(32nd Week Photographing Daily)

This past week had no goal, no theme, so it ended up being a mix of whatever happened. The weather dominated at the beginning and sports took over, enjoy. 

2014 01 06 – A student walks along a path beside Miller Hall at Queen’s University as a truck spreads salt and sand getting ready for tonight’s flash freeze. Temperatures are going from 1 degC this morning to -15 degC tonight, feeling more like -27 with wind-chill. (Nikon D7000 w 55mm Macro f2.8 @55mm f4 1/200^th I.S.O. 100) 

2014 01 07 – Freezing temperatures and high winds have left Lake Ontario looking like the surface of shattered glass. Freezing temperatures were the result of the polar vortex shifting southwards, a cold-low pressure systems lies above the North Pole. (Nikon D300 w 50 f1.8 @50mm f8 1/2000^th I.S.O. 200)

2014 01 08 – An eastern grey squirrel peers out of a garbage can at Queen’s University. Their adaptive nature and introduction to the UK has lead to the displacement of the native red squirrel in many areas. (Nikon D300 w 70-200 f2.8 @200 f4 1/2500^th I.S.O. 400) 

2014 01 09 – Students skate on Tindall Field at Queen’s University, an artificial turf that soccer is usually played on. After a week of cold temperature, followed by warm temperatures and then a sudden deep freeze, the surface of practically any field has become a skating rink.

2014 01 10 – Queen’s Gaels #16, Kelly Jackson, gets a hold of the puck as Carleton Ravens #13, Damian Cross, goes for it during a regular season Ontario University Athletics game at the Memorial Centre. Carleton defeated Queen’s 4-1. (Nikon D7000 w 70-200 f2.8 @105mm f2.8 1/500^th I.S.O. 4000) 

2014 01 11 – Waterloo Warriors #4, Gillian Henderson, digs the ball after a serve by the Queen’s Gaels during Saturday’s match at the Athletics and Recreational Centre. Waterloo fell to Queen’s 3-0. (Nikon D7000 w 70-200 f2.8 @175mm f2.8 1/650^th I.S.O. 4000) 

2014 01 12 – Guelph Gryphons #18, Kayla McMullen, digs the ball during Sunday’s OUA match-up against the Queen’s Gaels at the Athletics and Recreational Centre. Guelph ended up taking three straight sets to win it 3-0. (Nikon D7000 w 70-200 f2.8 @130mm f2.8 1/640^th I.S.O. 4000)
