Massive waterfall!

Ok, it wasn't so massive, actually only about 12 inches high but I got as low as possible to make it look like more.

Downtown walkabout

Recently me and the family decided to head to downtown Toronto for church and then some lunch.  Crazy to be so close to TO but not venture into the beast very often.  Anyway, we had a great time wandering around and had lunch at Mr. Greenjeans, a place we have been to in at least 20 years!

Changes around here

Well, it looks like I might as well change the focus of the site to be about photography since everything I have posted recently has been about...photography. :)  I am completely hooked on it and want to share some of my work, ideas and editing thingies.  I am a complete amateur but am loving it and basically want to journal my growth.

If you are so inclined, hang out and read the posts when you can.  I think growth of any talent is an interesting thing to watch and as I practice and learn (and fail!) and grow I hope to make it interesting for others as well.  While the road to becoming an accomplished photographer stretches infinitely far for me still, I am enjoying the ride and can see the difference from my rearview mirror to my front windshield.

I just love a good sunset!
