Behold the Night Sky

Three photography outings in one day - what a great way to start the New Year! We rose early enough to photograph the first sunrise of 2014. After lunch, we walked the main pathway between Three Sisters and the Canmore townsite to photograph the Bow River valley. Following supper, we headed out through our back …

Another Night Photography Outing

On January 5, 2014April 17, 2014 By GeoKsIn PhotographyLeave a comment

The evening of the seventh day of our Christmas break, we headed outside after dark, camera equipment in hand, for another attempt at night photography. We headed to a slightly different location than Christmas night, one that still offered a great view of the Three Sisters. Once again, Mr. GeoK aimed his camera towards the …

Silent Night

We enjoyed a beautiful display of coloured light as the sun came up on Christmas Day. Following our Christmas Eve turkey dinner with extended family, we relaxed with the other Grandma and Grandpa GeoK on Christmas Day - playing cards, visiting, baking a couple of kinds of cookies, listening to Christmas music and sharing memories …
