Photo Friday

Okay I think it's fairly obvious that yesterday's wedding feature inspired today's Photo Friday Feature.

To me fairs just scream summer. Rides, games and the food, oh the food! The one ride you won't catch me dead on is the ferris wheel. Posting this picture is about the closest you'll ever get me to one. They may not be my favourite contraptions but I do love this photo! You can find it in the shop buckscountryframes on Etsy. This is a fantastic shop so be sure to check it all out!

Photo Friday

Okay I just realized it's Thursday! Ooops...haha. Oh well I don't care. I'm leaving this post up. Happy Friday one day early everyone! Tee hee!

I went to Etsy, typed in Photography and on the first page I saw a picture (above) titled Lethbridge. I grew up in Lethbridge. Now one expects to see photos of Paris or London but cetainly not of Lethbridge so you can image my surprise when I came across this. I explored further and discovered that Geufel who is based out of Berlin has done a whole series of photos on Lethbridge and Alberta (the province Lethbridge is located in). It would also appear that Geufels Etsy banner is a picture of the High Level Bridge which is located in Lethbridge. So that was it, there was no question....Geufel would be this week Photo Friday Feature. I hope you enjoy Lethbridge (above) and Alberta (below). Click here to check out more photos by Geufel and here for his blog.
