My brother's new apartment has some incredible views and it would've been churlish not to take some photos, you know?

Painting the Sky: Summer Edition

So over the summer, I would take a photo of the sky if I thought it was particularly beautiful or interesting, and I somehow accumulated quite a lot of them. Now that fall is in full swing, I thought I'd share some of these.


Okay, but how cool is it that I caught that rainbow?

Photolog 2022: Snow Day

First blizzard of the season
The sunset after the blizzard
There was a pretty crazy blizzard today. We've gotten over 30cm of snow, schools and government services are shut down, highways are closed, and people have been stuck in traffic for hours. But at least the sunset was pretty.

Photolog 2020: Day 241 of 366

Semi-weekly painting in the sky. Sunrise is getting later now, which means summer's almost over! Woohoo!

Photolog 2020: Day 224 of 366

Weekly painting in the sky. Looks like it's gonna rain today. Even nature is mourning the end of my long weekend.

Photolog 2020: Day 217 of 366

This morning's sunrise, a.k.a. this week's painting in the sky, a.k.a. Denise is back to her normal schedule again.

Photolog 2020: Day 203 of 366

Here's this week's painting in the sky, just after sunrise, around 6:15AM. Gotta say, though, I prefer seeing the sunrise before going to bed than after waking up.

Photolog 2020: Day 197 of 366

Painting in the sky, a.k.a. weekly sunrise photo.

Photolog 2020: Day 190 of 366

Today's sunrise. I won't have this view anymore come September so I gotta take it in while I can.

Photolog 2020: Day 164 of 366

Obligatory pretty sunrise photo. (On my journey to nocturnality.)

Photolog 2020: Day 157 of 366

5:00AM. The blue hour. Getting ready for bed. I'm almost fully nocturnal again.

Photolog 2020: Day 140 of 366

Not gonna lie, having to wake up at 5:00AM after a long weekend really fucking sucks, but the sunrise this morning was so pretty that it almost made up for only getting two hours of sleep. (But T-minus 7 days until I start working 4:00PM to midnight! Everyone else hates this shift, but my nocturnal self is celebrating.)

Photolog 2020: Day 94 of 366

Sunrise, sunset. Another day, another dollar.

Photolog 2020: Day 65 of 366

Waking up at 5:30AM every day is, quite frankly, a torture. But at least I get to enjoy the blue hour every morning.

Photolog 2019: Day 342 of 365

Whereas I had to wake up way before the sun rose yesterday, I actually woke up at the ass crack of dawn this morning to go to work because of these fucking holiday hours that are the bane of my existence (and Reason #381 for My Resignation). On the bright side (no pun intended), I got to catch the sunrise and it was stunning. Unfortunately, it's Sunday, and I still have to go to work (Reason #92 for My Resignation).
