'Mispon'... means 'it is snowing' in Cree. It's a whole sentence in a word. As in 'it snows', as 'it is snowing', as 'there is falling snow'. Snow, Mural & Car #TagTuesday #JanuArty #EastCoastKin #Photography #PhotographersOfBlueSky #Urbanphotography #Streetart #yeg #Canada

I can't believe I have to live in this time period.

Morii... From memento mori, a small reminder of your mortality + torii, traditional Japanese gates that mark the threshold between the profane and the sacred. (The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows) #AlphabetChallenge #WeekBforBooks #PhotographersOfBluesky #EastCoastKin #Humansofbluesky #classicmono

On The 7th Day... I learned late that you can't always be 'on'; and the world wants you to be. Everything needs to #reset and fallow. Most especially your poor brain. #Stunday #Rest #Soft #WinterScape #WinterLight #WinterBeauty #LandscapePhotography #EastCoastKin #PhotographersOfBluesky #Mono #Yeg

Everyone knows things got bad after David Bowie died in January 2016. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/laura-palm...

“The world’s a goddamn twilight zone — people wired wrong, hearts half-asleep. Just try to move through it with a little grace... ― Jonathan Harnisch, Living Colorful Beauty #AlphabetChallenge #WeekAforAbstract #BlueSkyArtShow #Vibrant #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin #Photography #Dawn

The Days Are Getting Longer... so are the shadows. Wishing everyone time outside with somebody you love this #weekend. If you don't have a somebody a good #dog will do nicely. #Scape #Canada #BlueSky #Sunset #Photography #Photo #Landscape #Outside #EastCoastKin #Skyscape #yeg #Friends #Photography

The Wheel of Life... Everything moves like a wheel, and life is not an exception. Fate & timing are interconnected, too. #Photography has reaffirmed that for me, over and over. #humansofbluesky #yeg #photography #urbangaze #eastcoastkin #classicmono #bnw #timing #circles #streetphotography

Meanwhile in Canada... #bnw #winter #classicmono #blackandwhitephotography #January #photography #nowhere

Ok enough about me... how about that sunrise! #nature #sunbeams #sunrise #trees #lightrays #morninglight #naturelovers #landscape #outdoorlife #photography #yeg

It's All About Me...Today. Apparently. It's my #running anniversary. #BW #WindowsOnWednesday #Abandoned #PhotographersofBluesky #ClassicMono #Architecture #EastCoastKin #selfportrait #manpower #yeg #yayme

December 2025 Stats... Just a reminder that every #photograph I take required me to move my body, on my legs, generally through snow, at a fast clip. This is my 13th year #running with a camera in Canada. I'm 58. Admittedly I could have picked a better hobby...

Softly It Dawns on You... I've found epiphanies often show up anticlimactically, unannounced, wearing soft shoes. (Lake Okanagan, January 2024) #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekAforAbstraction #EastCoastKin #PhotographersOfBlueSky #PhotographersUnited #Nature #Beauty

Stephen Miller should do all his TV interviews about fighting Greenland in a big White Parka....

I'd like transition lenses for my glasses that keep magnify my eyes, making them larger and larger, the longer people talk to me... #newyear #inventions

Making Tracks... The headlines are horrible and the holidays are in the rearview. #EastCoastKin #Photography #PhotographersOfBlueSky #ClassicMono #Monochrome #Bnw #HumansOfBlueSky #Streetphotography #Winter #Citylife #Composition #Mondayvibes

Finally found the electric space heater I want... #canada #winter

There goes the hemisphere....

It's Another Mordor Sunrise... staring slowly 'cross the sky, I said goodbye, The days go by. (Popping Vitamin Ds and running faster than the 'yotes. Sigh.) #scape #eastcoastkin #yeg #classicmono #bnw #yeg #blackandwhite #photography #forestfriday #urbanforests

So far, 2026 has taught me that many people have a lot feelings about cars. #cars

Mysterious Mists “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.

Buyer's Remorse...? #photography #yeg #downshifting

New Year Resolutions... Keep striving. #wordonthestreet #photography #streetphotography #yeg #thrive #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBlueSky #EastCoastKin #UrbanGaze #citylife

In 2025 I lost 30lbs (which I didnt plan on.) I really got into weights (unplanned) + kept running (over the year I ran 2,132 km.) I raised $32,000 for food for #yeg inner city youth. I also got our charity approved for MS Windows bulk licenses like a district school which saved much $s. #2025recap

Happy New Year’s Eve ✨… I'm sharing a sensational #sunset and wishing you continued stamina and the ability to pause to enjoy a moment every day. Why monetize everything? When you can 'momentize' more. ✌️ #happynewyear #resolutions #photography #nature #beauty #BirdoftheDay #sunsets #prairie #yeg

Synesthesia... There are at least 80 types of synesthesia. Synesthetes use their abilities in memorization of names, numbers, mental arithmetic and more complex creative activities like producing visual art. It's like having an extra sense. #ColorADay #BlueTue #photography #synethesia

Autumn Murder... I sold this photo today! It was chosen as a 16"x16" directly printed on brushed metal with a white smooth satin finish to control light reflection. Not impacted by moisture. It's going in a kitchen in Victoria, BC. #yay #artyear #crows #birds www.pictorem.com/192627/autum...

Chinese Food with Mother Theresa, on Christmas Eve. One of the most surreal selfies I've ever taken. In a chapel in an assisted care facility that we rented to have dinner with my step-mom. #surealsrlfie

Mill Creek Stairs... These stairs have been a part of my life for over 30 years. My parents had a house on this street in my 20s. I'd head into the ravine doing 20-aged things, then. They were an all-season gateway to fun. They looked magical in falling snow. I had memories. #stunday #yeg #snow

A 'Mikiwap' (tipi) in heavy snow. Its circular base and open top symbolize the connection between Earth and the Creator, embodying the cyclical nature of life, unity, and #harmony. #SundaySilence #indigenous #yeg #snow #PhotographersOfBlueSky #ThePhotoHour #EastCoastKin #Stunday #Treaty6 #Canada

The Space Between Birds... If I ever went back to University, I'd do a #finearts degree that explored the space between #birds. #photography

Everyday is like Christmas on Caturday.... “Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead Just sit beside me… and lick my ear!" #cats #dogs #friends #caturday

Peace and gravy to all.

🅳🅰🆈 24 - "Frør..." I live in a hard cold place that's currently in a dark cycle, literally & figuratively. Yet #photography is mostly about finding good light. This is also a good strategy for #life in general. Stay alert. Be kind. #artadventcalendar #frozen #alberta #yeg #beauty #nature #yuletide

Gang Sign? Met my old #friend and business partner for breakfast today. I was best man at his wedding 30 years ago. We ran a design business for 25 years together, after that. Raised hell. Raised families. Stayed afloat. We still stay connected. Help each other when we can. (See alt.) #noregrets

In The Dead of Winter... The canopy of winter elms in Edmonton's Pleasantview cemetery. #fotografia #outside #winter #photography #yeg #artyear #trees #nature

🅳🅰🆈 23 - "My Word..." Last January I chose one word for 2025. I wrote: "Me thinks bamboozled will be the word of the year. Because in 2025 everything is cattywampus. Facts are just so yesterday. So pass me the ninnyhammer and lets get to work dumbing down." #artadventcalendar #artofselfportraiture

🅳🅰🆈 22 - The Raven... Messengers of deities; gangsters of back alleys… they have beards and they make so many sounds. From harsh "kraa" calls, to almost aquatic chuckles, clicks, and soft warbles. I ❤️ ravens. #artadventcalendar #classicmono #minimal #birds #ravens #yeg #bnw #photography #art

A reminder to those trapped in a #Canadian airport due to bad weather. Here, you have a right to stay in a nearby picturesque village while your #airline sorts out a rebooked flight. They also have to provide you with a widowed lumberjack or interior designer to fall in love with. #Harlequinromance

🅳🅰🆈 21 - 'Hoarding'... Even the shortest day is worth holding on to. #winterSolstice #stunday #photography #naturephotography #PhotographersofBlueSky #yeg #BlueSkyArtShow #scape #frosty

My son put creatine in my eggnog and I just shoveled our whole street...

🅳🅰🆈 20 - 'Vermisst'... My contribution to the #BlueSkyArtShow #OpenHouse " all our days are marked with unexpected affronts... leaving empty spaces where people should be." ― Charles Bukowski The Annex at the Legislature demoed in '22. #yeg #photography #architecture #raven #ableg #edmonton

It's starting to look a lot like... #Christmas #classicmono #bnw #blackandwhite #photography #iphone #malls #tired #sleep #naps

🅳🅰🆈 19 - The Wicked Winds of the West... It's like a Gordon Lightfoot ballad out there. I think an 'Alberta Clipper' is clipping. Weather advisories are up all over. #artadventcalendar #photography #EastCoastKin #AlphabetChallenge #WeekForYearPast #skyscape #dusk #yegwx
