SaskTel phone book cover – Saskatoon District

Here is sixth in the series of 2013 / 2014 SaskTel phone books with my image on the cover page. An image of teepee (tipi) poles in early morning fog is gracing the cover of Saskatoon District phone book. This image was taken one brisk morning at the Wanuskewin Heritage Park just north of Saskatoon. I was photographing a sun rising over the South Saskatchewan River and almost did not notice this simple and moody scene behind me. Teepee poles were glowing in warm light of the rising sun. Dark and rather cold-looking clouds in the background made the teepee structure stand out, while a light...

Update on the photography tour to Croatia

A short update on the photography tour to Croatia in September of 2014. My tour agent reserved additional rooms in a new place close to the boundary of the Plitvice Lakes National Park (days 6 and 7 on the photo tour itinerary). There is a chance that we will not be able to keep reservations for accommodation in a hotel within the boundaries of the national park; hotel rooms are going very fast and we do not have enough people with confirmed registration to make a deposit. Tourist centre “Marko” is located about 10 km north of the centre of the Plitvice Lakes National Park. It is...
