Hog Island On The Right
The channel is frozen. Drilled to 7 inches. Another inch of snow overnight.
We got some snowshoes, so we'll be able to get out on the lake.
It's an enjoyable week leading up to Christmas.

CP 9703
It felt so good to walk away from this. Not a scratch, not a bruise for either one of us.
Nothing is the same anymore. This has changed my perspective on life ... and death.
What a good life.

Hog Island On The Starboard
Hog Island on the upper right. The channel between the mainland and Hog Island.
This has been an amazing summer. The people we have met, even the fact that we met each other, has all been so enjoyable.
It comes down to the people in our lives.
I did the laundry in Perth and had a beer while doing it. The bookstore had free books left out, and I got three; poems by William Wordsworth, a book by Herb Cohen, and lastly a hard cover, two volume missive about the American Civil War: The Blue and The Grey.
Also had a chat at the laundromat with a dude named Jade, now invited to supper with John and Gillian. My wonderful lady is in the Bruce for another night, and then it's work for her for a couple of days, before she arrives early next week. The backlog at the Port of Montreal is large, and work is regular and busy.
The D200 did not survive the canoe tipping, but it is an excellent paperweight and an entertanining story-telling subject.
Life is good.

Dave Genn of 54-40
The lead man, Dave Genn, of 54-40. I didn't know very much of this Vancouver area musician. I didn't realise that he used to play with the Matthew Good Band, back in the 90's. Then he was playing keyboards.
Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5f4Na2xTgU
I Didn't know that he is married to Tamara Taggart, who is one of the on-air ladies at CTV Vancouver.
Is she still on? I'll have to check. I'm learning to watch TV shows on the laptop.
Canceled my dish, I never watch it. Too busy trying to figure out how to make the boring, everday, mundane things around the house, look great, curious, and amazing at the subject end of the D200.
Or trying to learn how to make the guitar, make amazing sounds.
That's not asking much is it ... asking for amazing?

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Here is one of my recent images. Include in the description is an explanation with photos of how it was taken.
The question had been posed by a fellow flickr member, PeterMackey, asking why there was little or no shadow present. I mention the place where I learnt this technique.
I hope that this will be of interest to other photographers. Thank you for visiting.
Mike.

God Bless Haiti
Haiti needs our help. On CBC Radio 1, a Haitian spokesperson advises that if we wish to help, we should donate to the Red Cross. Haitians and Canadians have already been found deceased. I'm sure most nations of the world, will be sadly represented by the dead in Haiti.
It is at times like this that I pray for goodness.
We are so fortunate to be in a position to help.
