No Snow Today …

Nov 22, 2022 Lynette d'Arty-Cross 25 Comments

… time for some flowers from a July day in Penticton, and especially for our Ontario family and friends, who received a metre of snow (3.3 feet) over the weekend!

I often visit the Penticton rose garden when I am at home. The roses usually last quite late into the autumn, but this is a lovely walk at any time of year.

I’ve posted some of these photos before, but now is a good time to see them again!

The rose garden’s focus is, of course, roses, but there are many other beauties as well, including these dianthus.

Happy Tuesday.

All photographs in this series were taken in November, though not necessarily this year. My digital picture library started with my first DSLR camera…

Frozen Lake Sunset

The day ends over Great Slave Lake, Northwest Territories.

The subarctic’s proximity to the top of the world provides intensely coloured sunsets.

Greetings from Canada’s far north.

Hay River, NWT

Nov 18, 2022 Lynette d'Arty-Cross 17 Comments

The Hay River, like many others around the country, was abnormally low by the end of the summer because of our summer drought.

It’s normal for the water level to drop over the course of the summer, but the weather has been unusually dry, leading to a significant reduction in the water levels. Despite that, the waterfall is still impressive.
