"to see the world in a grain of sand..."
I awoke to mist and fog, so dense you could see it moving, like an alien beast, huffing and puffing and snaking its way through the neighborhood. Inbetween puffs, I could see the landscape was shrouded in hoar frost, that delicate powdering of ice and frozen alien breath.
A good day to get outside.
Even though I rushed to get going, by the time I hit the road, the sun was up and the blue sky had defeated the interloping mist. But the frost was still breathtaking.
So, the new year is not that far off…a mere three weeks – where does the time go!?
You’re going to need a new calendar for the new year, right? Why not support a good cause while you’re in buying mode? The Canadian Parks & Wilderness Society Annual Nature Calendar is on sale now and it features 2 (or 3) of my images. March is a full page spread of my shot of a balsam fir. Somewhere in inside, are a shot of an elk and possibly one other one.
Get it here and support habitat conservation Manitoba!
If you’re in Winnipeg, drop in to Mountain Equipment Coop on Portage – the CPAWS office is on the third floor. I’ll be picking up a box of them on Monday!
