Exploring Winter and a New Lens

I have been ignoring my website and haven’t really gotten into the blog thing, but I have seven days off of work and thought I would make a couple posts. After a recent upgrade in camera gear I have been thinking of upgrading to a couple different lenes. After ordering and receiving it last week I finally was able to get out and play yesterday. I decided to head to Westfraser Timber Park to see what I could find. Birds were quiet, but the touch of frost, snow and rendments of summer made lovely caputures for the day.

Tranquility at Huble Homestead

I visited Huble homestead a couple weeks ago, until recently I’ve never been there. Now it is one of my favourite places to stop and wander. I always find something different to look at. The first day I went it was pouring rain good thing I went out and got an umbrella that morning. On the drive-in I had some curious cows that looked like they wanted to say “hi.” It looks like the rain was not gonna let up for the day so hung out with the old farm machinery. As I was walking around the grounds making my way back to the car a small hawk flew over and took a look to see what I was. I decided to go back the next day as the weather had improved. It was so quiet. The sky was so moody. I’m so very glad I went back. Enjoy the step back into time.

Graffiti at the Rivers Edge

During my couple days in Prince George. I was waiting to go for lunch and found super lovely McMillan Creek Fishing Park to explore. This was a super unexpected surprise. I was able to go down to the river and the signage explaining all the work that had gone into restoration of McMillan Creek. The graffiti and structures were great for pics. I will for sure go back and walk the river bank.

It’s a Win for the Quesnel River Rush

Another great game!! This was my second time hanging out on the bench taking images of all the action. Covering hockey has been a bit of a learning curve with the fast unpredictable action and inside lighting. As I learn more about the game it will become easier to predict where I need to catch the great shots. As with all my events I love to be a fly on the wall catching the emotion and the story that goes along with the action. Check out the the attached link to see the complete collection of images for the evening. Enjoy!! https://www.flickr.com/gp/200165068@N04/C8qc0s3y78

The Fellowship

I was able to attend last nights KIJHL Junior A hockey game between the Quesnel River Rush and the Osoyoos Coyotes. I totally love the banter sitting on the bench and watching all the heart these young men have for hockey. This pic has become one of my favourites after a brief look through the over 1400 snaps for the evening. Stay tuned for more images of the game.
