Stampede life is a blur

Water from the rain on Sunday got inside the lens housing of my compact camera. This is a random shot through the condensation, producing an abstract representation of the Calgary Stampede midway.

Howdy, cowboy!

I went back to the Stampede today to visit the animals, something I neglected to do on my last visit. Click here to see more pictures from Stampede.

Stampede Saturday

Night rider
Spent last Saturday strolling on the grounds of the Calgay Stampede. I’m not a rides person but I did ride the Sky Ride cable-car to snap the above photo at sunset. Might go back this weekend to see some of the agricultural exhibits, which I missed last week. I also didn’t eat any of the weird food they serve there — hot beef sundae and deep-fried cheesecake, for example. Hmm. Click here to see more pictures from Stampede.
