lol....had to add this in....hahahahha......HAIR BAND, 80's style!!!

~ More Great Canadian MUSIC ~

Cranberries - LOVE LOVE LOVE this group!!!


Alanis Morriset, she is so awesome, her voice carries so much emotion and beauty. Proud she is Canadian!!!

Tragically Hip - so Canadian!!! :) Not much to say, but this is song gets played everywhere....bars, night clubs, pubs, radio, hockey games and parties, such a Canadian BAND!!!

Headstones, so sad they broke up. I listened to them when I was in my first year of teaching. I LOVE this song. If I ever have a problem in my life I think of this song. It makes me feel like negativity is not worth hanging on to, smile and wave at it, leave it behind.......life's too short.

~ Fave Canadian Musicians ~


Colin James- got his casset tape, yes I said TAPE, when I was young......lol....I am OLD! He rocks!!!


Alannah Myles- had such a crush on her when I was a kid. I wrote her fan club, lol, she never replied.....:( Guess it was cuz I was too young, LOL!, had her tape too!


Northern Pikes - awesome song, one hit wonder and yes, had their tape too!!! :)

~ Time for something different ~

Usually I am always posting a pic. I thought I would share some music I like. I love this group and pretty much enjoy all their cover music that they add their punk sound to. It's music I enjoy listening to when I edit, high energy! :)

~ 92/365 Good Drugs ~
Had a good day, it was still lame to have this cold but first day in a long time I really felt a good improvement.
It has been hard to be sick all of spring break, but I still find a reason to smile. Life is good and there is always something that makes it special and wonderful. So even when sick you can discover beautiful and amazing reasons to feel better. (OG)

I had a good day today, even though I am fighting a cold and feeling rough. I still found moments where I could enjoy the day. I had a nice long nap with Nahla and Finny. I did a bit of cleaning and organizing. All in all it was a really good day today.

~ 89/365 HDR Finny ~
So today my cold did not seem to want to retreat. So I decided to run to the doctor. I had no appointment so I called the two clinics in our town and found out one was doing a walk in from 1pm-3:30. I showed up at 1pm and was at home at 1:45 with my prescribed pills and napping until like 5:30pm. I think that's pretty good to see a doctor without an appoitment. I have had longer waits even with appointments.
Today was a bit cooler then the weekend. Wind was cold. Of course I stayed inside today....downloaded the new maps for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2....totally got pwned on the first map I tried. Was playing some really high ranking prestiege players. It will take some time to learn the new maps. Jenn leaves for Ontario tomorrow for a bit. So I am on cat sitting duty....gonna have all 3 sucky cats wanting cuddles. I am up for the challenge.
Also hoping to do a few photo shoots. I have one planned with the amazing MAC!!! Looking forward to working with him again.

~ 75/365 Nahla Discovers the Outside World ~

~ Nahla Pearl 75/365 ~
Nahla sat by my computer in the office looking outside at the world. I opened the window and she was loving breathing in fresh air and listening to the sounds of nature. She sat for a long time looking out.....I grabbed my 70-200 called out her name and voilla, 75/365 is done!!!!
What a beautiful day, the snow in my front yard is quickly disappearing. This time of year though looks SO gross and dirty. Lots of brown and rotten things underneath that pure white snow we have been looking at for the last few months. I can't wait for the April showers to do add more green and clean up a little the dirt that seems to be covering everything. Mother Nature is awesome!!! :) I can't wait to start exploring this earth again with my camera. :)

~ 74/365 Spring is Coming ~

~ 74/365 Spring is Coming ~
Spring is coming, I see signs everywhere, even in my front yard. Loving this weather. So sad about the snow mobilers that were killed this last weekend in the mountains. The bad part is there were warnings, I don't sled and even I know this time every year people get killed in avalanches while on snow machines. It isn't rocket science, maybe after a LOT of people die from this others will start to clue in? Maybe it's dangerous to ride high powered machines up mountains of snow and ice??? I feel bad for the families but come on people, smarten up.....accidents can happen but please use common sense and be safe. Is it really worth it to lose family and friends just for a thrill ride?

~ 73/365 Renee Robyn ~

After many years of wanting to do a shoot together, Renee Robyn and I got to do a shoot today. She came out to the studio and we had a wonderful shoot together. She's a beautiful model and was such a pleasure to work with. I hope I get an opportunity to shoot with her again.

What celebrity would you love to do a dream photo shoot? Give details! I had a tough time with this one so right back at ya.

I had to really think about this one. I know it's not easy but I would really like to shoot a portrait of Harrison Ford. Yeah the Star Wars fanboy in me would love to shoot Han Solo, Indy....it'd be fun. That would be my pick for male celeb, if it was female, I would love to photograph Elizabeth Banks.

Ask me anything
