Happier Winters


Prairie Snowscape - temptation to snow shoe or ski cross country!

Much happier memories are evident in the first winters captured in and around Saskatoon. Especially for often snow-starved Europeans, where snowfall brings much excitement, especially to children and all winter sports enthusiasts. This beauty in the landscape also called out to Fritz and many a family adventure began with the start of a new life in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

The Saskatoon skyline was a favorite motif, in all seasons.
