Red Ring Tupperware Party, Autumnal Equinoctal Edition (24)

Early Saturday morning, I get up to let the dog out, then take the hummingbird feeders outside (the sun has just come up). I go back to bed to see this:

You ever heard that song by Simon & Garfunkle, Cecilia?
"I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed
Someone's taken my place."

The ratbastard's name is Harley.

Smart doggie!

He's just keeping it warm for ya!

Yeah, and this morning at 3AM, he jumped up on the bed... all 90lbs of him... front paw squarley into my crotch.

That was a rude way to wake up.

This is what Phoenix is known for....

I think I'd rather have that than the cats, who always seem to land there with claws out...

Howdy.

Yesterday was Help-Portrait day across the world. We set up again at the Calgary Drop-In Centre. Being cold, the place was full, but we did not get a lot of people from other parts of the city like we usually do, as we sent out messages to lots of different agencies throughout the city, to advertise for anyone to come in and get a free 8x10 photo. We still managed to do 689 portraits though. What a great day of having fun with other photographers, make-up people, and general volunteers, all while helping put a smile on the faces of other in an unfortunate situation.

i hear everyone talking about it being low to mid 20F...and to me thats leave the house in a light sweater weather.

here is getting down to -40F and its 3 layers of clothing before you even consider going outside. sadly i've gotten used to it now, so i just take a jacket with me now.

I must live in the tropical part of Calgary, the coldest it has got in the north part of the city was a -34°C dip one morning last weekend. It got up to =14°C for our walk on Nose Hill today. Downright balmy I say, a good day to be a Calgarian.

yes the weather today was quite lovely. and there were points where it was getting as cold as -40 after windchill.

still bloody cold out regardless though. loved today, unfortunately i've had shoots all day today so i didn't get to enjoy it that much.

John, your old 256 cards got a good workout on Saturday. They work great for a shooting up to 10 JPEGS at a time.

I'd completely forgotten about those cards. I'm glad they worked well for you.

256 gig cards. WOW!! Awesome.
