Mosaic Monday – Sunrise, Sunset

Many years ago when I was in the sixth grade, I was chosen for the Boulder Valley Public Schools All District Spring Sing and Fiddler on the Roof was on Broadway. From that point on Sunrise Sunset has always been one of my favorite songs from a musical. The Photographers of Etsy have also found the beauty in watching the sun.

New Works!

I've been thinking about nature this week, I think maybe because the seasons are changing. Even though the fall is gorgeous and winter is so pretty, I'm already missing the warmer months as I put my jacket on before I go outside. I'm noticing that the light is changing. It splashes onto corners of brick buildings and the sidewalk, and when the wind blows I stop to listen for the rustling of leaves. I look to see them blowing down the street and I think to myself I can't believe how quickly the year flew by. If I start to feel a little blue about it, all I need to do is check out the photography on Etsy to perk me up. It really works! I chose these photographs this week because some of them remind me of the warm sun on my skin, cool lake waters and the promise of new seasons. And I chose a few others to remind me of the dazzling photo ops the rest of the year will bring.

Wanderings: True North



I recently returned from a quick getaway to Montréal, Québec (see my photo, above) and I have to say - what a visually inspiring place! From the beautiful, old city of Montreal to the farmlands of Quebec, the area is a landscape photographer's dream. After my trip, I decided to go on Etsy and check out what POE Team members had to offer for Canadian photography. Below are some shots that particularly blew me away. Hopefully they will inspire you to further explore Canada on Etsy or even grab your camera and head north...

Bay of Fundy Boardwalk - dsbrennan

Diana says that Bay of Fundy Boardwalk was in fact taken in Canada - in Fundy National Park of Canada in New Brunswick. It was taken mid-morning, along a hiking trail near the Point Wolfe campground.

The Old Fox Tower - Starsign

Craig tells us that the fox tower itself is located at Boonstra Farms, in the municipality of Rockwood, Manitoba. He took the photo from the middle of the corn maze that the owners of Boonstra Farms construct each fall. The fox tower has been open for people to tour during the Hallowe'en season in past years. The photo was taken on September 28, 2008 in early afternoon -- 1:05 pm, central time to be precise.

Winter - lynann
(Vancouver, British Columbia)

Wonderland - uncommondepth

Roberta says that Wonderland was taken in Red Deer, Alberta at one of the popular recreation areas. It was taken in January - probably mid-day. But this far north means mid-day sun is not that high in the sky.

Boats - Celticcatphotos

Husband and wife team Ken and Cathy Gangwer tell us that this shot was taken in 2005 in Labrador. Newfoundland, Labrador and Nova Scotia are their favorite places to shoot.

Kelowna Sky - theeye

Ellen tells us that this photograph was taken on Belgo Road which is just outside of town, and is full of orchards and farms. The sunset in Kelowna is difficult to capture as we are essentially in little bowl, surrounded by mountains. When the sun starts to set, I often take a quick car ride up to the Belgo area, where there is a ridge and a canyon, where I can observe the sky. What the view lacks in terms of the actual sunset it makes up for in spectacular colours, especially if there are clouds that evening. I'm awestruck by the colours Mother Nature paints the sky. We as artists can only strive to recreate such beauty in our own works, but Mother Nature is the clear master here. I noticed by the end of the summer, I usually wasn't the only person up there on the ridge inspired to take pictures at sunset.
