My husband’s grandfather is a expert violinist/fiddler, and we had the honour of attending his CD release party at The Commercial Tavern in Maryhill, Ontario.
The music was fantastic, the crowd was engaging, the energy was high and the food – excellent!

Ten months ago to the day, we had to say goodbye to one very special cat. Ever since he was put down, Dexter has been awfully lonely.
My brother started searching online for cats and kittens, and found one in Cambridge.
Saturday morning we drove down to go pick him up.
Adorable!

While looking for something specific in my grandma’s house a few weeks ago, my dad came across a rare photograph his dad took. On the back was written “1957″, and the photo lab stamp was from Park Photo Service in Cornwall, Ontario. (I wonder if they’re still in business?)
I think this is just fantastic. And adding to the excitement of the news that the Queen will be visiting Kitchener in July this year, it just seemed fitting that I share this now. I just hope to capture my own photo of royalty when they roll through the city!

It’s always, always a good day when I get to a nursery!
Mum wanted to shop for a few plants and flowers to spruce up their gardens around the house, and invited me along. What a bright sunny afternoon in the greenhouse. It was HOT.
I wasn’t planning on taking many photos, maybe just one or two since this visit was impromptu. But I just couldn’t help it. The colours, textures and compositions were presenting themselves to me every time I turned around.
In my bag I had only my 50mm f/1.8. It was all I needed to capture these images. Best lens* ever, baby.
View the set.
*Best is 1.4, which unfortunately I don’t have, so this is the best lens I currently own. :)

On April 24/10 while I was in Toronto for the NPA Conference, a friend of mine was hosting a charity event at Bread & Circus, and was looking for a photographer. Having nothing else to do after the conference, I volunteered. (Nice to finally meet you Reggy!)
Jason & Caroline Take On the Ride to Conquer Cancer!
A Northern Drawl, Carla Sacco & Neil Dirtyred Mooney were the performing artists, and they did a fantastic job keeping the crowd engaged & entertained.
Shortly after the event I learned that Jason & Caroline raised over $500 at the event, and over $5000 overall for their Ride. I wish you guys all the best in your quest!

I packed up our Christmas tree on New Year’s Eve. Mocha here seemed to give me the impression she was not happy with the situation, and that perhaps she would be packed up next.
Kitty cats are such curious creatures!

My mom found this photo I took in a stack of old prints.
I used to dress my dolls up and "pose" them all around the house. This picture was taken with my mom’s 35mm Vivitar (yes, I remember!) and I was 6 or 7. The only thing I don’t remember is if I purposely off-set the subject or not. Likely not, but it turned out alright for a dull morning without flash.
I would love to re-shoot this. Any purple-haired, glasses-wearing models out there? Anyone have a white wicker chair I could borrow?

The first weekend in May is the annual town-wide garage sale in Mannheim, Ontario. My husband & I spent a little more than an hour wandering the streets, looking for decent sales and things we needed (and perhaps, things we didn’t). On our way back to the car, I found what I really wanted. Unfortunately, I could only assume it was going to be out of our price range.

I’m starting a new series of clouds. Here is the first entry, taken on April 27/10.
I call these “The Simpsons” clouds.
