I haven’t been out much lately as my little girl has been poorly (so sorry if i missed some of your work) however, yesterday i NEEDED to get out with my camera and luckily i didn’t have to go too far. This is the iconic Angel of the North – you can see it driving on the A1 – it is such a powerful symbol and awesome to see.

I was watching these lads when I was at the Angel – there were three of them – one is rolling down the hill at the moment. The were having great fun, pushing each other over, fighting etc then for split second they stopped and just stood and looked – there was something very gentle about the way they did it. Despite the bravado you could see something of a real friendship between them.

My new wolf friend seemed to like having his pictures taken – he stared “up close and personal” right into the lens. I believe it is only fitting to donate the proceeds of the sale of this image to a park that more than 200 wolves call home! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park

The bridge reminds me of an emotion of solitude, which is not to be confused with loneliness. The former leads to an internal peace and being one with nature and oneself while the latter was a feeling of being forced to be alone, deprived of freedom and choice. I used to call this photo “Peaceful Bridge” until a young patient of mine (at the time she was nine years old) explored the difference between solitude and loneliness. When the image was presented to him as an illustration, he exclaimed, “Oh, solitude is peace, inner peace!” And the true title of the piece was born.

My new friend posed and wanted me to get his face “right”, although I am still not sure that I did. I tried though. Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park

The doe took a little time off from busy eating for the photo opportunity, although she didn’t want to give up the tasty colorful leaf. By now everyone who has ever seen my work knows that I’m absolutely “addicted” to develop a deep relationship and establish an intimate communication with mule deer (we don’t have a lot of white-tailed deer around here). Everyday I go out there in the early mornings, hoping to have a close encounter! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada

The sisters knew they are beautiful so they posed for the camera for a long time until I got it “right”. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park

For David Parkin / I now love the angel just as much as you and I can totally understand the adoration you have. / I saw the Angel up close for the very first time today and I was dumbstruck. It is believed to be the largest angel sculpture in the world. / It is one of the most viewed pieces of art in the world – seen by more than one person every second, 90,000 every day or 33 million every year. / It is one of the most famous artworks in the region – almost two thirds of people in the North East had already heard of the Angel of the North before it was built. / Its 54 metre (175 foot) wingspan is bigger than a Boeing 757 or 767 jet and almost the same as a Jumbo jet. / It is 20 metres (65 feet) high – the height of a five storey building or four double decker buses. / It weighs 200 tonnes – the body 100 tonnes and the wings 50 tonnes each. / There is enough steel in it to make 16 double decker buses or four Chieftain tanks. / It will last for more than 100 years. / It will withstand winds of more than 100 miles per hour. / Below the sculpture, massive concrete piles 20 metres deep will anchor it to the solid rock beneath.

My dog River posing for a portrait in the snow. She has ALWAYS liked her picture being taken since she barely opened her eyes at two weeks of age. Her litter mates ran around when the camera aimed at them but she stood in attention every time a photo opportunity showed up! :) I’m sure she’d be glad that I donate the proceed of the sale of her photos to Nature Canada as she loves woods and her deer friends as much as I do! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada.

Here is a photograph of the famous 10 year old Angel Of The North statue which welcomes people to Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England.

This is a little bridge in my piece of the woods after the first snow. All is calm and quiet. Even the deer seemed to be walking gingerly – not wanting to disturbed the “peace”. Some may even say that the picture portrays a feeling of “eerie-ness” but for me, it’s just the quietness and serenity. This is why I’d like to do my part to keep nature this way! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada

My new wolf friend was determined to teach me how to howl after our shared lunch. He very “tenderly” took half of my sandwich from my offering hand with his mouth, lay it down on the ground and ate it layer by layer, slowly and savoringly, unlike my dog River, who would ALWAYS “wolf down” whatever is offered to her! :) So now he set out, just a few feet away, raised one front leg a tiny bit for emphasis and howled. I got down on all fours, copied the posture and did the same. Obviously he was a little dissatisfied with my learning so he repeated the whole thing another time. And this time he was happy with his pupil. What a patient teacher I had! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada

Here’s the lyrics to the great Aerosmith song called “Angel”. I’m alone / Yeah, I don’t know if I can face the night / I’m in tears and the cryin’ that I do is for you / I want your love – Let’s break the walls between us / Don’t make it tough – I’ll put away my pride / Enough’s enough I’ve suffered and I’ve seen the light You’re my angel / Come and save me tonight / You’re my angel / Come and make it all right Don’t know what I’m gonna do / About this feeling inside / Yes it’s true – Loneliness took me for a ride / Without your love – I’m nothing but a begger / Without your love – a dog without a bone / What can I do I’m sleeping in this bed alone Come and save me tonight You’re the reason I live / You’re the reason I die / You’re the reason I give / When I break down and cry / Don’t need no reason why Baby, Baby You’re my angel / Come and save me tonight / you’re my angel / Come and take me allright / Come and save me tonight.

The gorgeous male duck stood proudly as though it was summer while it was almost -40˚c! Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada Thought the colorful duck would like to contribute to the protection of his natural environment. :)

“The Angel Of The North”, written by Poet Sally Omar especially for me to compliment this photograph. I was in awe when I first saw him there / Inviting me to be in his care / Welcoming me with open wings / He made my heart sing / I had never seen him before / He is now someone I adore / THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH I am sure the Creator was there / And gave the artist the idea / To build an Angel so we could see / What one day Heaven will be / When I see him standing tall / I have no fears at all / THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH The Angel lets me know / That one day I will go / And be in the Heavenly Place / And see the Creator’s face / There the Angels with their wings / Will make my heart once again sing / THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH I cannot express / My feeling of happiness / When I see him there / Wings outspread in the air / I really think you should go and see / The Angel that means so much to me / THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH

There were many ducks in the little “live” stream that was surrounded by thick ice and deep snow and I caught three close-ups. Both males were looking towards the less colorful female and she was the only one who tried to look through the ice at her own reflection! So I thought perhaps narcissism does not only exist among mankind…. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada.

The fawn looked as though she could not be more than a month old as her fur was all soft to touch and fluffy. She moved slowly and gently and looked into the lens, as if to say, “Hi, my name is Baby Fluffy”. :) I thought she was the cutest of all as she has long eye lashes and shinny tender eyes. And of course I’m pretty sure my “Baby Fluffy” would not mind if I donate the earning from her pretty face to save her environment. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada
