There was a birth today

Given that I want to get serious about my photography, I’d like to announce the birth of my photoblog “1,440 MOMENTS“.

Pictures will continue to show up here but Light Captured will be devoted to my journey as an amateur photography. Drop over and say hi!

This is more like it!

Light at the end of the tunnel

After what seemed like the longest winter ever, Mother Nature threw the switch this week.  Right now it reads 24C outside, all the windows are open and the yard work has commenced.  It’s glorious!

I took advantage of a beautiful sunrise to go for a walk around the park before I got down to my shopping and chores. Heading to Chingacousy, I go through an underpass and I was quite taken by the look of the grass that is just starting to grow.  The darkness of the tunnel contrasted so beautifully with the glimpse of nature that I took about 12 shots to get this one.

Ready for service

The dome has been taken off the tennis courts which really do need some work.  Liked the play of light and shadows on this one.

Early Morning Boarding

Not a lot of people around at 7am except for a few maintenance people and this intrepid boarder shooting the steps at the new skateboarding park.

It was so nice to get outside after months of being cooped up in my office at work or my office in the basement at home.  Lots of projects to work on but some days you just have to say “screw it!”.  I did get the lawns cleaned up so I wasn’t completely goofing off.

I love the world

Busy? You betcha!

The last few weeks have certainly been busy ones.  What with helping Jan out with things she can’t do while her arm heals and a really complicated implementation at work, I’ve hardly had time to breathe.  The day starts at 5am and I send my final email at 9pm.  Jan has physiotherapy 3 mornings a week which means I don’t get into the office until around 9:30 by which time the problems are mounting.  Working from home in the morning and evening helps but I certainly do need a little rest.

So after all this, I finally get a weekend that doesn’t have too many deadlines.  Off to the museum to take a part in a meeting for the Mosquito project.  Still not decided whether we’ll try to acquire an actual airframe or build a replica.  Of course I’m an idiot and end up volunteering to

  1. Create and manage the formal project plan and provide updates to the team members
  2. Write a blurb for the museum website describing the feasibility study we’re undertaking
  3. Help with the creation of a PowerPoint presentation on the history of the Mosquito as it relates to the Greater Toronto Area.

All 3 things really interest me.  But where do I find the time????
