Woke up just before 5 am this morning, looked out the window and the fog was so thick I could hardly see across the street. Then a few minutes later, the fog lifted. So images of the LNG Canada flare as the fog lifted. Darker ones taken with my cameras, the wider shots by my Samsung Galaxy S23. There will be more interesting images in times to come. Two were converted to black and white to see the contrast.

The first set of photographs for the 2025 Canadian federal election campaign. NDP candidate, incumbent, Taylor Bachrach launches his campaign office in Kitimat.
In honour of St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, 2025, a foggy and rainy day at the famous ancient Bronze Age Dun Aengus (Anglicized) fort on the Isle of Aran, County Galway, Ireland. I visited Dún Aonghasa (Irish) during a trip to Ireland in the spring of 1978. Ancestry says I am 16% Irish.
Winter 2025 has been spectacular for photographing from my front yard and in some cases bedroom window. The planets Jupiter, Saturn and Venus were visible at times and capping it off was the lunar eclipse on March 14, 2025. On the other hand we had a lot of rain and heavy overcast but not much […]
