Church Street

The Town of Ajax recently renovated one of our oldest churches, St.Francis de Sales, located on Church St. in Pickering Village.

These photos were captured before the changes and add-ons; St. Francis and Church Street’s surroundings at their finest.

Behold the turtle

“Try to be like the turtle – at ease in your own shell.” – Bill Copeland

Words to live by? I think so.

I’m so shattered

Duffin’s Creek attracts all types of pedestrian traffic, along with cyclists, skateboarders and rollerbladers. It’s used so frequently by the young and young at heart; so, it’s disappointing to see vandals destroy parts of it.

This photo was taken on it’s pathway, amongst a burnt down garbage can and an array of litter. Thankfully, the mess has been cleaned up since this image was captured.

Rockin shades

Whether it’s driving through Durham’s back roads or swimming in sparkling Caribbean waters, these pink Boathouse shades are a must-have, at least for me.

What can I say? I have sensitive eyeballs.

The little things

One of my main goals this summer: find loveliness in the smallest of things.

We are constantly surrounded by worldly charms – whether it’s outside our front door, en route to work, or vacationing at Blue Mountain. Beauty is simply everywhere.

To help me accomplish – or at least try to accomplish – this project,  I recently purchased a Sigma 70-300mm macro telephoto zoom lens.
