Playing time again, with graphics, of course ;-)). Here's a photo taken the other day, manipulated to look like old paper print. The photo was taken from the van while driving.

Thanks, Emily :-). I'm glad I've managed to achieve the old feeling. Only thing is - the car is new :-)

Since the temp. is very low here these days, we can't go out to take fresh photos. Here are 2 photos from our camping trip to Vancouver, BC, last August:

• Another new series starts today, Sketches. Photos (never published before) made to look like sketches - that's the main idea. Fun project for Lorien, who LOVES to manipulate... *s*.

• And the photos of today... We were playing at home, and that's what we came up with:

Are you looking at me?

From the Calgary Zoo site:

"Calgary Zoo staff and volunteers are deeply saddened today following the difficult decision to euthanize Khasam, a male Siberian (Amur) tiger. Khasam was recently diagnosed with aggressive terminal bone cancer. Khasam was anaesthetized today to allow reproductive physiologists from the Toronto Zoo to collect semen so that his genes can be frozen for future breeding purposes. Veterinarians and keepers decided to euthanize Khasam following this procedure as, despite palliative care treatment, the keepers observed his deteriorating condition over the last few days and did not want him to enter a period of prolonged suffering".

He's gone. Many Calgarians are saddened today.

Gone
