School Photos: Our local contracted school photographer is now using background replacement technology instead of using a real background. This often results in “helmet hair” especially for people with naturally curly hair or unnatural colours. So if yours came back as helmet head, 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.
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

Rarely is there such a perfect day as this one at Lake Erie. The lake was almost motionless, flat and quiet in a heat wave. Other local beaches had been posted as “No swimming” due to high e-coli, but Port Glasgow beach was still open. Early morning walks were the best time to avoid the heat. Rickie and I enjoyed our morning walk to the marina.
Christmas Eve is almost here. I’m looking forward to my family being here for our traditional Christmas Eve Gathering. Afterwards everyone heads home so Santa can find their trees and leave wonderful gifts. Including books.
