion times) all excited to be the chosen one, lifted to freedom and a new home.

day 13...09-15-09

I shot this on my way out of the library tonight after Camera Club. It's not a super strong photo by any means but I shot it with "my purse camera" and I posted it more because I saw an opportunity and I stopped to capture it, rather than letting it pass by and that is one part of the whole lesson to be learned by this project .




Shot this one just cause it made me laugh, another random opportunity. She was set up on the grassy meridian just outside the Tim Horton's on 8th St. reading a book and enjoying her timmies. Right after this I witnessed a nearly massive accident. I was in the passenger side and had my camera on and in my hand with the window rolled down, as a car turned left in front of us on College Dr. on to Preston and was almost t-boned by the car in the lane to the left of us. I watched in slow motion as the the car beside me missed the other car by mere feet. I was paralized and did not get the near miss shot, but the whole time I was wondering if I would be in the right place at the right time to shoot the impact and the aftermath if it happened... nope not this time, thankfully. It would have been nasty.

day 10...09-12-09

I tried for a landscape, I really did. I shot a few, but I just like the close up stuff better. This is a rail, you know train tracks.


just thought I'd add this one because it's amusing, at least to me it is.
