Nasty cloud Photo on Oct 20, 2008
This is a panorama from my olympus that I shot out by Horberg, 20 minutes west of Rocky Mountain House. We get fun storms out that way :)
Downtown Calgary Photo on Oct 20, 2008
...at night. I would have killed for a decent camera. The olympus did well, but it was far from pro. Everyone's gotta start somewhere :)
Blur on a bike Photo on Oct 20, 2008
For some reason I have about 300 blurry photos taken in calgary at night. You know, the 'experimental' kind where it's odd streaks of tail lights in some organic fashion, indicative of a camera that is unable to capture anything less than blurry at night, and equally indicative of a human who is completely unable to hold the camera still in a moving vehicle at exposure times of more than a half second? Ya, that kind of photo. (I hope you're picking up the sarcasm here, I really have a lot of blurry photos from this particular 'shoot').
Anyway, as chance would have it, every once in a while you get some random 'interesting' photo from one of those blurry photo shoots. If you can't tell, (you know coz it is slightly blurry), it's a dude on a bike :)
Funny duck Photo on Oct 20, 2008
I looked up this funny duck in the bird book at the lake. I can't remember what he is. Same colors as a common loon, but shaped like a duck. They make funny noises and fly funny so I call them 'funny ducks'.

Beautiful Burntstick Photo on Oct 20, 2008
This photo is taken on the way to the summer village. I had to stop and shoot a couple, the colors are amazing.
Gotta love Burntstick Lake. :)
Ant war Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Now this is an interesting photo. I took this a couple years ago, we were at the gravel pit by James River collecting bearberry. I look down and there is a miniature war happening on this rock, in fact, the rock in the picture is the exact convergence point of one set of black ants, and one set of red ants. I sat there for about 10 minutes and watched them battle it out, it was fascinating. Before we left (a bit later) I checked, and the front of the battle was still on that rock.
Deer in the headlights Photo on Oct 20, 2008
She's got this: "They're making me eat salad..." look on her face. I took the picture for proof that she ate salad.
Kane's birthday cake Photo on Oct 20, 2008
What's more fun than having the nephew's birthday at Burntstick? Letting him cut his own cake :)
Cat in a box Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Cats always do dumb things. Dumb humans always take pictures of them. Btw, this is the dog's box...
Abba still sucks Photo on Oct 20, 2008
I laughed when I saw this bumber sticker. This was taken on Bowen Island.
A dusty road Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Nothing really special about this photo. It is taken facing west towards the Dovercourt Hall, in the evening. The backlit poplar trees give a neat green color, adding to the interesting contrast.
Imma rednick Photo on Oct 20, 2008
This was at one of the boys' birthday parties. Billy gets out the twangbox.
Cutting buffalo Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Some handsome fellow cutting up one really old buffalo. I could have crawled into his ribcage.
Bowen causeway Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Here is another shot of the causeway. I took a lot of pictures in Bowen, it's one of those places that's really easy to photograph.
Bowen causeway Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Another picture of the Bowen Island causeway. Actually, it supports the majority of the island's foot traffic.
Killer swan Photo on Oct 20, 2008
The causeway on Bowen Island separates this little bit of water from the Pacific. The swan in this picture is quite lovely, but it's actually the cause (or was at the time) of some controversy. See, it liked to attack people...
Causeway Photo on Oct 20, 2008
I went to visit my good friend Terran on Bowen Island. It's a nice place to take pictures. I notice now it's hard to tell what's in focus through a little digital camera view-finder. I'm not even sure that I took this with the Olympus, but it was in the collection, so I'll put the Bowen photos here anyway.
Pups Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Another photo I took with the Olympus. Billy had a couple pups at one point. They were really cute, but about as dumb as dumb gets.
Deer in the evening Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Nothing particularly special about this photo, I just like the colors. This appears to be just south of Dovercourt. At first I though this was a morning shot, but I'm certain the sun is setting here.
WTF? Photo on Oct 20, 2008
I took this photo in Chinook Center in Calgary, the movie The Incredibles had just come out. I don't know why I took the picture, it's funny what you'll do when you have a camera.
Guitars Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Promo pic for the Band Marye. I believe all of these guitars belong to Kyle, and they represent only a small contribution to his full collection.
I have about that many video games :)
Cover Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Promo photo for the Band Marye. This was the 'coming soon' image for our website for a while. It's actually my chin...
Tom Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Promo pic for the Band Marye. Tom now plays for Euphoria based in Rocky Mountain House.
Kyle Photo on Oct 20, 2008
Promo photo for Marye. Kyle now plays for Euphoria out of Rocky Mountain House.
Old c720uz Photos Photo Album on Oct 20, 2008
The first digital camera that my wife and I purchased years ago was an Olympus c720uz. We got it out of a pawn shop in Red Deer for $200, and have been taking tons of pictures every since. I have several thousand cluttering my hard drive, and I finally went through them and picked the ones I want to share. I haven't officially counted, but I'm almost certain there are 600+ cat pictures in the album. I took 1 of them.
Some photos in this album:
