Sylvia's Simple Shots

Beaumaris Lake has been a great go to place for photography this year.  Big trips have not taken place.  This lake has enough landscape to provide a variety of photographic fodder.

Here is the water reflection of the hand rail around one of the many view points along the walking trail. Love that absolutely blue Alberta sky.

Does it look like birds all facing one direction?

We don't get a lot of red leaves here in this province.  I found a few. 

An nice trio of gorgeous red maple leaves against that grey bark of the tree.

We have an about 5 block stretch of road along a main throughfare in our city where Manitoba Maples are planted.

At this time of year, cars are parked on the edge of the road end to end along the whole stretch.  Families are taking their photos, photographers are taking people shots with the red leaves, and it is just mayhem.

I found these at Beaumaris Lake.  I was so glad not having to stop at the busy spot.

A sweet shot of a single red berry with green leaves still on the branch.

Nice color dare I say Christmas colors.

We have had a beautiful fall with wonderful sunshine and warm temperatures.  Many shirt sleeve walks in October.

Angel Promises Fulfilled by Henry K. Ripplinger.  This is book five in the series.

Jenny Hamilton is enjoying her new home in Regina. The gardens are finally looking as she wants filled with wildflowers. The Thanksgiving Angel has arrived and been placed near the gazebo - a replica of the one she had at the estate in Ottawa. 

Jenny has resisted visiting Henry's gallery as she thinks he is still married and does not what to complicate his life.  In the meantime she would like to reconcile with her son after rift which precipitated the divorce.  Jimmy is rebuffing all her attempts at reconciliation.

At Eddy's wedding most of the major players are in one place, Father David is officiating, Peter is the best man, Henry is in the front row, ans Camilla is with her family.  Things are starting to fall in place.

While in the hospital deathly ill, Jenny asks her son Jimmy to sell her house as she will not be returning to it. He takes the easy way out and sells the house with all the contents as he does not want anything of his mother's. 

Henry and his son Josh look at the house with anticipation that Josh would be moving his family into the city but Henry is taken with the house.  It is perfect.  He buys the house lock, stock and barrel for himself to have a place to stay when he does not want to commute from the acreage. 

Father David Engelman has officially retire and moved to the senior's home.  He is still called to minister to folks so he takes on the residents as his new congregation.  He revives the chapel in the complex and starts to hold bible study and mass.  He is doing hospital outreach and has been visiting a very ill woman on her deathbed.

This book is full of miracles.  Finally, Henry and Jenny are wed!
