Ponderings

Ideas can be life-changing.
Sometimes all you need to open the door is just one more good idea.
~Jim Rohn

Malibu sunset, humans scrambling away from the sharks perhaps? *grin*
I love me a warm summer day
Monday, October 27, 2008
It's not even November and I already miss summer! Noooooo!
In honour of Halloween...

OK a "spooky" shot. And it's Sunday too, so extra appropriate... enjoy! ;-)
Lumière

There are two ways of spreading light;
to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.
~Edith Wharton
A time for rest

These poor leaves have had enough for this year... from bud to baby leaves, to adult dark greens, to food for hungry critters and now, their strength sapped and their colours blazing: we witness a final goodbye present from Mother Nature.
On freedom
Freedom has a thousand charms to show,
That slaves, howe'er contented, never know.
~William Cowper
Wild horses

A Hibernian sage once wrote that there are three things a man never forgets:
The girl of his early youth, a devoted teacher, and a great horse. ~C.J.J. Mullen
Shimmering dusk

The sun sets on a beautiful countryside day - can you feel it tickling your cheeks?
Chop chop chop

My brother has been very industrious in clearing out the scrap wood from his land... and has the chapped, blistering hands to prove it, poor thing. This is only a fraction of the wood he's chopped to date!
Muted silence
Down-toned view from the little cemetary in front of my brother's land -
As he says, "the neighbors are quiet!". I hope it stays quiet after the sun sets...
My best friend
Thursday, October 16, 2008
I've loved this boy from the first time I held him in my arms, a small 5-week old puppy... You cannot find a sweeter, happier dog in all the universe. He is my 4-legged soulmate, my friend and my big ol'melonhead!
The long way home
Just a typical country Quebec country road in the heart of autumn's indian summer.
Young warrior

Inner quiet strength radiates from this young man...
He loves playing soldier in the woods, I wonder what his calling in life will be!
The beast in the marsh
Yep, that's my little explorer over there... she found the pond long before anyone even thought of venturing that way!
Pathways

Our wretched species is so made that those who walk on the well-trodden path always throw stones at those who are showing a new road. ~Voltaire
Autumn babies

My sweet nephew, 11 months old and already loving the good stuff!
Requisite city creatures
Squirrels and birds are busy fattening up for the long lean winter months ahead... Somehow, city parks wouldn't be the same without 'em!
More industrial autumn giants

Giant church's backside...
...and a giant rumbly city sky.
Two signs of autumn
Saturday, October 11, 2008
Yellow treetops and closed ice-cream parlours. Hasta la vista, summer!
The road to nowhere
Friday, October 10, 2008
More in the "industrial autumn" series: once-bustling buildings housing giant steel and diesel monsters, now reduced to shuttered, cobwebbed modern blocks. What a progress!
October skies

Just a few shots from my neighborhood one rumbly autumn afternoon...
Autumn lovers

Taking turns at the fountain whilst contemplating passersby, falling leaves and the impending shortage of food.
An image for a season

What is autumn without her lush crops of bright pumpkins, harbringers of Halloween, frost and wicked delights?
