Photo Blog Challenge – February 2015 – Winter
Hello Photo Blog Challengers:
This is my first post of the five photos taken this month on the theme Winter. I hope I figure everything out ok and can visit your photos to enjoy and get some inspiration. In love and light Cheryle
Cat and Bird tracks shadow the snow
Black and scruffy a black feral cat
Monk like she does alms rounds
Silent and unseen unless siting in the sun
Meditating
Generous with gratitude
She gifted us a fresh caught mouse
Winter water silently slips through icy snow
Famous for trout
Fishers cast into the bow
As it meanders through the city
Quadrants north and south divided
Rafters, kayakers, surfer too
Yes, surfers recent since the flood
Enjoy blue refreshment from the summer sun
Fence links
Repetitive texture
Shows snows
Sensual nature
Winter a romantic season
Ice clings to the branches beautifully
Canopy the road perfectly
Accenting the wooden stairs
Tire tracks crisp and stark
Sharp against the smooth softness of snow

So terrific that another Calgarian has discovered PJ’s photo blogging challenge. I enjoyed the original poetry that accompanied the photographs, especially the one about the Bow River. Welcome aboard!

OK, not only did you take beautiful pictures, but you wrote beautiful words too! You so get bonus points! The cat and bird tracks are really intriguing to me… I hope the birdy got a away! And the winter water is just stunning.

Beautiful photographs. I really like that you did both wide scenes and detailed closeups. I especially like the photo of the stream with the city in the background.

The shot of the path and the trees, with the stairs in the background is nice! I also really like the shot of the water and the cityscape in the background. Both are well composed and very interesting! Well done!

Thank you for your kind words of support. The park with the wooden stairs are part of the neighbourhood landscape. I think they look so beautiful in the winter. The bow river picture was taken while I was a passenger and I did what I call “Drive by Shooting Photography”. I am so glad the camera captured what I was seeing. In love and light Cheryle

You definitely captured winter well with your photos. That one of the winter scene with the steps in the background is really nice. I like that tire track one, too. Good job with it this month!
