For the Saturday Self-challenge: Christmas traditions. My wife, the furthest violin on the right, added her skills to a small volunteer community orchestra at a fundraiser at La Cite Francophone, in Edmonton. They played a Christmas music program that raised 1200 Canadian dollars for families in need. My wife played professionally for years in orchestras at Christmas time playing Handel's Messiah, The Nutcracker Ballet, and even a Christmas concert with a jazz legend in our town at the local jazz club. Here she supports a group of amateurs in bringing good cheer for a good cause. Add to that the Christmas concerts of her piano and violin students and this season is full of musical expression. There were many people surrounding the two levels of this public space.

Saturday Self-challenge: long exposure. Bunny had to sit still for 60 seconds. Merry Christmas all.

My Alberta field guide does not list this species. Any help is appreciated.

Look up, look way up. Is that a new star in the East?

This is what happens to photographing fathers across the world. They get beautiful pictures of the family but no one takes their picture. This is a Christmas ornament I received from my family in, you guessed it, 1996. Merry Christmas to all who have visited my page during my first year on ipernity. I look forward to another amazing year of photographs and stories in 2015.
