Roll off

So the last of the photos from Newfoundland has rolled off the 90 days folder. 90 days goes quick!

So what's on the top of the list?

This is from the Waterton ramble with Sean. That was a fun day, and included these waterfall photos that are about to roll off that folder. The first two are the little creek leading to Cameron Falls in town, that have been photographed to death and beyond. The three are Lundbreck Falls, which are pretty heavily photographed as well.

You can see other photos from that trip here. 

Of the Day

Driftwood (NZ)

Different angles for the same piece of wood.

Film

Taken for a specific reason relating to the current darkroom course. There is a digital version of this, and a funky printed version that looks entirely different. If I'd been on the ball there'd be a photo of the print, but that might give people entirely the wrong idea because I was being creative.

Newfoundland

Just a guy in a boat getting too close to a whale. And a puffin.

Why ever didn't I publish this, and maybe I did

The bedsteads of death, as I think of them. These used to guard the bike paths to keep motorized vehicles out. Or something. They've been gradually taken out, as they were a menace. The people that put them in thought that cyclists would dismount and walk their bikes through. Not, and, as if. 

There used to be a set at the bottom of a steep hill in Eagle Ridge, near the hospital. That one thing pushed me to ride around the reservoir clockwise, so I was going downhill to meet the bedsteads, as opposed to navigating them and having to then pedal hard uphill. I trusted my brakes. One time I had to detour around them, since an ambulance crew was untangling someone and their bike from bedsteads. Evidently they were riding down the hill and panicked. Oops. At least it wasn't far to the hospital.

The other place I remember them being is at the top of the Hill of Death in Fish Creek, near bridge one. There was the formal "Steep Hill" sign on them, but there was also a nicely painted, but unauthorized sign wired to it, saying "Walk bike, it's scary steep." Which it was. And is. I'd thought they were going to change the path what with some of the work related to the ring road, but no.
