Well the time has come for winter in Saskatchewan. The temperature has fallen and the little rain we're getting is going to turn to the "S" word in the next few days. I've winterized the bike and placed it under it's tarp in the garage for another long nap, kind of like a fair weather friend I guess.
I've never been much of of winter person, and yes, I did pick the WRONG place to live. I should move back to the coast where it's much warmer, or at least the Okanagan valley somewhere. Janet could make her own wine and I could search for 'Ogopogo' for the next 50 years. You just never know what life will bring..
Image Making - We're ready for the WDM show & sale on Nov. 13 & 14th in Saskatoon. Make sure you get out to see all the artist's work that's for sale. The show is a great way to get some new pieces for your collection and to support the Boys & Girls Club in Saskatoon.
We've finalized the shots we're putting on display in 'The Center' mall starting on the 22nd of Nov. We selected more than we really wanted because you never know what will fit and what will look out of place. We plan on keeping it on the smaller side and only having about 6 items each plus a main piece.
Janet had to cut her first list down from 30 images and I had over a 100 to weed out, not easy when you love them all. As I try to shoot everyday, there was more stuff that I wanted to add just from my Sunday evening walk that did not make the cut....this time! (click or see bottom of blog for Flickr feed)
Remember, comments are always welcome. If you see something you don't like, tell me and when you see something you do like, tell me that as well.
Enough about Janet & I, some photog stuff...
Here is a site that I have used in the past when I have come across a problem and was unsure of how to take the shot or make the camera see what I see.
"Digital Photography School" has over 525,000 subscribers and once you sign up (free) you can plow through the forms and have just about every photo question answered. If you what to send in some shots to have critique, you can do that has well. I receive weekly "Digital Photography Assignments" and "How I took it" emails, these really help if you are feeling uninspired.
I have not tried everything on the site, but my experience so far is fantastic and I highly recommend joining.
Have a great week folks,
