My prayers have been answered!!!

We finally have snow down by the shore, and more to come this week. HUZZAH!

Until recently, I had to travel inland to get my snow fix. This video was shot in the hill/field behind my buddy's place. I like how you can see some snow flakes at the beginning.

I tried shooting this one handheld, so I could hold the camera close to the ground.

New school

At the time, I didn't think this would be my favourite shot of the set, I was wrong.

L'burg curling club on the left, community centre on the right, and the new school under construction in the middle. My hat goes off to the construction crew, they worked right through that recent bitter cold snap...handling metal. Brrrr...

'Sup? J.J., my friends' gorgeous Canadian (crossed with....can't recall) checking me out at their farm last weekend.

Meanwhile in Lunenburg...

This road is somewhat hidden, it makes for a nice walk at lunch. Nice to have these woods to walk through, always lots of deer hiding out down in the gulley at the bottom of the hill.

Here's a grayscale conversion of the same shot, which one do you prefer?

New school and old school

The Lunenburg Academy can be seen in the distance, while the new high school can be seen in the foreground, under construction.

They have made a lot of progress since I took this picture, more shots to follow...
