do nothing,
be nothing”

Even if you say nothing, do nothing and be nothing you will still be criticized…..

Once you get to the Alberta Badlands, you need to go to the Dinosaur Museum…Royal Tyrrell Museum. An amazing display of bones artistically arranged. The most complete collection of preserved dinosaurs in the world.

Less than 24 hours old the baby zebra at Greenview Park and Zoo was snuggling it’s mother looking for more food. It’s mother was watching to ensure we didn’t get any closer to her most precious treasure. ❤

Porte Photos’ School Photos:

Our local contracted school photographer is now using background replacement technology instead of using a real background. This often results in “helmet head” especially for people with naturally curly hair or unnatural colours. So if yours came back as helmet head or unnatural colours, having retakes by the same photographer will have the same result. I can do “school photo like” photos of a much better quality for the same price or less and you get the jpgs so you can print or share on social media.
