Blue Prince

There’s a rumor going around that if you kiss a frog, he’ll turn into a prince. What if it was a blue frog like this one from a Mural that covers Pet Traders at 1333 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg? Would he turn into a blue prince? What if you accidentally kissed a toad? Don’t worry!

Toads are Frogs

Sea Bugs?

I was in the lane behind 445 River Avenue in Winnipeg. I was shooting the centered piece of Graffiti Art, but when I saw a giant bug I ran for cover.

Fence #2

I was frozen with fear as I heard Sherrie (My Official Driver and Photographer)  shout, “Hold it! Don’t move! That’s It! Got it!” I was sure she’d slain one.

Not that it’s less creepy, but now that I look at them they might be Ocean or Sea Bugs?

Rainbow Beauty, Too

This is not the best shot I took of these Rainbow Beauties that grace Rainbow Stage, but I inadvertently captured their reflections in a puddle. I love it!

They are so gorgeous that I am dedicating a Post to each one. Here is “Rainbow Beauty, Too”
