Selection of February

        Yes, I have to admit that sometimes I prefer taking just my phone with me and not my camera, to take eventual pictures, and it's just easier: you basically have less to carry or to care and pay attention about. And it's actually not that bad, my new nexus5 has a 8mpx camera, which takes pretty nice pictures even though it's just a phone. So since I haven't published anything new here for a few weeks I decided to upload a selection of phone pictures taken during this month. For example when I stayed at the Banff Springs this week or when I went ice skating on the lake here, just to keep everyone updated ;) 

        But there is not much to say: another month came to an end, too quickly I believe, it makes me kind of sad thinking about the time I have left here. It's just such a nice experience here, which makes you "grow up" and understand life from a different perspective. "Live the moment", I have to take that more in consideration!

Ice Magic by night

          I already shared some pictures of the ice sculptures a few weeks ago, but the real magic comes out during the night! So here we go...

Ice Magic

          Today I am off, again ...I almost miss my work place ;) Anyways, it's a good opportunity to get out of my bed and enjoy some fresh (very cold) air, so I decided to go to the lake and take my camera with me. The idea was to take pictures of the ice sculptures made a couple of weeks ago because of the Ice Magic competition this January. I know it's pretty late, the last time I went out they were still making the sculptures, but it's just that I had no time: lots of work, and then I got sick (and I am still kind of sick).

          Okay so I went out and I took some pictures, once again I got impressed by the beauty of this place, it's just amazing living here: the nature, the snow, the mountains... Everything! ...it's just a shame that I got to see the sculptures that late, they were almost covered in snow! Anyways, here are a few pictures, hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Oh and by the way, the theme of this years Ice Magic competition were the Olympic Games!
