Much like the image above, I am busy trying to get all the proverbial “ducks”, or better, pigeons in a row. We arrived home late Wednesday, and it seems like we have hit the ground running, as my friend put it just yesterday.
I am packing – again! – for my upcoming trip to California. But there is always time for a photo outing, especially when it is the 6th Annual Scott Kelby World Wide Photo Walk (WWPW). Moose Jaw has just formed a new photo club, and the group decided to register for the event. Fourteen of us gathered Saturday afternoon to explore Main Street and Crescent Park. The light was wonderful – as autumn light usually is – and there was no lack of subject matter along the way. From architectural features, birds, a musician in the part, a red car and its reflections two hours was barely enough for spending time with like minded people and gathering those images we envisioned.
Rather than elaborate and add a lot more words let me upload a slide show for today. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy a few of the images I captured.

Sometime this summer you offered a give away of a membership to SAQA. So my mind read it as something to do worth Saskatchewan…silly me. I recently saw those same letters in a newsletter from Carol Ann Waugh and investigated. To add to this story, on Thursday morning at our community stitching group we had a impromptu trunk show by the Atlantic rep for SAQA. The idea you placed in my mind has now grown into a big nudge. Thanks for your newsletters which often lead me to a path I would not have chosen.

Hi Anna, You have said previously that success with photography is not really the type of camera that you use, but is indeed in the eye of the photographer! Wonderful photos!

Thanks, Karen – it was difficult to switch from last week’s plethora or photographic opportunities. Coming back to a more sparse landscape and fewer subjects was my personal challenge.

Those daring to visit or live in or near Moose Jaw think it is the best kept secret in the province, Patsy! Actually, any place has a multitude of photographic offerings – one just need to look and hone in!
