Yep. Whatever type of tree is in front of my place (I think they're Birch) have started dropping their seed pods all over the place. Buds are visible on the branches, no leaves yet though, but probably won't be long.

Yup, definitely spring in the Beltline.

Question, how far away are leaves from sprouting on trees in Calgary? Any signs of buds?
Leaves have been on the tree in my yard for about two weeks.

The trees around our office have had leaves for about 7-10 days. Here's how they look right now.

Congrats on your first HDR, but why now that the fad is over, and why that pic? I know you didn't ask for a critique, but I don't understand what the point of the picture is.

Sorry I don't mean to be critical, but I don't understand the importance of doing that pic in HDR, because I don't think HDR improved it that much.
I'm looking forward to your future HDR masterpiece, because this wasn't it! I know, your first time, experimenting...

ouch..lol It was just the back yard, and to see if I could even put something together that looked good. A proof of concept for me I guess.

Sorry, I didn't mean to slam you, but I have seen much better photos from you without HDR, so let's see what you can really do with HDR.
I like your Blackfoot shot Ramsay. That is a great place for action photography.
