More from relaxing times at the cottage.

Tomorrow I get a whole bunch of film back from our recent trip to Florida among other things. It's always an exciting time, waiting for the film. Inevitably I am disappointed on the first look through, but the second and third looks are better, and each batch of film pushes me to do better next time. Never satisfied: a good way to be?

With the weather the way it is right now I feel like the above scene is almost possible. But really it will take a few months till we get to this point. And of course that's the way it should be. But oh to have my morning coffee in a raft!

Our cat Pigeonz is not a fan of most people. In fact she strongly dislikes most people. But she is in love with Chris. Few people believe it or get to see their bond. Above is the proof!

Going to take a little March break hiatus from the blog. Back in business March 19th! In the meantime if in Montreal check out these photo shows:

Kotama Bouabane at The Parisian Laundry (his MFA thesis show) till March 17th

Taryn Simon at DHC Art till May 13th

Janieta Eyre at Samuel Lallouz till March 31st

Images from my Red Counter series are up on Feature Shoot, along with a short interview conducted by Kevin J. Miyazaki.

Three documentaries that I would like to see: Soth, Crewdson, and Parr.

Same path as here

Did this snake try to cross the road in winter or was it earlier in the year that it met its demise?

Chris reading.

After breakfast at the cottage.

I regret that I missed Miranda July's Montreal talk last year.

Yawning cat.

Chris in the summer. He's still biking these days. Not me, I'd rather walk.

Views from the Jacques Cartier Bridge bike path.

I miss you cottage!

Taught this morning and am teaching tonight. Am a little tired but posting on this blog always relaxes me and makes me feel better. After all its all about the photos, and what's better than that!

More from our NH Labour day camping trip. I miss camping, although with the beautiful snow right now cross country skiing has been pretty good!

From our Labour day camping trip to the White Mountains (NH). Chris in the tent.

Thanks Alexi Hobbs for the shout out earlier this week. See it here.

More of Chris at the cottage in September.
