A few random treasures

My son has a touch of the flu bug.  I have been working on my sites while he has been sleeping and have managed to get a few more listings nearly ready for posting. In the past week I have been thinking of ways to add more variety to my Etsy shop, and have come up with the idea of adding a few photo sets to the shop.  I will be offering them as sets of four, 4 x 6 photos, and have decided on the first one here: 

Lighthouses of Victoria, B.C.

This is going to be fun!

I was trying to organize my photo files the other day and found a few possibilities for both Etsy and FAA.  They have yet to be posted on both sites but I'm getting there. 
The first is a photo of a sand sculpture from the summer of 2010, photographed at a sand sculpture exhibition in Parksville, B.C.  I cropped the people out of the background of the shop, gave the photo a darker border, and I'm pleased with the result.

I spotted this raccoon near the Stanley Park Aquarium in Vancouver, B.C.  He was quite brazenly wandering around in full daylight, keeping to the shadows but seemingly unafraid.  The photo was originally in colour, but I thought he looked more dramatic in black and white, with a darker border added to the photo.


Butchart Gardens, Victoria B.C.  Always a wonderful place to photograph, as the subjects stand still most of the time!
