Some shots of Edmonton's new Neon Sign Museum from Saturday; this has become quite a popular attraction, another large-ish group of photographers descended on it just as our group arrived. It is shaping up to be a spectacular attraction!

Ugh, tell me about it, I'd kill for some + weather.

I got a sunburn that day. I was one of only 4 people I saw out that day wearing shorts and a t-shirt. It was worth it! I did carry around a sweater though just in case.

Great street shots of Calgary! It definitely has it's own unique vibe that you don't often see in pics.

Wow thanks everyone. I didn't expect such a positive reaction to my pics. I'll be sure to get out and take some better ones once the trees start blooming early next month! This was my first time using my camera in warm "active" weather, so hopefully the quality will improve with experience.

My school too! Although it didn't look quite like that when I went there.

Funny, I was going to ask you to do a walkabout in Vernon and then what do you know!
