Beaver Dam – Photography and Digital Work by Mary Mikawoz
Beaver Dam
The basis of this is a photograph I took at Elk Island National Park near Edmonton, Alberta. They have a number of hikes and walkways. This is the walkway going through the swamp area. There was this finely built architectural featured called a beaver dam on the left-hand side of the swamp.
I once saw and was in a replica beaver dam at the Manitoba Children’s Museum in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It was absolutely fascinating how the beavers build their homes.

I took this on one of my hikes and found beauty in the decaying of trees in the forest. From the old and death, comes rejuvenation and regrowth. It is a positive way of looking at life as we all have seasons that come and go as winter is to spring as to summer and to autumn.
I like the various states the wood is in and also the way the flowers have come to fruition amongst the rotten state of affairs.

The house is abandoned and you can see from the open window right through the house to the open door.
It is weathered and worn while nature in its greenery has started to grow back and recapture life in the prairies. In fact, I think clover has started to grow in the recesses of the wood.

Here is an image of an old house that is no longer in use and once upon a time saw better times. This is a relic from just north of Pinedock, Manitoba. There is overgrowth up and around this old home.

This is a pathway in Freeport, Bahamas. It was just perfect the way it was painted blue and also the ropes along its path were also blue. It was just so creative and wonderful.
It is similar to the marketplace in Freeport where there are buildings in beautiful colours everywhere.

I love the flow of the wood in the lower left-hand quadrant as it once had lived and now has died. I enjoy the fact that despited that new flowers are growing once again amongst the deadwood bringing new life.
The photograph was taken in the Interlake Region of Manitoba just west of Riverton.

These green grapes were growing under a canopy of wood trellises. This photograph is in memory of my Dad and his ability to grow any plants, indoors and outdoors. He had a trellis in our back yard that grew wonderful grapes. The great thing about grapes other than raisins is that they also produce wine.
