Whistler, Canada is heaven on earth.

Beauty abounds,

everywhere

that you look.

Fog added a twist of mystery and beauty to my ski trip today.

Bird’s nest in a winter tree

Stopped at a light one day,

I noticed a bird’s nest,

balanced at the top of a tree.

I woke up early

traveled by bus

by plane

and then I was home again.

Queen Anne Avenue

Here’s a classic Seattle scene, driving up the Queen Anne Avenue hill.

My Prius likes to slowly ascend this hill

giving me time to survey the sights

and snap a picture

or two.

Swiss chard

Happy New Year! Don’t forget to eat plenty of swiss chard in 2012.

Chard is high in vitamins A, K, and C.

Crossed lines

Whenever I go to Seattle my eyes drift upwards to see all the wires overhead. I find all these lines mesmerizing.

Do we need them all? What would happen if I got out my eraser and erased a few?

Photography today

When I was a kid, cameras were large and film was expensive. I used chemicals to develop pictures and spent many hours in a dark room.

Now, my camera is small and it’s also a phone.

My daughter…

snapped this cool picture:

(and I digitally tweaked it a bit).

And the best part is… I never had to say – ‘What are you doing? You’re wasting film.’

Digital photography lets everyone be creative and take a zillion pictures. What an amazing time we live in!
