Really cold today in Toronto made even worse by the wind. Supposed to have a big dumping of snow but nothing has appeared so far!

Next week should begin the March back to summer. At least the temperatures will be above zero again. The cold in Canada has never bothered me one little bit but lately I have not been enjoying it too much. Must be something to do with age.

The weekend is over and it is back to work for another week. Never feel like not going to work but it does get extremely frustrating when there is no communication and having equipment and systems which either do not work or do not work properly.

Besides that there are lots of nice people to work with and despite everything I actually enjoy going to work. I would still much rather be a photographer though and would love to be able to spend a lot more time on the computer with Photoshop!

Oh well! Life goes on.

Not another blog!

Yes, I have finally got down to creating a new blog. I think it has become a necessity as I have been finding it really hard to keep up with all the emails that I get. It has been threatening to consume all my free time so that there is no time for anything else. Hopefully this way I can free up some time and concentrate on doing more on photography & Photoshop which is fast becoming a passion.

At the moment we here in Toronto are in a big freeze but fortunately it should not last too long. Next week the temperatures are expected to be plus zero and then Spring is just around the corner. Can't wait! This summer, with my new car, I intend getting out into the country a lot more than I have in recent years so that I can get a lot more in scenic photography.

Great news! Australia have finally been toppled from the ODI cricket rankings, a position they have held since the inception of the rankings seven years ago. They are replaced by the great cricketers of South Africa! Now for the World Cup in the Caribbean next month. We have been so close so many times so maybe this is South Africa's year. I'm holding thumbs!
