HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy New Year everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Life was quite busy over the holidays...I had to go back to work to get some rest! The girls and I were in Ottawa for New Years and had a great time with our friends! Last Wed, we headed to the Toronto Zoo, where these pictures were taken. My New Year's resolution was to update my blog more often and now that the holidays are over, I hope to get back on track and update at LEAST once per week! I tried to add a post last night, but my computer/software was not cooperating!

1st Pic-Fish in a big wall-sized aquarium
2nd & 3rd Pic-Birds (I forget the names of them)
4th Pic-Rhinoceros

Enjoy! More next week!

Happy Holidays!

Just a short post to wish all the visitors to my site a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too! I hope you will come back to visit in the new year, as I will have lots of new pictures from our trip to Niagara Falls and I also hope to go to the Zoo over the holidays too!

Ponies and Horsies....

It's been a couple of weeks since I added some pony/horse shots, so I though it was time! :-) You can tell I haven't been getting out to shoot much, except for these cuties! These were all taken last Saturday.

1st-Percy
2nd-Missy
3rd-Sunny
4th & 5th-I don't know their names! They just looked like they wanted me to take their picture!

For the Birds!

Yep, this post is for the birds! Or for the bird lovers at least! Here are some pictures shot in Nov 2009. I haven't taken any good pictures lately, other than horses, so I went back into the archives for these ones! They were all shot on Amherst Island last year.

1st-chickadee sitting on Kevin's hand
2nd & 3rd-two shots of the same woodpecker. I wasn't sure which I liked better, so included both
4th-a nuthatch getting a seed from the feeder

Myrtle Beach Memories....

 You can tell when the weather starts getting bad, I start wishing I was someplace sunny! Well, here are some shots from when we were in Myrtle Beach. I didn't get to add all the ones I wanted back then, so will add some you  haven't seen yet.

I have not been anywhere to shoot any recent pictures. Keturah hasn't been riding due to the coach's holidays, so my camera has been getting a break lately! I've been sick too with that stupid cold that's going around!

Anyway, here are some shots from Brookgreen Gardens, Myrtle Beach, USA!

1st-Kevin and Keturah under a big ugly tree
2nd-Turtles
3rd-Keturah in an archway
4th-Brooke and Kevin by the palm trees

Headshots

Here are some horse headshots... Keturah and I went to the Royal Winter Fair on Friday, which was pretty cool once again. That reminded me that I should add some new horse shots AND I should update my blog too! I didn't take my camera to the Fair, as I didn't think they were allowed in the Show and then I also didn't want to carry it around for 8 hours as it's way too heavy!
So, for this week, I'm including some horse shots from Wolfden Farms that were taken over the last month!
1st Shot-Sunny, the horse Keturah is currently riding
2nd Shot-Missy
3rd Shot-Sadie
4th&5th Shots-Not exactly sure of the names for these ones!
Enjoy!

Our Newest Family Member!

Yep, here is the newest member of the Maracle Family! He is as yet un-named...any suggestions? He's a skinny pig! (A hairless guinea pig) Keturah bought this little guy on the weekend and he is just so cute...you may not think so looking at him, but he is way cuter in person! haha He may need a sweater or coat to live at our house as it is usually cool in the winter, but none of us know how to knit! Oh Oh!

Anyway, on another note, I have finished my portrait photography course. I have to admit it was quite boring and not all that informative, as I've learned most of the information in another course I took last year! Oh well, I didn't need all that spare time anyway right? :-)

Anyway here is the un-named skinny pig (my suggestion was fluffy!)
