Fall in New England is magical! A couple of weeks ago we visited the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire and Maine to photograph the fall colours. Unfortunately the weather in the North East has been very warm this year, and the leaves were still a couple...
At the end of August Paul and I spent a week on Saturna Island with our family. Saturna Island is one of the Southern Gulf Islands. It is situated midway between the Lower Mainland of B.C. and Vancouver Island. We rented at a...

We are very lucky to live in such a beautiful location on the Gulf of Mexico, where we get to witness spectacular sunsets. Weeks Bayou is just a few minutes from where we live, and a favourite spot to visit.
In February a friend and I spent three days in Las Vegas. One of the highlights of the trip, besides the food and company, was visiting the Neon Sign Museum. Although we visited the museum during daylight hours, and none of the signs were lit, the graphic nature of...
