The day was just as grey as we were afraid of. Just some light drizzle, but very low cloud so the only thing clear was that we couldn’t shoot any landscape today. We decided to drive through the Kootenay NP, which normally is good for wildlife sightings. Except on a day like this, not even…
The morning dawned dark and rainy. Not much to do about it, so we just drove off to Lake Louise. When we got there, we found ourselves in snowfall.. or sleet anyway. It was cold! Quite a contrast to the sweating we had to do at the hoodoos on Monday in scorching sunshine. We didn’t…
We had some good photo ideas from yesterday’s hike around the Emerald Lake, so we decided to go there again and see the same in the morning light. Except, the morning light was extremely diffused, with a lot of high cloud (and a touch of smoke I’m sure). So I did a bunch of closeups…
There’s plenty of interesting things to see here, natural and unnatural alike. We had decided to skip the further exploration of the Glacier NP so we had an extra day at Yoho NP instead, and this gave us a chance to hike up to the Hoodoos. The weather is great – warm! – but the…
Early in the morning, we headed east from Vancouver towards the Glacier National Park. No problems with the driving, and we got there early enough. A disappointing factor is that there is a lot of smoke in the air, as there are some forest fires in the region. Without any rain, the smoke is going…
Greetings from Vancouver! Arrived here safe and sound. The trip was rather boring, which is a good thing. I should add a note about the security at Heathrow though. I spoke with SAS support on Thursday to ask about the cabin baggage allowance. I was told that it’s normal (other than no liquids and gels).…
Well folks, it’s time for my summer holiday. I’ll be off to Canada now! I should be able to get online from time to time, especially in the first week, so hopefully I will soon have some nice photos to share with you. Or let’s put it this way – hopefully I will soon have…
August started warm and ended cold with morning frost. Otherwise, a pretty boring month that I’m happy to put behind me. Give me September anytime! I was on holiday in the beginning of August so there’s three days of data missing. * * * Temperature (High): 27°C Temperature (Low): 7°C Temperature (Average): 16°C Barometer (High):…
So, guess who’s a lucky one and has an explosive battery in the Powerbook? No prizes. The Dell Latitude I have at work had a good battery so I didn’t have to exchange it, but the Apple Powerbook – the very same Powerbook I will take with me to Canada in two weeks! – has…
*sigh* So, I went driving for a bit, went cycling for a bit, did hoovering for a bit, washed the dishes for a bit, read a book quite a lot, idled around for a bit, and took some lousy pictures for a bit. …What a forgettable day. Next!
