A Time for Reflection

This past week has been a quiet one, a time for reflection. July 7th marked one year since my Dad died. We love you Dad and miss you terribly.

The week was not all tears though. The scale was balanced by two very positive events.

GALLERY EBA

I was delighted to have six of my images included in a photographic show at the EBA, a well known gallery in the Ottawa art scene.

PHOTOGRAPHY AT THE FARM

The second event was a photo shoot for some friends of mine at the Experimental Farm. They have two wonderful grandchildren who were a delight to photograph. It had been a long time since I was around little ones and these two, aged two and a half and one, were like little butterflies... only alighting for a second as they flitted around from one spot to another. Constantly in motion, they darted about checking out everything within running distance.

For the first time in many years, I too had the opportunity to check out cows, sheep, horses and rabbits; to walk in the park, smell the roses, and eat a few french fries that escaped becoming food for the gulls the little ones took great delight in chasing.
