There's a bunch of new followers this weekend who I think clicked because of a poetry post so let me introduce myself. I'm Jeff, a Creative Director & photographer in Dirt City, Alberta. I do share poetry here but mostly my pictures (including NSFW ones), and some of my silly little thoughts.

My hot take is that this is SO much better than turkey dinner.
(I cooked both)

Shepherds Pie made from Christmas dinner leftovers is the fucking best.

This has been an unusually hectic holiday season for us so I've been on the "what the fuck day is it" train since about last Tuesday...at least I think it was Tuesday. Is it Tuesday now?

From now until New Years Day, I'm going to share 12 of my favourite photos from 2025 one from each month. Dolly & stumbled across this wedding in June & I noticed there was no photographer. I snapped this pic, went home, printed it, framed it & rushed back to give it to them. The bride was SO happy!
This scene captures a wedding celebration unfolding outdoors. A bride, adorned in a flowing white gown and veil, stands under a simple shelter structure with a corrugated metal roof. She is joined by a man in a dark suit, likely her father, who is escorting her or giving her away. The atmosphere is one of joy and anticipation. To the left of the bride, a man in a checkered shirt places a hand on the suit-clad man's back, seemingly offering congratulations or support. Another man stands beside him, clapping his hands together in a gesture of applause, while a woman in a colorful, patterned coat stands to the side, smiling and watching the events unfold. Several other guests are visible in the background, some standing and others seated in chairs arranged on the lawn. The setting appears to be a park or garden, with green grass covering the ground and various trees providing a natural backdrop. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with a somewhat muted quality. The overall impression is one of an intimate and joyous occasion, surrounded by loved ones and nature's beauty. Bouquets of sunflowers can be seen on the ground, adding a touch of rustic charm to the scene.

The image captures a serene moment with Dolly the brindle pitbull lounging comfortably on a dark green, tufted couch. The dog, predominantly brown with darker brindle stripes, is lying on its side, its head resting on a soft, light beige blanket. The dog's eyes are partially closed, conveying a sense of relaxation and contentment. The couch has a tufted design and is accented with a colorful, patterned pillow in the background. A black blanket is partially visible, adding depth and contrast to the foreground. The lighting is warm, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere in the room. In the background, glimpses of indoor plants and a window with a patterned curtain can be seen. The texture of the blanket appears soft and plush. The overall composition of the photograph is intimate and peaceful, emphasizing the comfort and tranquility of the scene. The dog appears to be in a deep rest, undisturbed by its surroundings. The colors in the image are rich and muted, contributing to the warm and inviting atmosphere. The scene evokes feelings of comfort, relaxation, and the simple pleasures of home. The lighting casts soft shadows, enhancing the textures and contours of the dog and the surrounding objects. The dog's fur is short and sleek, contrasting with the fluffy texture of the blanket. The image is a snapshot of a quiet, personal moment, capturing the bond between a pet and its comfortable domestic environment.

From now until New Year's Day, I'm going to share 12 of my favourite photos from 2025, one from each month. This shot from May with Skylar was taken on the LRT underground as we left downtown. Loved her look for this shoot and the way the lights reflected off her glasses.
The photograph captures a young woman sitting on a train seat, illuminated by the cool, dim light. Her pose is relaxed, with her head leaning back against the train's wall and legs stretched out in front of her. She is wearing glasses, a dark jacket, and loose pants, paired with black boots. The train seat has a distinctive color scheme of blue and yellow. The light source above, a fluorescent tube, casts a soft glow, highlighting her face and creating a contrast with the surrounding shadows. The atmosphere is introspective and calm, evoking a sense of solitude. The dark backdrop of the train window adds depth to the composition, with the light fixture's reflection adding a subtle visual element. The textures of her clothing and the seat upholstery are discernible, enhancing the realism of the scene. The lighting is a key element, defining the mood and emphasizing the subject's features. The overall color palette leans towards cool tones, dominated by blues and blacks, which creates a somber and contemplative mood. The composition frames her as the central focus, with the surrounding elements providing context to her environment. The image conveys a sense of urban life, captured in a quiet, unguarded moment. The darkness accentuates the light, drawing the viewer's attention to the woman. Her expression appears thoughtful, perhaps tired, contributing to the narrative suggested by the photograph. The scene feels candid, like a fleeting glimpse into a personal moment on a public transportation. The composition is balanced by the linear elements of the train's interior, which guide the eye towards the main subject.

I give you the 2025 Griswold...er Woodward family Christmas portrait.
This is a heartwarming holiday photo of a family gathering indoors. Six people are visible, arranged in a semi-circle, with a Christmas tree as the focal point in the background. The people are dressed in festive attire, including Santa hats and elf hats, suggesting a Christmas theme. The backdrop includes a warmly lit living room setting with paintings and shelves. The lighting is generally bright, emphasizing the cheerful and festive mood of the gathering. The family members are smiling and appear to be enjoying the holiday season together. The Christmas tree is adorned with colorful lights and ornaments, contributing to the festive atmosphere. The composition of the photo suggests a staged family portrait intended to capture a joyful moment during the holidays. The colors are vibrant, with reds and greens dominating the scene, adding to the overall holiday spirit. The textures are soft, suggesting a cozy and comfortable indoor environment. The spatial arrangement places the family members close together, indicating a sense of unity and togetherness. A sign at the bottom of the image reads "oh, what fun! HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM THE WOODWARDS TO YOU!", reinforcing the holiday theme.

Great thread. I'm an atheist (and had some terrible experiences when part of a church that helped lead me to that) so it would be hypocritical of me to attend church, but I REALLY miss the community of being part of a religious institution. People shouldn't knock it lightly.

Someone posted that they don't oppose ppl having spiritual lives per se, but they oppose it being institutionalized as a religion

I'm sympathetic to concern about abuses of institutions, esp if they claim divine authority, but their post fundamentally misunderstands what spiritual life is 1/11

From now until New Year's Day, I'm going to share 12 of my favourite photos from 2025, one from each month. Dolly and I encountered this cool as hell young woman while on a walk in April. I asked if I could take her portrait, she smiled and said yes and then took off. 😂
The photograph captures a person skateboarding on a paved path bordered by patches of snow, set against a clear blue sky. The individual, facing away from the camera, is dressed in dark clothing and wears a backpack with a colorful pattern. Their posture suggests balance and motion, as they glide along the concrete surface. To the left, a red brick building stands with a street lamp extending upwards, accompanied by a signpost. The presence of snow indicates a cold season, contrasting with the bright daylight. On the right, a fence stretches into the distance, adjacent to what appears to be railway tracks and parked train cars. The sky, a uniform blue, fills the upper half of the image, providing a backdrop to the scene. The scene is bathed in natural light, which casts shadows and highlights the textures of the snow and pavement. The image conveys a sense of solitude and movement. The textures are varied, ranging from the smooth concrete to the rough brick and the crystalline snow. The cool color palette contributes to the winter ambiance, while the skateboarder adds a human element to the urban landscape. The photo is a blend of urban and natural elements, capturing a moment of activity in a quiet setting.

My mother is coming for Christmas tomorrow so I decided to polish up her grandmothers silver tea service as a surprise. First of all, it’s an oddly soothing task to polish silver. Secondly, wow it’s beautiful!

In the days leading up to Christmas I always like to share some old Christmas cards and photos that @feistywaters.com & myself have done over the years together. This is our 2022 photo and card. It might be my favourite we've ever done, for lots of reasons.
This is a high-angle, full shot of two individuals lying in the snow. The person on the left is wearing blue jeans, a red and black checkered flannel shirt, and a black jacket. They also have a grey scarf around their neck and a red and white striped hat. Their arms are crossed over their chest. The person on the right is dressed in a festive, Christmas-themed outfit, consisting of red pants, a green shirt with a white collar and a belt buckle design, and a black jacket. They are also wearing a red hat with a fur trim. The snow is white and covers the ground, with some texture and depth. The lighting is soft and diffused, creating a wintry atmosphere. The overall tone of the image is lighthearted and fun. The composition is balanced, with the two figures positioned diagonally across the frame. Their bodies make slight impressions in the snow around them. Both people appear to be smiling slightly. The dark jackets create contrast against the bright white snow. The image evokes a sense of joy and playfulness during the winter season. The scene suggests a candid moment captured while enjoying a snowy day. The textures of the clothing and the snow are prominent, adding to the visual interest. The individuals seem relaxed and comfortable in the snowy environment. The image is well-lit, highlighting the details of their clothing and the surrounding snow. The presence of snow suggests a cold and possibly festive time of year. The image is a holiday greeting card featuring a collage of photographs. At the top left, the text "WITH SNOW & LOVE," is displayed above a photograph of a couple lying in the snow, making snow angels. The man is wearing jeans, a plaid shirt, and a dark jacket, while the woman is in red pants, an elf-themed shirt, and a dark jacket. A paw print graphic is placed above the right side of the top portion of the image. To the right, there are two images of a brindle dog wearing festive sweaters, one red and one with a Christmas-themed design. The bottom of the card features the text "HAPPY HOLIDAYS!" followed by "DECEMBER 2022". The card has a textured, off-white background, giving it a warm, festive feel. The overall impression is cheerful and personal, suitable for sending holiday greetings to friends and family. The scene evokes a sense of joy, warmth, and holiday spirit. The subjects in the images are enjoying the winter season and holiday festivities. The lighting is bright, suggesting a sunny day for the outdoor photo and warm interior lighting for the dog portraits. The composition is well-balanced, with the text and images arranged in a visually appealing manner.
