We just came back home from Calgary after spent a great weekend there with our friends. I collected some good shots and I'm looking forward to showing them to you this week.
But for today's I prepared the fresh ones from our last part of the trip.
It's difficult to take photos from the moving car and we decided to leave the highway and make a detour. The last 100 km we drove through the countryside where you could find much more interesting stuff, you can stop the car and take your time for photographing.
I had a similar poster of an old abandoned barn in my basement many years ago in Slovenia and I couldn't even remotely imagine someday I'll be taking photos of it 8000 km away in a new country.
And here I am.
Never say never.
The beehives on the photo are owned by a hobby farmer.
But beekeeping is a big business here on prairies if you didn't know. They move bees around with semi trucks and sometimes even trains. Bee farmers have a couple of thousands of bee colonies each.
This water tower is a Trademark of the town of Wetaskiwin and they are also known for the lowest prices of cars in this area.
Strange name, isn't it?
It's in the language of the Native people.
Short coffee break with cheese and strawberry cake on our way to Camrose.
Commercials and advertising is a serious issue and entrepreneurs know how to do it.
This one got my attention for sure. I even stop and park my car to take some good shots.
This is just one of them.
Horses on the pasture.
July classic view.
Another classic from the wild west.
Range Road we call them here.
Gravel roads with rocks.
You can't find a car without a cracked windshield. Or a clean car either.
Hot summer temperatures are a boon for algae. Ponds and smaller lakes turn green and they look dirty.
But photographers like the bright green color.
It's almost 4:30 and that cake is gone long ago and the fridge is empty too. Time to go out and find something to eat. See you tomorrow when I'll be back in the tracks.
Have a great day, my friends.
