Playing in Beacon Hill Park

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. My camera was out of commission and I have beem busy with a course I'm working on. I've been meaning to post a picture of The Dancing Bean in Chemainus, B.C., where my show is on, for a while. I stopped by on my way back from Victoria today to take a picture. Chemainus is also famous for the wonderful murals depicting local history.


I've never seen this plant before and I had to capture it's beauty. I'm working on finding out what it is.
This handsome fellow was keeping an eye on what I was up to. I suspect he's posed for pictures before.


Spring.....glorious spring. finally. it was chilly and windy out today and the heartier people were out with kites down on Dallas Road. I prefered to quietly shoot pictures in the park.



I can't help but love the bright face of Spring Pansies...they just cheer me up.

Finally.. My Camera has been repaired

It couln't have happened at a better time. my camera broke down a few weeks ago, while I had visitors. I was worried that it wouldn't be fixed quickly and that I'd miss spring pictures this year. Thankfully they have phoned and told me that it is ready. Yeah !!! New pictures coming soon hopefully.

Spring

Spring is here. Blue skys, longer days and evening walks with the dog in beautiful evening light. I'm glad it is finally here. This is French Creek, a great place to walk, buy fresh fish, watch wildlife and eat.
This gorgeous willow is in Beacon Hill Park in Victoria. This is when I really enjoy the beauty of a willow just as it is breaking out into the early spring.
Looking forward to this butterfly bush welcoming friends to my backyard.


Spring....a time of new growth and renewal. wishing you all the best for Spring

I'm not going to set a date for my show coming down in Chemainus. It has been once again extended to the end of April. They have arranged a number of functions and have asked me to leave my work up. I am pleased as works have been selling.
