Hue love Colours?





The summer excitement is upon me for full sun so heavy it almost possesses a liquidity in the evening dusk. It accentuates the colours and makes them seem saturated beyond the two dimensionality I normally find in photos.

today I will be happier than a bird with a french fry






This summer has so far been especially rainy and delightfully cool to my mind. I am not a fan of the dryness and prefer things to stay as green as possible for as long as possible. Bird action, particularly in my favourite Nanaimo garden, has been most interesting this year. Here are some shots of hummers, juncoes and finches. This Nanaimo garden happens to be one of the few places in Canada that hosts Anna's Hummingbirds year round. Anna's build their nests from spiderwebs and lichens/mosses and begin laying in February to get an edge on the Rufous Hummingbirds before they arrive from Mexico.

Apologies and Thankyous


I apologize for the hiatus. I thank you for following me still. A dark spot in February kind of slowed me down, but I am rebounding and the gift of a new and powerful lens (a Canon 1/400 telephoto) has accelerated the process. I have new photos to upload and share and I look forward to sharing them with you, beloveds.
