The roundness of the plant pot for my snake plant. I can admit, as much as I love photographing plants in nature, I don’t exactly have a green thumb! Snake plants are so generously forgiving for that ;) They work well in our home. Ironically, our last name also means snake, so perhaps just fitting!Continue reading “How to Survive November 2025 | 16”

By far, as much as I love my 5DMIII, this camera, my Canon R6MII is by farContinue reading “How to Survive November 2025 | 15”

The sky was gorgeous this morning, along with the frosty leaves. My creative mind is going for what I could shoot with my macro lens this weekend! I am also excited as Saturday’s a new weekly challenge is announced within the wordpress Lens-Artists challenge! Taken in portrait mode on my phone.

Its winter time, which means hockey is back on the ice for our girl – for the final year! My heart is more at ease knowing that our niece and nephew will be participating in their own upcoming sports, so the lens will not be going into retirement anytime soon!

My round theme for today is with my singing bowl. Its the colour of the solar chakra. There is a lot of calming benefits to the singing bowls – think relaxation, an energy reset, can also help in sleep – which makes sense being relaxing. I am still learning about these bowls, one thing IContinue reading “How to Survive November 2025 | 13”

One of my most favourite round things that came into our life at the perfect time. Essential oils have truly changed the atmosphere of our life, the smells in our home, typically the diffuser (or the teens downstairs). The best part though, the medicinal benefits. These beautiful oils that go in this diffuser not onlyContinue reading “How to Survive November 2025 | 12”

Mount Forest Remembrance Day Parade 2025

This year my husband felt privileged to be a part of the Remembrance Day Parade in town. As a veteran. I am grateful that both myself and our daughter, with school, could also be there and timing worked out perfect to grab a photo with our son after the ceremony. There is a lot ofContinue reading “Mount Forest Remembrance Day Parade 2025”

Holstein Remembrance Parade 2025

This is my husbands first Remembrance Day as a Legion Member with our local branch. I was lucky to get to photograph this. For them and for me/us. My husband recently joined our local legion branch. As a proud Veteran, he had thought about this and the timing was now. He joined this fall andContinue reading “Holstein Remembrance Parade 2025”

Macro Monday | 1st Snowfall

1st snowfall of the winter of 2025-2026 was this weekend, much less than they forecasted, thankfully! A reminder, the cold is coming, a time to retreat for many, once the snow is here to stay I love getting out and capturing the beauty and purity of a snow covered scene.
