At Large
I’ve just added a new page to this site (link) for funny pics that I have
accumulated from times just chilling or coming across a funny or unique moment that someone has captured me doing. Just fun snapshots.

Rhino on Ice
Today I had an opportunity to go ice skating with a bunch of friends. It
was only the second time in my life to attempt that and I’ve never owned a pair of roller blades, though I've roller bladed on occasion before I have
not had any practice at all in the last few years. Needless to say I spent most of my time frequenting the sideboards, smiling embarrassingly at
onlookers, assuring parents that I was not a threat to their kids well-being on the ice and picking myself up off the floor.
It was fun doing something new despite feeling like a toddler learning to
walk and doing so in a public recreation venue. As my motto goes opportunities are limitless and I try to seize them and learn something
new even if I look like a fool till I get the hang of it. I just hope it does not take another 10 years till I get another shot at this, untill then the NHL draft will have to wait.

Ana...chron...i...What?
This week I got a OneWordPhoto assignment in my photo club of the
word “anachronism” I had not really heard that word used before so I looked it up and in a thesauruses and found it could be a acronym for
relic, survival, leftover and holdover. Armed with that knowledge I asked one of my colleagues if she knew what that word meant, she did not but
said it sounded like Anna Kournikova which got me thinking. Ana is far from being a relic despite having been around in the tennis world for the
last ten+ years though she’s only been truly successful in getting adolescent males to fall totally in love with her and of course her
multimillion dollar marketing/modeling endorsements. She can more then survive with her good looks with some leftover.
That being said I think it’s hard to imagine an everyday use for a word like this such as “my grandfather is a anachron (relic)” or “my friend is in
the hospital fighting for his very anachronism (survival) or a TV show being called Anachronist (Survivor). if you visit my house I might just
ask you to put the anachron (leftovers) in the refrigerator.

Winter Wonderland?
Here I am in a winter land but the only wonder on my mind is when it will end. Snow is nice and all but as an outdoor photographer I like to be
it really has just been to cold this year to do much of anything.
Here is one pic I was able to take recently that added a nice perspective to winter; most importantly that I can look at it on my PC
from the comfort of my nice warm house till the spring.
Today actually was not very cold and was out and around with a friends old A1 Canon 35 mm film camera. It has a good zoom lens and hope I
got some good rural life shots from quite far away, I guess I’ll have to wait till the roll is developed to see what comes of that experiment.
