Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park – In Between Seasons
Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park – In Between Seasons
There is no doubt about it, we are in the midst of in – between times.
You can feel it in the changeable air. One day the weather teases with a sapphire blue sky and popcorn fluffy clouds but the thermometer is stuck in the “belows”. No sooner have you located last years spring jacket, the one that isn’t down filled, when it abruptly turns with a tempest opener the next day. Warm westerlies breeze across the prairies leaving patchy snow exposing scroungy vegetation. If you squint your eyes you may find a pleasing variation to this non committal, mainly monochromatic landscape, stuck between winter and spring, gasping for the change it wants from Mother Nature but forced to wait out the in between times. While you remain patient for a time you can bask in the temperate again, play with ways to look at the same place, it is always changing, you just don’t always take the time to look carefully.

Winter Walks – Get Up Early and Get Creative Part III
Early Morning Rays At Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park
Winter Walks Part III
Winter mornings are stimulating, you know it as soon as you step outside.
Guaranteed, there will be chill, but what about the thrill. Sometimes sharing the wee hours with someone infected with the desire to be out of bed in the dark is the ticket. Take a lesson from the dog world, they have attitude. Grab an enthusiastic dog who has been expressing the need to explore since the moment it heard you stirring from a long winter’s overnight nap and watch it beat you to the door. Any other overeager companion will do in a pinch. Gusto and passion on a wintry morning, even before the coffee has commenced it’s spell, that’s all you need to get out the door. Don’t forget your camera and a few trusty filters to hold back that beaming warm sun.
