replying to @Touchse @Touchse @CharlesMcCool @FunInFairfax A2 #TRLT My entire July was a lesson in loss and creativity: $1200 in filters vanished, and my primary 24-105mm lens was destroyed. I had to get really creative in Tuscany, push through my mourning period 'cause it was nasty, but. I think I came out on top.

My trip to Ireland was very relaxing, even though I was driving for hours every day. Something about being in the car with the radio off, enjoying the beautiful scenery and the occasional sheep traffic jam. #TRLT #TravelTuesday

replying to @NewYorkHabitat @NewYorkHabitat In fact, Toronto doesn't get the real, nasty Canadian winter (tho Montreal does). It only gets really cold one or two weeks a year here, and most snowstorms kind of go around us bc of the heat bubble effect #TRLT

A2. Every day is an adventure whether on the road or not. My favorite scene is walking along the Grand Canal Dock in Dublin as the sun rises over the Poolbeg towers in the distance with the sky casting an amazing fiery glow. I make time for a walk every day before work. #TRLT

A2. I love the Arctic. It grew on me in 1997 & 2 years ago I finally returned & immediately was at ease there. This is me relaxing in the tundra of Greenland reading a book by @sihpromatum with just birds polarfoxes and polar hares around.
