Little bits of everything

My first year at Loyalist is not so much winding down as it is speeding up. I think the end of April is going to feel like a train hitting a wall.

I've been shooting a lot lately, and a lot of variety too. Here are my last three days photographically.

From food...

BELLEVILLE, Ont. (29/03/11) - A lemon poses on a plate in Belleville on Tuesday, Mar. 29, 2011. The exact origin of the lemon is a mystery, though it is presumed that lemons first grew in India, Burma and China. Today the fruit is primarily used for its juice, although the pulp and rind also are used for culinary purposes. The sour, distinctive taste of a lemon makes it a key ingredient in dishes worldwide.

...to children who are unwittingly saving the planet by bathing together...

TRENTON, Ont. (30/03/11) - Logan Metcalf, 2, gets a bit of help from his sister Emily, 3, during bathtime at their home in Trenton on Wednesday, Mar. 30, 2011. The childrens' parents, Adam and Shari, were inspired by Earth Hour to try to reduce energy consumption in their home and are taking several steps to meet this goal, including bathing their children together. "I'm glad to be saving some water and it's actually easier on me too," says Shari, "plus the kids love it, they think it's great fun." Photo by Rachel Psutka. 

...to our mystery assignment, finding and writing a story on a local senior...

BELLEVILLE, Ont. (31/03/11) - Violet Bulmer, owner of Kraft Village, displays a wall of yarn in her store at North Front Street and Bell Boulevard in Belleville on Thursday, Mar. 31, 2011. Bulmer has run the oldest crafting store in the city since 1982 and has no immediate plans for retirement, despite her husband's wishes to travel. Along with the selling staples such as yarn and fabric, Bulmer also teaches lessons and repairs sewing machines. Photo by Rachel Psutka.

It's really quite busy, but it's still manageable.
