The dark shadows of the trees contrast nicely with the water and the sun in this photo. It reminds me of being on a houseboat in British Columbia. At night we would park the boat on the shore and watch the sunset reflect on the water from the rooftop. The scenery of this photo also reminds me of our campsite at Waskesiu because of the way the trees surrounded our campsite. I enjoy the canoe in this picture because it looks like it would be fun to ride in. The water looks so calm and peaceful and makes me feel at ease.

I love this photo because it reminds me of my summer drives to Regina. Canola fields are so pretty because it’s nice being able to see yellow for miles. The flatness of the land reminds me of home and gives me a safe and happy feeling. I like how the sky is such a bright blue because it looks pretty against the fluffy white clouds and the beautiful yellow field. The little shed is something I would typically see on the grid road between Rouleau and Regina. It makes me wonder about the history of Canadian land, and what the shed was used for before it was abandoned.

Fall in Canada is so beautiful because all the leaves turn beautiful and bright colours. This photo reminds me of travelling down the long lane to a friend’s house. My favourite part of this photo is the red barn in the background. Red barns give me a feeling of happiness and makes me wish I lived on a farm. The tree looks so large and comforting; I would love to take a book outside to read under the shadows of the tree.

This photo makes me want to frolic and run around with my dog. I can just imagine my dog’s white tail peaking out of the tall grass. It reminds me of when my family went on picnics. We would take a blanket and lay it out to have a picnic on the grass. I would love to go lay in the tall grass on a summer day to daydream. I enjoy how Canadian skies are so clear, blue, and unpolluted.

Although winter isn’t my favourite season, I still love the way the snow looks when it collects on the trees. I like that there are so many different kinds of trees in this picture. The snow-covered hill reminds me of when I was younger and my sister and I would go tobogganing with my Nana and Papa at Regina Beach. We would climb to the top of a hill or a snowy road and slide down it for an entire day. After doing this, we would go back to their house and drink hot chocolate and huddle up by the fireplace. This photo makes me feel like getting cozy in a big blanket with a warm drink in my hand. Winter also reminds me of Christmas, which is my favourite holiday.
