March Moments As we near the end of March the scene is very different to the same time last year. I am so glad that Easter is later this year. I usually have an abundance of plant material to use for decorating both my front porch and the Easter dining table, however, the garden […]
Just a short post today as my husband and I are heading out on another adventure. Rather than posting more photos of snow, the New Year depicts to me new beginnings. What I look forward to the most is the signs of new growth in the garden once the snow has melted. The photos above […]
Dec 2016 Winter Descends on the Fintry Delta 2016 Spring/Summer Moments 2016 Another year has gone by and I always like to review highlights of the garden year and my photography exploits which went beyond just floral. Here are some of my favourite memories. I always look forward to spring as it is a […]
BLAZE OF YELLOW LEAVES This is my favourite time of the year to capture the essence of fall in Fintry Provincial Park. I have a particular walk I go on each day and I spent a good couple of hours this morning taking photos of scenes along the way while the sun was shining. At the […]

The fields are covered in a large […]
