Contrasts Quadrant

Contrast Quadrants – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

I call this piece “Contrast Quadrants.” This imagery reminds me of life. There are many different ways of looking at things. One of the best ways is by using a quadrant or a matrix. I think life looks different depending upon what your current perspective or point of view is at.

In one case, you are in a positive area and other times, you are negative. One side is left and the other side is right. One is blue and white while the other side is golden and black. One is up and the other is down or one is top and the other is bottom. One is dark and one is light. 

I have transitioned the pieces between the contrasting imagery. I hope you like it and provokes you into some thoughts about perspective about the meaning and use of contrasts in our lives..

As for me, I love beauty in all its forms. With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and feel as if I am “in the flow.” With my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time. I feel as if I am zinged when I capture that special shot and it is meant to be.

Polar Bear Splits

Polar Bear Splits – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

This is an incredibly gorgeous and huge white polar bear. He is relaxing or doing some yoga poses and stretches or gymnastics. He is definitely exercising of some sort or another. This is why I have called the photo “Polar Bear Splits.” He is stretching and relaxing until he is chillaxing. Onward and upwards for an incredible animal but also be very cautious because they can be very dangerous bears.

As for me, I love beauty in all its forms. With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and feel as if I am “in the flow.” With my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

Boating at Sunset

Boating at Sunset – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

This beautiful sunset shot was taken from a second floor structure in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. We were dining a ocean-side restaurant. The viewing of the sunset was gorgeous and very delightful. It has a brilliance of various colours that were orange, yellow and golden. 

The boat is travelling north along the Bay of Banderas. They were enjoying the salty breeze and the incredible and wonderful sunset.

I feel this view is nicely framed by the straw coming down from the roof of the building.

My Apple – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

This image is kind of funny and cute. This little squirrel had been chomping down on an apple that had grown on the front tree of our house. I have to give credit to my father for he had a green thumb and planted all the apple trees in the front and back yards.

He definitely noticed me as evidenced by his upright ears and bulging eyes. I think he was thinking, “Is she going to steal my deliciously, fine apple?”

Snow Geese

Thanks for appreciating, liking, commenting, purchasing and sharing.

Snow Geese – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

Actually, this photographic shot is pretty rare. Although I live in Manitoba, it is difficult to find Snow Geese in our neck of the woods. If you look at a migratory map, you will see that they go quite far up north. I caught this image as they were migrating south in the fall time. 

According to Wikipedia, “Snow geese breed north of the timberline in Greenland, Canada, Alaska, and the northeastern tip of Siberia…”

I hope you like this image.

Solo Silo

Thanks for appreciating, liking, commenting, purchasing and sharing.

Solo Silo – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

I love our drives around Manitoba. You see many granaries or silos around the prairie land. You also see many farmer’s fields that are in various stages of development whether preparing, seeding, watering, sunning, growing, enriching, harvesting or still in a fallow state. I feel that this is the same way with people too, reflecting our goals in life and how we proceed. The silent silo is alone and is standing for storage of crops.

I love the bright colours in this picture of blues, yellows and greens. It was taken in the Interlake Area of Manitoba.

With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood. With my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

Beautiful Red Fox

Thanks for appreciating, liking, commenting, purchasing and sharing.

Beautiful Red Fox – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

It is so rare to see foxes, let alone one as beautiful as this one. He/she was just moseying down the road near the forests. He/she was not scared of us at all. I think he/she is absolutely stunning.

Did you know they have excellent hearing and can hear rodents digging miles underground? Did you know their front paws have five toes while their back paws have four toes? Did you know their tail is over half its body length? Did you know they would make excellent triathletes? According to Jackson Wild, “Red foxes can run up to 31 mph, jump over 6 ft high fences, and they can even swim.”

I hope you enjoy the photo. I so love to take pictures of animals and particularly mammals.

With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and with my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

Light My Way

Thanks for appreciating, liking, commenting, purchasing and sharing.

Light My Way – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

One summer day, I was waiting for some people in downtown Winnipeg when I looked up and felt like I could not help but admire the city lights and the buildings. The lamp highlights the city that I call home.

Somehow even with one of the coldest temperatures in winter for a large size city, it is a delightful and friendly place with a population of about 750,000 people. Yes, that many people call it home. There are colder cities in the world but if I am correct, none have so many people living in them.

This photograph was taken beside the City of Winnipeg Police Station and features both older and newer architecture. It is not too far from the famous windy corner of Portage Avenue and Main Street. I hope you enjoy this unique view.

With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and with my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

Prairie Barn and Sky

Prairie Barn and Sky – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

It was a beautiful summer day when the heavens were opening up as they crossed the prairies. I have adored this barn as it seems to be perfection to me. I also love the perplexity in the contrast of the dark blue clouds versus the white fluffy clouds. They seem to be combining into what might be a great prairie storm coming in its midst. I love that you can see the direction of the weather pattern as it crosses the fields.

Veil of Tears Poem

Veil of Tears – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.

This is a photograph that I took of the winter sun low in the sky through the window. It has an hazy effect and had a melancholy feel about it. However, what I love about it is that it serves as a framework for the poem I wrote. I wrote it for those who are hurting and missing a loved one at this time of year, this one is for YOU!

Veil of Tears

by Mary Mikawoz 

As days change into nights
And nights into days
We see the passage of time 
Moments slipping by unnoticed

We trudge on in snow-laden streets
With cold in our feet, face and hands
But not in our hearts…

We remember those who have passed on
From one realm to another
We rejoice in their memories
And of the substantial love they gave us

We can choose to stand in a veil of tears
Wiping the currents of moisture from our eyes
Or simply initiate a wealth of gratitude 
For their Past Presence in our lives!

With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and with my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.
