This should be an interesting challenge. Good choice.

I love photography - I only really discovered this last year when I started playing around with it as a hobby and it didn't take long to realize it's want I really like to do.

Below is a picture of my dad's old camera, he was a wedding photographer when I was very young. He gave me his old camera gear when I started showing an interest in photography.

Ok this is kind of lame but I love my pets (not literally fotze) - I'm not really an animal lover but over the years the animals that my wife has collected have started to grow on me plus they make pretty good models for photos.

My other two hobbies, the flames and golf. The only catch is that I have a rule where I don't golf until the flames do.

Here's mine:



Lake McKenzie on Fraser Island off the coast off the coast of Australia. Sand so fine you can polish your jewelry with it, water pure enough that they tell you to not use sunscreen, perfume etc. when you visit. Easily my favourite place in the world (so far...) !

s that the Trumpeter lily? Quite tall, large flowers? I would love to grow them but for some reason, in Priddis, I guess because a bit more exposed than in the city, they just don't work for me.

Its an Asian Lily...Im sure its not part of the Trumpeter's as I have some of those too. These ones are about 5 feet tall with flowers that are a foot in diameter or more. Spectacular and hardy...but your right, I doubt they would grow well in the zone around Calgary. Its much warmer, and our growing season is longer here in KW and Ive been awed at what I can grow out here in comparison.

Maybe this should be very obvious, but where is KW?
