Ottawa Daily Photo: Fireweaver Sophie
https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/fireweaver-sophie.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Saturday, August 15, 2015. Sophie the fireweaver was another act I caught during the buskers festival (though I wasn't around when the torches came out). She incorporates dance, juggling, and the performance style of poi into her act. When I came across her on Sparks Street, she was juggling before moving into some knifework. And yes, it did end up looking like she was dancing. August 15, 2015 at 12:05 AM. She is putting ...

Ottawa Daily Photo: Brace Yourselves, Winter Is Coming
https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/brace-yourselves-winter-is-coming.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Sunday, August 2, 2015. Brace Yourselves, Winter Is Coming. Or going, if you live in the Southern Hemisphere. I can think of the odd person who might want to strangle me for mentioning winter. If it doesn't quite ring a bell, click here. Inside the Aberdeen Pavilion at Lansdowne Park, a number of panel displays were put up on a wall last winter about my very favourite season (did I mention I love winter? Well that is some...

Ottawa Daily Photo: Fine Arts Of The Past
https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/fine-arts-of-past.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Fine Arts Of The Past. Outside the Bytown Museum on Colonel By Day, these women were working on traditional sewing handiwork. I've not seen this done before, so I took a detailed shot of their work as well. Perhaps one of you might be familiar? The colours of these fabrics caught my eye at a nearby display. More from here tomorrow, but we'll leave off with a shot of the Canal and the Chateau.

Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Thursday, August 6, 2015. Distinctiveness In Pure Simplicity. St Joseph's is an Anglophone congregation here in Ottawa, one that is partnered with a neighbouring Francophone Catholic church, the Eglise Sacre-Coeur, which was also founded by the Missionaries Oblate. I photographed there before the weekend, and should be posting those shots later in the month. There is a video. August 6, 2015 at 12:13 AM. St Josephs is a ge...

Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Friday, August 14, 2015. Buskers In The Act. Today I am starting off my series from the buskers festival, held on Sparks Street at the beginning of August. I photographed several of the buskers, though not all of them, over the course of the weekend. Where possible, I'll provide links for a performer's site or Facebook page. Having a hand impaled. His website is here. Slowly. He can be found on Facebook. Oh how fantastic ...

Ottawa Daily Photo: Vengeance Of The Dark Lord
https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/vengeance-of-dark-lord.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Friday, August 7, 2015. Vengeance Of The Dark Lord. Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedies." Groucho Marx. A fool and his money are soon elected." Will Rogers. Um, I mean. unleash the election! Weeks of this nonsense. I can hear my American readers ask themselves how eleven weeks could be endless when they're used to pundits already.

Ottawa Daily Photo: By The Celtic Cross
https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/by-celtic-cross.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Thursday, August 13, 2015. By The Celtic Cross. The cross stands out as a monument here. It includes inscriptions in English, French, Gaelic, and Algonquin. Of those who lived to see the Canal finished, many of them settled here instead of returning back across the sea. Their roots run deep in the Ottawa Valley. August 13, 2015 at 12:11 AM. To die so far from home, this is sad. August 13, 2015 at 2:12 AM. Im fascinated wi...

Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Monday, August 10, 2015. A Taste Of The Macabre. The Victorian era is covered extensively within the Bytown Museum's collection, including a small statue of the Queen herself. Other items are a bit more conventional, such as the painting, the clock, or the tableware. August 10, 2015 at 12:08 AM. August 10, 2015 at 2:33 AM. Interesting museum and photos. August 10, 2015 at 3:17 AM. August 10, 2015 at 6:09 AM. That last pic...

https://ottawadailyphotos.blogspot.com/2015/08/bytown-museum-exhibits.html
Photographic Wanderings Of A Canadian Loon Through The Nation's Capital And Beyond. Sunday, August 9, 2015. The Bytown Museum started out as a storehouse and treasury during the period of the building of the Rideau Canal, erected in 1827. The museum, which was started in 1917 by the Women's Canadian Historical Society of Ottawa, moved its collection into the three story stone building in 1951. The museum was the centrepiece of activities on Colonel By Day. The Union Jack is a good spot to leave off- this...
