I took this yesterday during Connor and Mel’s visit. I liked it so much I had to give it its own post.

Connor’s First Visit

Connor stopped by today after his visit to the doctor for a checkup. He didn’t seem that excited to see me. Oh well…

He did have lunch though.

Another shot from my après curling photo experience yesterday – rendered with a polaroid look. The symmetry is not quite what I wanted but I like it anyway.

This gas meter or similar contraption caught my attention while I was leaving the Almonte Curling Club after my game today in the Old Geezers Pizza League.

Another still life with the same apple and plate as yesterday, but different grapes. I know you were curious…

All rendered with a high contrast black and white treatment.

Meet my new grandson. This is Connor at less than 1 hour old. He was born at 1:36AM today and weighed 7 lbs 9 oz. He was 4 weeks premature and was a bit wheezy. He was kept in neo-natal care under close watch for the first few hours. Baby and mom are now together and doing well.

Apple and Grapes #1

The plate is probably the most interesting item here. It is a piece of wood fired pottery – very rustic and beautiful.
