We probably all know that robins may be the least fussy of all birds about where they build their nests. I can’t figure out how there can be so very many robins when they are such poor (& risky) homebuilders. So.. this nest was built on a boat hitch. Not only can everyone in the neighbourhood plainly see it, including all the local dogs, cats & foxes, but now no one can move the boat or use it, until the home is vacated! I took this pic on May 20, tomorrow I’ll show you what was in the nest on June 11…. 06/14/19
A painterly version of a peaceful evening at my friend’s beach at Steep Rock on Lake Manitoba. 06/13/19
This is my friend’s guest house at their cottage at the lake. It looks just like a little Hobbit House from Lord of the Rings fame & is perfect for friends & family who are staying with them. Everyone loves to stay there! I wanted it to look a little ‘cartoony’ so played with Topaz filters, first the Adjust 5, then Texture Effects, a touch of Glow & finally DeNoise. It’s a little extreme but hopefully has a fun feel… Many thanks to everyone for all your wonderful comments, stories & suggestions over the last few days, I do so appreciate every one! 06/12/19
