I do love summer, especially at the cabin. Seeing that Bruno is a lover of all things water, it’s no surprise that his July photos involve waiting to dock jump and dock jumping including some walking on water. August and September saw the breakfast club, playing in the tennis courts and waiting for visitors. DeckContinue reading “Bruno – Walking on Water. July to September 2018”

Agnes – rescue puppy in autumn
September saw us get a bit of an early start to fall on the prairies. Although we were sad to see the end of summer, it did make for some colourful photos in Agnes’ project. She also managed to shake on a deal, imitate a grey seal, and show just how wide she can openContinue reading “Agnes – rescue puppy in autumn”
26 Bridges – The Rise of the Traffic Bridge
I’ll admit that this is a delayed post. Saskatoon’s new traffic bridge is set to officially open tomorrow (October 2, 2018). These photos have been on my hard drive for far too long as they are from a trip to the river to document building the bridge during a -40 celcius morning on February 7,Continue reading “26 Bridges – The Rise of the Traffic Bridge”

26 Bridges – Buckwold and Remai
Last year the Remai Modern Art gallery opened in Saskatoon. It’s an amazing building, with really cool architectural lines. When I took a trip down to river landing just before labor day I was uncertain if I would taking photos of the Remai or the bridges. Turned out that my favorite shot was one ofContinue reading “26 Bridges – Buckwold and Remai”
Agnes the Rescue Puppy – July 2018
July was a good month, with most of the photos outdoors at home or at the cabin. Agnes is continuing to get more comfortable in her own skin. She remains neurotic, but in a very cute and quirky way.

Bruno continues loving life and everything that it has to offer. These three months saw some computer work, cheerios, a return of summer, cabin time, dock jumping and road trips.

26 bridges – Gordie Howe and Grand Trunk Rail Bridge
In August of 2017 I took an evening trip out to the old Grand Trunk rail bridge and new Gordie Howe South Circle Drive bridges for some sunset photos. The night was calm so there was not a ripple on the river. A beautiful Saskatchewan summer night. It made for a good evening of photos.Continue reading “26 bridges – Gordie Howe and Grand Trunk Rail Bridge”

On Instagram – theDogWearsPantlers
In Rome I was convinced that I needed to be on Instagram. I did resist adding a media presence/commitment, but decided to join and now regularly post photos there. Since not all photos make it on this web site the Instagram feed provides a more updated stream of dog and other photos. My handle isContinue reading “On Instagram – theDogWearsPantlers”
Bruno’s Project – December 2017 – Golden retriever at Christmas
Bruno and Christmas. Two things that I love, which are even better when combined together.

Eva’s Project – November & December 2017.
Hard to believe that 2017 is now over, and the weather that we had to end the year was chilly to say the understated least. This also marks the last post of Eva the Brittany Spaniel’s monthly 2017 photography project. This November photo was a tribute shot, based on a lovely photo by Stefanie Timmermann. Continue reading “Eva’s Project – November & December 2017.”

Cottage Life Calendar – Northern Lights at Emma Lake
In 2016 I entered a few photographs in the Cottage Life photography contest and unfortunately none were selected as winners. Then this summer I received an email asking if they could use my photo of the norther lights in the 2018 calendar, which I of course quickly agreed to. When they send out a fewContinue reading “Cottage Life Calendar – Northern Lights at Emma Lake”

Eva’s project – July and August. Brittany Spaniel in the summer
Almost all of Eva’s July and August photo project was done at the cottage. This even included a good view of the partial eclipse, which was more awe-inspiring for humans than dogs.

Brittany Spaniel in the summer”

Eva’s Project – May & June 2017
Eva’s project in May and June saw a random collection of mainly spontaneous photos. Sad to admit that there was no master plan here, just taking photos for the fun of it.
