The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Baby it’s cold outside! Once in a red moon there is a lunar eclipse, and this morning was an opportunity to watch the moon slip into the Earth’s shadow, made a bit more rare by the coincidence of it occurring on the Winter Solstice. It was about -20C when I headed outside with a small telescope and my camera. It’s amazing how quick your fingers stop working when handling tripods and buttons and lenses at -20… but I digress. It was a beautiful, clear night. A slight breeze made it a bit cooler and harder to keep the tripod steady (or maybe that was just my shaking hands), but I did manage to get some shots of the lunar eclipse.

I went out at 11:45 PM MST and called it quits at about 1:15 AM, so I missed the second half of the show (unlike the last time).  It was cold (did I already mention it was cold), but I’m glad I got to witness it.

The next morning after not enough sleep, I drove my daughter to school right around sunrise, and got one last shot of the moon before it ended it’s spectacular day. Thank you, God, for the show!

For years I have been told that I should try to sell some of my photography. Well, I’m doing it.

It has been a busy Fall for me in photography. Not in shooting so much, but in showing my work. I have joined a local artist association, had my first art show and sale at which I sold my first print (and was even honoured with the People’s Choice Award). That led to me being invited to display my work at a new art gallery that just opened in town.

My prints on display.

Chair of Bowlies opened on December 1st and the Grand Opening will be on Saturday, December 4, 2010. I currently have 6 large prints on display and will be adding a number of 8×12 and 8×10 prints in the coming days.

Located at 5009 51st St in Olds, Alberta, Chair of Bowlies art gallery and retail outlet features a variety of different works, from photography to woodwork, hand-blown glass, textiles, and much more.  Please stop by and check it out!
