These four work well as a set 📷 #photography

Four vertical photos arranged in a square featuring similar warm red and yellow colour palettes with some splashes of blue green

Structures 📷 #photography

A warm coloured brick wall takes up one vertical half of the photo. The other half shows part of the Maritime Centre, with a white parked car and a church spire in the background

Sunday morning stroll - "Too busy to post them yesterday" edition 📷 #photography I'll be back with the car

A middle aged white man walks to the left with a bag over his shoulder and one in his left hand. He's walking in front of a massive intensely green wall in bright sun. There is a tall shadow of a power pole on the wall

Ah, darn. That may leave us under or flat. I see bridge data on the IMP dashboard starting in mid-2023, but there were issues with its installation. Not sure of Dan's policy on retroactive changes if he started reporting it last year. This graph shows June 26 slightly under 25 - so likely not

It's beverage o'clock

A tall glass filled with a bubbly, translucent orange-brown cocktail. There is a metal skewer strung through a bunch of mini cucumber slices and a purple-green shiso leaf poking out of the drink

I could've sworn I left a neighbourhood around here somewhere

Looking west through extremely dense fog across the North Common. Normally you would be able to clearly see the buildings on the other side, but today can't even see halfway across the park

Hudson came by for a visit

A framed photo of our cat Hudson is lit up by a streak of evening sun. It's on a shelf in front of some flowers and a sparkly deer

Yup

Really surprised I haven't seen any new articles on the crazy inflation for Ziploc bags

My eternal nemesis 👿 We re-did our lawn a few years back with West Coast Seeds' Bee Turf - a mix of clover, low growing flowers, fescue, yarrow, etc. It does fairly well in the shade. Pro tip: mix in a bunch of seeds for Bellis daisies to amp up the cute, though I end up feeling bad on mow days

Hard to beat a good sunsnooze

Midge, a calico cat with white mittens and boots, snoozes curled up on a white seersucker duvet. She's covered in early evening sun and shadows

Snack time!

A Cooper's Hawk standing on a lightly snow covered lawn among falling snowflakes. It is standing over the red remains of its prey, likely a small bird or mouse

Saw him last night and it was incredible. As @lanalou.bsky.social said: a true showman.

They're an invasive species. Snagged this one just a few minutes ago

And a final big and small splash of red amongst the browns and greys 📷 #photography #halisky

The bright and intense red corrugated siding on the back side of the Dillon building as seen from Grafton Street. It overhangs a stripe of pale grey concrete and some yellow brown solid foam along the bottom of the building. The repeating shapes of the chamfered pergola top of the Maxwell's Plum beer garden run at an oblique angle along the right hand side

A small bit of graffiti script in red paint proclaiming Jesus is king on a rough grey concrete wall under some shiny windows

Definitely a mid-winter downtown palette in effect yesterday: white, pale blue and gold, brown, rust and, copper with clear light on a cloudless morning 📷 #photography #halisky

A single pigeon flies over the back side of the Nova Centre. Wispy white steam clouds move across a pale blue sky over the big angular brick, metal, and glass building sections

A big, wooden double door on an old brown brick and stone building on the waterfront. Small, bright splashes of reflected light dot the building around a pair of arch topped windows

A snow-topped waist high metal wall in warm shades of brown rust against a smooth copper wall

The old Halifax Central Library sits abandoned in the snow. Dark shadows from adjacent trees are drawn across the thin vertical segments of the rough concrete walls. The windows are boarded up with grey painted wood

A shot I take whenever I'm in the area, hoping to catch a bird on the light someday. A nice dappling of light this time and an interesting warm/cool split that I haven't seen before 📷 #photography #halisky

The strong vertical black and white lines of the Centennial Building at the corner of Sackville and Granville Streets are broken by a thin curved streetlight. The building is covered by light reflected from adjacent buildings. The left side of the building has a warm golden colour, whereas the right side is a cool pale blue

Saturday morning photo stroll yesterday... First one of the year that I'm in love with. The south end of Granville Street with the Maritime Centre looming in the background. 📷 #photography #halisky

A pale golden brown brick building is lit at a sharp angle by early sunlight. It is small in the frame next to a dark grey building next to it. The much taller Maritime Centre sits darker in the background, looming over the other buildings

Chatting with my neighbour over the fence

A shorthaired and thin black lab named Otis has his front paws up on the top of a chain link fence. He looks extra dapper with his bright red collar

Snugglebuds™️ #cats

Two cats named Midge and Maud curl up together in a circle on a white bedspread. Midge the calico cat looks disapprovingly into the camera, while Maud the grey cat stays curled up. Their feet are all snuggled under each other to keep the toes cozy

A little Friday timeline cleanse #cats

Midge, a calico cat, snoozes in a soft grey fuzzy round highsided cat bed in the sun. Her eyes are shut tight and her face is partly reflected in the glass of a sliding door

The gallery is hoppin'

Looking across the street at an absolutely packed opening for Pre-Shrunk at Argyle Fine Art
