By now you all know how idle I can be. This picture is the type of capture I make at my most idle, as an excuse to not do something more like hard work.
There can be piles of washing up to do, something that needs fixing or a bill to pay. This is a situation when you need to be a busy idle to avoid this kind of work. To be seen to be busy doing something else means you have an excuse to not be doing something.
Banff is one of the most favorite places I’ve visited in my short life so far. This is the view across the nearby Vermillion Lakes. This looks a nice placid scene but I can tell you the moment I took this it wasn’t. There I was trying my best to quickly capture the view while my now wife along with my brother were shouting things like, “Hurry up, get in the car” and “Look out, a bear”. However, I managed to shut them out for a few seconds and loose my self in an idle moment while I composed this image.
