Self Imagined as Tulip

Exhausted today, limp as this tulip. But still swine-flu virus free.

Trees Bent By Wind

So dull today. It looked like all the colour had been leeched out of the landscape.

Split Wood

Gorgeous light on this pile of split wood in the early evening.

Through the Sun Roof

Snapped in the lot at Canarama.

Signs of Spring

Muddy paws are a less welcome sign of spring. The snow may be gone, but clods of mud are dotted around the house.

sNOw

It was looking a lot like Christmas on Friday afternoon.

Signtastic

Information overload at the local ATM.

Carnation

Colours looked amazing in the late afternoon light.

Darby Snoozing

Check out what he's using for a pillow.

Tulip

Construction

Building site on Broadway.

Samsara

My new handbag has a stronger set of ethics than its owner. Although we are both equally bilingue.

Jug

Detail from an early twentieth-century pottery jug. Location: ma chambre a coucher.

Last of the Snow

It rained a bit here over the weekend and almost all the snow is gone, except this little bit tucked away in the corner.

Dogs Sleeping

Thumper gets the pillow.

Vitamin E

The capsules glow like something out of Aladdin's cave.

Court House

Yellow Rose

Prosperity Corner

Shot at the Saigon on 33rd after lunch.

Darby

He likes to sleep vaary close to the bed.

Tree and Windchime

Shadow on Spadina

I thought there was something vaguely Disney-ish about this shadow, in a post-modern way.

Lake Alexandra

There is a situation in the backyard. The house isn't flooded yet but the patio is swamped. Yay spring.

Blue at Rest

Blue sleeping on the new duvet cover, which she has yet to shred. But if and when she does, I'm only out twenty bucks. I found it in the clearance bin at Home Outfitters.

Rose Hearts

Genie

Genie, sleeping comfortably after a week's worth of drama

Celebration

One of the grandkids feeling festive.

Morning Visitor

When I let Genie out, this doe was walking down the lane.

Windmill

Really, really tall.

Tree

This tree is very Ansel Adams-esque in this light.

Genie

Genie feeling much better than she has in awhile.

Deer

Lots of deer hanging about. This isn't the best shot, but it is the best shot I took that day if you follow me.

Canadian Flag

It was a winter wonderland when I went out this morning.

Drip-cicle

All sorts of interesting shapes have formed out here as a result of snow melting and dripping down where it freezes again.

St Patricks Day

Not only did I receive two awesome drawings from my nieces today, but also my mom made a fine Irish meal. This is colcannon: cabbage, potatoes, leeks and mmm-mmm-mmm.

Gallery Shot

I hung some of my pictures today. Fiddly work.

Woodstock

What is discretionary about letting one's child play with plastic bag? Srsly.

Blue and Darby

Today was a busy and awful day, so the dogs spent an unusual amount of time on the landing.

Skull Beneath the Skin

Spotted this on the way to plugging my meter. It looked like the car's skeleton was peeking out from its split skin.

Flames

I know the custom of flying one's colours has deep roots in our culture; nevertheless, all I wanted to do was rip this damn thing off its mount and let it fly far far away. It was distracting or perhaps I was overreacting. One of the two.

Lawson

By no means a memorable shot, but if you've waited for a parking spot to open up at the LBS it is one you know all too well.

Persian Lilies

Random blurry shot one takes at the end of the day when one forgets to earlier.

Blue

It looks very relaxed, but Blue is doing her level best to distract me from my stitching.

Snow on Tarp

Just one of those things I see every day.

Park View

Sunshine

The filing cabinet in my office has a name, and it is Sunshine.

View from Broadway

Much photographed but lovely nonetheless.


And in the opposite direction.
