My Best Photography of 2016
2016, as I mentioned in my previous roundup post, was my year for photography. I bought my first (and, um, second) DSLR and really threw myself into improving my craft.

Dresden Day 1: Neustadt and Semperoper
Exams and Christmas are over, and I'm back! For now, here's another tale from Tristan's and my time in Europe in the summer of 2015.
When we decided
to go to Dresden, I was adamant about one thing: I really, really, wanted to
stay in the Neustadt (New Town). As it turned out, all the hostels in Dresden
are located in the Neustadt…and as it further turned out, all were already
booked. Oops (we’ll learn one day, I promise!).

Back in Winnipeg: Photos of Oak Hammock Marsh
I must once again apologize for belated and lacking posts. There have been some things in my personal life that have prevented me from writing. With that not necessarily being resolved and exams coming up, I can't promise that next week's post will be on time either, so please bear with me.
A few weeks ago, several of us headed out to Oak Hammock Marsh for the day, to do some hiking and get out of the city for a bit. Oak Hammock is a nature centre and bird sanctuary, not far north of the city. It's isolated enough that you really feel that you're in nature, but close enough that a day trip is perfectly viable.

5-Seen-Wanderung, Switzerland's Most Popular Hike
It started when I sent my my friend Michael (yes, the same one who was my host and guide in Baden) pictures of the hike I did at the Sardona Tectonic Area. In response, he expressed his envy and admiration, saying “how do you guys find all these amazing places to hike in?!”
