Fingerless Cable Mittens

This is what I have been working on recently. Now that spring is here they will be packed away till fall. First attempt at doing cables, absolute love them. This was a confusing and long pattern to follow. If it were not for my co-workers help I dare say these never would have been completed! Thanks Carol and Julie! Next project will be a matching scarf.
Now that the nicer weather is approaching I would like to make a series effort to get some plein air painting done. It will be an all new adventure with an organization I joined last fall. The plein air painters of ontario. Just have to hope and pray the arthritis in my hands settles down. It has been really bad for a month now.
Time to catch up on some reading!!
Be interesting to know if anyone even reads this....

East Coast New Brunswick Exploring

Tuesday, March 8, 2016, was a day for exploring the shores of The Bay Of Fundy near Alma and Cape Enrage. The sun was shining and it felt much like a spring afternoon. The tide was on the way out but only one-quarter of the way. It really is fascinating how fast and far the water travels. It was not until I witnessed this for myself, that the full realization occurred. You must be careful when out along these shores, especially if you cannot swim. This first photo was taken at a place called Dennis Beach. WOW was all I could say when I got out of the car and looked over the cliff! The view is incredible in all directions! Access to the beach is very limited and I could not manage the steep incline down, not to mention getting back up. A shame really because the painting and photo ops are truly endless. Perched at the top where this photo was taken is breathtaking and will provide many opportunities to paint this summer. I certainly can envision  different scenarios with the changi

Spring Flowers

Spring is finally here but it sure does not feel like it today. Good thing I was able to snap a few photos yesterday. The ice pellets and strong winds that have prevailed all day on and off would not have made for a good photo session. Lucky for me I was able to capture a few good images. One of the most enjoyable things for me is photographing plants, trees and flowers. I don't know why but its a real obsession! Both of these images were taken using my Nikon D3200. The colour photo remains untouched but the black and white photo I did some adjusting in Photoshop. Black and white photography just has a certain appeal which I am trying to explore. We always see florals in colour so I thought it would be interesting to see some in Black and White.  My Internet works slower then a turtle so there will only be two photos this time. Till next time!!
