I photographed an old sawmill on Konkle Avenue in Beamsville at Sunset and adjusted the sky in Picnik software.
We were at Laura's farm when she had just finishing bottling a number of cases of Pinot Noir. Here's she emptying the last of the storage container into Sue's glass.
Laura raises Ragdoll cats but also has many pet cats in the house. This one is "Nadia" and really likes the new leather chair which is not so new anymore!
My great niece and nephew have so many toys throughout the house, I don't know if this toy was a Christmas present this year or past years! I thought it would make a great photo anyway.
My great niece, Bethany and great nephew, Matthew on Christmas day, 2010.
Ameet is my niece's family cat. He was a working cat at the Ontario Veterinarian College in Guelph. Photo taken on Christmas day.
Sue made this English Trifle for Christmas Day. I thought I'd better take a photo before people started digging in. Looks good enough to eat!

I was going through the photos from our trip to California and found on of my favourite barn shots.

Yesterday, I posted a photo of the Toronto skyline that I enhanced in Photoshop. This is the original untouched image.
This was cropped from a much larger photo taken from Angels Gate Winery in Beamsville. The Toronto skyline could hardly be seen in the original photo but with some help from Photoshop's solarizing filter, this panorama was made. Click on photo to enlarge.
Photographed at Fielding Estate Winery
