Patterns

Everything was so blue up in Calgary and BC, that I tried to find things with interesting patterns or colours.

Peaks

Just a sample of more peaks from my Calgary/BC trip.

I like this one because it makes the hill look like a miniature model.

Beach

Gonna hit the beach this weekend.
Why?
Because it's been a long time, and my nostrils are clogged with pollution.

secret spot

Ok, well not so secret, but it was found partly by memory, and perhaps a little bit of luck. If you drive up the coast there is a water fall that spills into a small cove. The view is nice.

backlog

Due to my laziness I've accumulated a backlog of photos, so I'll be posting in twos or threes now.

These are from the same trip up the coast.

white on green


Ireland 2007, originally uploaded by akim_hobo.

Ok so it looks more like puke green, but I think that has something to do with the late afternoon sun that was streaking through the valley at the time. I though it would be a nice break from all the white on blue I've been posting lately. Oddly enough, this was also taken out of a moving car. Maybe I should start a blog just on that.

Tilted

Sure it's tilted, off center, blurry. That's what you get when you take a picture out of a rapidly moving car. The sky was so perfect and the trees so generously holding onto their dustings of snow that I had to give it a try.

This was on our way back to Calgary from Kicking Horse.

Kicking Horse


20080217_lakelouise_kicking_081, originally uploaded by akim_hobo.

I have to say, out of all the different ski resorts I've been to. Kicking Horse in BC has got to have one of the most consistently beautiful views. I had to ski like a little girl for most of the day to avoid landing on my camera gear, but it was worth the captures.

By "little girl" I of course mean, "awesome little girl"
