Show & Tell: Summer on the Flatland

Ok... after much computer induced angst, I do believe that I think I have overcome the challenge that is a slideshow on my blog! So, humble readers, for Show and Tell this week I submit 'Summer on the Flatland'. Most of the pictures were taken from a moving vehicle (I especially like the bug-splattered windshield one... oh so summer-in-Alberta). While I miss my mountains greatly, I cannot help but appreciate the beauty of the flatland at this time of year. I think some of my photography skills may be improving... I just need to work on taking pictures of people.



Please don't forget to stop by Mel's place to see what the rest of the class is showing.

  5. Pretty pictures! I so miss being in a place where I can see the horizon. I guess I'm the opposite of you. I'm from a (relatively) flat-ish area (well, an area where there are plenty of hills, but lots of wide open spaces between those hills), and I now live in a mountainous area with lots of tall trees. But yeah. I totally get the idea of having a longing for a certain type of landscape.

  10. Gorgeous landscape and good photography! I am in the PNW where we rarely see any flat lands, so this is alien and beautiful to me!

  11. This is lovely! For some reason, these photos really remind me of many books I read as a child (maybe I read a lot of flatland or prairie books?). Really cool. Thanks for sharing!
