Aylmer Tractor Pull

Canada Day 2017:  Sunshine, rain, mud, people,noise.  That pretty much sums up the day.  Started with bright sunshine and beautiful cloud formations. Then the sky turned black.  I stood under a big tent with a steel post when the thunderstorm started.  I got out of there until early evening.  Rainbows.  Sunset.  Stars.  Bright lights...

Hamilton Waterfalls

Recently there has been lots of press about emergency rescues of people near several waterfalls in the Hamilton area. The following images were all taken before any access limitations were initiated.  At no time did I feel I was in any danger.  Maybe staying away from the edge while near the top of the falls was an idea that did not occur to others.





Red Dress

Who doesn't like a nice warm June evening?  What photographer doesn't want to take images of an attractive model.  I've had the good fortune to work with Ines Nina several times over the past year.  Each shoot is great fun.  Hope to work with Ines again soon.

The Grand Old Lady

Friends of mine told me that they gave this house this nickname.  It seems quite appropriate.   Besides the House of Parliament, I'm thinking this could be one of the most photographed houses in Ontario.  You could say this house is full of character not characters.







Spring Migration

These were taken back in early May at Rondeau Provincial Park and Point Pelee National Park.  As we all  know, the weather this spring/summer has been anything but typical.  In May, it was cool and very few birds had flown north when these shots were taken.  Limited number of varieties seen but those that were here put on a pretty good show.
