Sharon Creek

A few shots from a recent early morning trip to Sharon Creek Conservation Area.

Dorchester Mill Pond

What a great morning for a walk.  Caught the sunrise.  Frost on the leaves.  Ice on the pond.  Geese.  Ducks.  Flying.

I missed most of our fall colours this year.  This was my chance to capture what was left.  The golden morning light made it easy.

I've tried something different today.  There's one image that I've posted a monochrome edit.  Let me know what you think of it.

Autumn Sunflowers

I guess the sunflowers felt the lack of summer more than I did.  The flowers, now dying, weren't two feet tall.  Their flowers were barely 4-6 inches.  Even in this depressed state, what is it about sunflowers that make you smile?

October at Springwater C.A.

Taking Flight

These Canada geese took off from the pond with coloured leaves on the trees behind them.  The slow shutter speed delivered some unusual results.


Wet Carpet

The forest floor in autumn is full of intrigue, for me at least.

Archie Coulter Conservation Area

I was feeling a little cheated.  On Friday I received a new camera.  I gave it a quick test that evening.  Saturday I was trapped inside at a meeting but glad of it as it was pouring outside.  So when Don sent me a message asking if I wanted to go to Archie's on Sunday afternoon I was so happy to go.  These are my first shots with a NEX 6.

Tillsonburg PhotoWalk

Last weekend the forecast was for heavy rain over Friday night and 70% probability of precipitation for Saturday morning.  Saturday afternoon and most of Sunday were forecast to rain as well.  So much for a weekend camping trip.  So, I had the chance to participate in the Kelby World PhotoWalk of Tillsonburg.  Here are a few of my favourites from the morning.

The "walk" lasted until noon.  On the way home, I stopped at a barn that I've eyed for years.  It provided some great views.

 A great cloudy day that never did rain.
