There’s nothing like unwinding with a good book on a comfortable chair in beautiful light covered in a warm shawl.

Sometimes when I can’t get to sleep I get a little batty…

Yummy Crepe-4.jpgYummy Crepe-4

Becca and I had breakfast with Tay and Braden at the farmer’s market. I waited anxiously as my crepe was being prepared. I had eggs, bacon, and ham… All locally produced! This was incredibly delicious and salty…

So this is what a Raja (means king) chair looks like. Very very comfortable!

Stalking.jpgStalker

What else do you do when it’s just about midnight? I suppose the only person I’m really stalking here is myself. One of these days I’ll figure out what makes this guy tick. Until then, all I can do is keep watching and take note when he does something interesting.

Hairy Bokeh.jpgHairy Bokeh

Every now and then I get desperate for a shot of the day as I realize there is only an hour or two left in my day and I have no shot to take. I was actually trying to get a shot of Becca in this but having the 50mm on the camera and trying to aim down from up above is easier said than done.

Clear Care.jpgClear Care

Yes I am messing around with contacts again. After a three year hiatus from contacts I decided I’d try it again. Mainly because I didn’t want to be wearing glasses on my wedding day. After a couple weeks of trial lenses and some painful experiences I took the plunge and ordered myself a year’s worth of contacts. I have to admit, I’m really enjoying being able to look through the viewfinder without having to take my glasses out of the way.

Hail grown in Alberta.jpgHail Grown in Alberta

No, those are not white pebbles you are looking at in my planter box. That is tiny hail that stuck around while the bigger pieces had already melted off by the time I was brave enough to venture outdoors to take this shot. Us Calgarians got hit by two hail storms on the South end of the city, one right after another.
