Nodule of Life – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.
This is an extremely old elm tree. It has so much substance of life. It has been through a lot in life history as evidenced by its nodule where once a tree branch was part of this magnificent tree. I love the nodule for it is intrinsic in design and yet it has movement, flow and texture. The photo was taken at Assiniboine Park in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Canada.
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.

Old Water Pump
On a dark, gloomy day I came across an old water pump beside an old relic of a building. It is still there despite having been abandoned a long time ago. I found it while driving in the Interlake Region of Manitoba, Canada.

Old Sarum
Old Sarum dates back to 3000 BC. It is one of the earliest settlements in the Salisbury area of England. I took photos of the ruins and enjoyed the flow of the old rock of the structures and the flow of the green hills as contrast. The steeple of the new Salisbury church and community is seen in the distance.

Pacific Jellyfish
This is a photo of Pacific Sea Nettle Jellyfish. They have been roaming the seas for anywhere from 500 to 700 million years. They move elegantly with their gelatinous umbrella-shaped bell bodies and flowing tentacles. They dance as if to music and I was quite mesmerized by them. They range in size from 1 millimeter to 2 meters in size for their bodies. Their nerve net system is in their epidermis. Some jellyfish are light-sensitive through something called ocelli while some jellyfish have up to 24 eyes, 2 of which can see colour. As you can see, there is quite a range. They also have a life-cycle going from polyps to the medusa stage.
Thank you for liking, commenting and/or sharing. Mary

Because Canada is a younger country, weather records show that this is the latest spring on record in Winnipeg’s history in 141 years. As such, this picture is interesting because it is a month after Spring has officially started and yet the Seven Sisters Damn on the Winnipeg River is still very solidly frozen with ice and snow. Seven Sisters was originally known as Seven Portages.
Further upstream on the Whitemouth Falls, the water is starting to open. The River system flows north to Lake Winnipeg which is the 10th largest fresh-water lake in the world. There are 10 major watershed draining areas that contribute to this lake from Alberta on the west, to Ontario on the East and North Dakota on the south. It flows northward to the Hudson Bay and the Arctic Ocean. This generation station is responsible for many hydro lines directly into Winnipeg to provide electrical power and service to this community.
