Memories of Pepper

Rest in Peace, Pepper

We lost our oldest cat, Pepper, yesterday. She will be missed by everyone who knew her. Despite her blindness, she managed quite well and was always a happy cat and friendly to everyone.

Somerset Sunset

Sue is in England for a month's holiday so I thought I would post this photo from our trip in 2008.

Happy Easter

Easter Bunny needs a shave! Taken at Niagara College a few years ago.

Butterfly on Flower

My photo blog buddy, Photoshopplake, posted a shot from a photo seminar we did back in 2007 at Angels Gate Winery. I thought I would re-post a photo I took on that same day.

Disaster in New Zealand

This is the tower of Christchurch Cathedral in New Zealand. The city was struck by a massive earthquake a few days ago. The cathedral is now in ruins. Photo taken on our NZ trip in 2006.

My Most Viewed Photo

This photo of the Maori performers is the most viewed image on my Flickr site with 1,093 views so far.

Wellington Cable Car

This was taken in Wellington, New Zeland. The top of hill gives a great view of Wellington Harbour.

Winery Rose

I found this photo while reviewing my photos of New Zealand. For some reason I never put it in my final album of NZ shots. I recently posted this on my Flickr site and it's already received 42 hits.

Memories of New Zealand

Friends of ours are visiting New Zealand for a few months. It made me have a look at some of my photos that I hadn't edited. I found this one of a colourful phone box in Christchurch. The cathedral is in the background.

Stone Doves

Photographed at Opus One Winery in California. These doves were on a coffee table in the reception room as we were waiting for a tour of the winery.

Memories of Sacremento

Old Sacremento street scene using a filter in Photoshop Elements.

Memories of California

While reviewing my photos of a trip to California that we took many years ago, I found this one of Opus One Winery.

Memories of Wales

Photographed in Portmeirion, Wales.

Old Sawmill at Sunset

I photographed an old sawmill on Konkle Avenue in Beamsville at Sunset and adjusted the sky in Picnik software.

Barn in Wine Country

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

Christmas in Beamsville

This photo was taken a few years ago but I'm sure the house is just as well decorated this year. King Street, Beamsville.

Rippon Vineyard

I received a Flickr e-mail today. Someone really liked my Winery photos and said I should enter a contest her website is holding. Here's one of the photos I entered. Taken in New Zealand, Rippon Vineyard is the most photographed winery in the world.

Long Island Sound

I was going through some of my photos last night and noticed that I hadn't edited all the photos from our Long Island trip. This was a sunset shot overlooking Long Island Sound.

Looking Back to 2007

This is the photo I posted on my blog three years ago today! It was taken at a Finger Lakes Winery.
