Horseshoe Driftwood – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.
As I was walking along the sandy beach, I saw this combination of driftwood that collected itself in the shape of a horseshoe. It is unique in design but is reflecting the path and flow of water that moved and created this delicate artwork. Mother Nature is the best creative artist of them all!
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.

Somehow, this beautiful, white flower has found a way to live, grow and bloom amongst the needles of the pine trees. It is delicate and fragile and the pine needles are sharp, prickly and dangerous to its continuing existence. It is like a very nice person who is positive and upbeat amongst negative and vile people affecting the essence of the individual.
This photograph was taken in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta.

Way up in the Rocky Mountains, there are hardy and beautiful yellow flowers growing out of rock. They are determined and strong to grow out of the sides of mountains.
I have to give them credit for being so tenacious and having a “Never Give Up” Attitude. You have to be in the mountains at the right time of year for them to be blooming.

This is an image of a pelican flying near a dock on Lake Winnipeg. I like the way he or she delicately takes off from the rocks to fly and seems to be saying “Look Ma, I can fly!” The other pelican is oblivious and looks like he or she is saying, “Boy, I don’t care. Stop showing off my brother/sister (pick one). We can all do that! Who really cares! I am going to ignore you.”
Their large beak and large throat pouch is used for catching fish and not carrying babies as fairy tales would have us believe. Too bad! They range in many areas and fossil evidence show that they date back to 30 million years ago. They are gregarious birds who hunt cooperatively and breed colonially. Pelicans are found on inland lakes and costal waters.
According to Wikipedia, “They have suffered from habitat destruction, disturbance and environmental pollution, and three species are of conservation concern. They also have a long history of cultural significance in mythology, and in Christian and heraldic iconography.”
