Ready to sail to 2021? :)

Very Merry And Happy and White Christmas to all of you my friends!

Long time ago I composed a song called "winter rose" and now I have an image of it :) Well, image was taken few years back, but thanks to rainy weather and COVID I had time to work on it :)

Lovely memories of our travels ... :)

creating images in the fog ... we really liked the tranquility and atmosphere of Long Beach, Tofino, BC

More ... lovely memories of our travels ... :)

Another large print going to a happy customer!! This one is really nice ... 4 sections that allowed us to create larger than " normal" large size print!! ... And yes, I do need haircut

sunset at Long beach ...

Did I mentioned that I really like to do large prints? One of my (now sold) favorite creations - "Ghosts of Vancouver"

a bit of creativity - what do you think about this guys?

Wow! Never saw this with my photo ...Looks great don't you think ...

West Coast light ... I really like spending time on the West Coast of Vancouver Island - one of my favourite places to go ... #westcoast #canada

Red Canoe - at Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada ... #Beauty of #canada

Golden road - somewhere in Kananaskis country, Alberta ... beauty of Canada

Flow at Athabasca Falls - beautiful spot along the Icefields Parkway ...

All the best - and peace and happiness!

"Stairway to heaven" - or morning in the mountains - just use your imagination ! :)

On our trip from Banff to Waterton park we have visited beautiful Wedge pond at #kananaskis .. #fallcolors are absolutely amazing ...

What goes up - will go down ... and yes, you can apply to anything and "anybody" you can think of :)

You know you have great spot for camping when you look up and see the Milky way straight above ! It was absolutely magical ! #milkyway

Latest installation of my photos ...this is the largest "split canvas" ..5 sections all together 17 feet wide and 7 feet tall image ..it was fun to install and looks beautiful! I really like the customer choice of complimentary waterfall image in the back ( looks small but it is 39"x 52" ) ... get one of these for your house or office - www.vladimirkostka.com

Long evening at the Blue Lotus Gallery in Tsawwassen Mills mall ...but we did lot's of work! And who would not jump with joy after seeing all the works on the wall! ;)

Tonic for the soul! .. . canoeing in the places like this is one of those amazing experiences that Lynda calls : " Tonic for our soul! " Gliding on the water surrounded by nature is so relaxing !!!

It's time to start printing again! Stores are going to be open soon ! :)

Breaking! It would seem that the "#Physical #distancing" rules are completely ignored by the inhabitants of some islands just off the coast of BC ! :) Worth investigating - anybody heading that way and have spot in their boat ? :)

They are coming out! :)

#Happy Photo of the Day ... this time from Greece - Milos Island and yes, this was way before social distancing became a norm ... :) Have a beautiful day my friends! And lot's of colourful sunsets! :)

#Happy Photo of the Day ... Since we can not go out to visit this lovely place in Ucluelet on Vancouver Island due to a travel restrictions, I brought it into our living room :) 8' (240 cm) width will bring you in :)

A bit of Canada here :)

Lynda is doing her best to do physical distancing :) .. well, this was way before it was required .. I guess she just needed a bit of space from me :) Ucluelet, BC, Canada - Long Beach in the fog...

#Happy Photo of the Day! Kayaking in Ucluelet, BC, Canada - few years back we were asked by our friends to join them on the trip to #Ucluelet. We agreed and experienced one of the most amazing trip ever! Fantastic nature walks, great company and one of the most amazing #kayaking ever! This is John floating into the unknown :)

Social distancing will help all of us! :) Look at the tree!! Still lovely green!

Feeling good images ... From now on, every day, I will post at least one "feel good" image for all of you my friends. Hopefully, they will help you to "refocus" and feel better :) And here is the first one " The morning glow" - taken yesterday early morning in our backyard using very old Russian lens that creates those lovely circles for out of focus area! Enjoy your day my friends! And if you feel like it - share this joy with your friends! :)

Please share if you want to help ... (And potentially receive one of my photos :) )

That's it! Just a positive images from now on :) Lovely moon rise last night! Ducks enjoyed it as well! :)
