Sunset(s)
When a sunset alone is not enough, we can enjoy it in multiples – reflections in the windows of the Otter!

Paddle
We’ve been enjoying a gloriously warm fall (until yesterday). Last week, two good friends joined me for a paddle to the south end of Agimak Lake. What a treat!

Bridal Veil Falls
Surprise appearance
It’s very rare that I take only one shot of a scene. With digital capture, we have the ability to shoot an enormous number of images for, basically, free. Since the review screen on my old Canon Rebel is so small, I generally purge images during import to my computer then again in post processing.
A quick glance in camera at this first shot, I knew I wasn’t happy with the depth of field or how the top of the mountain ash was lined up with background tree line. So I recomposed and shot again (latter image). It wasn’t until I uploaded the images to my computer that I could see a dragonfly snuck into the first shot!
Turkey (aka Moose) time
In these parts, Canadian Thanksgiving week end signals the start of the gun moose hunt (residents on Saturday morning; non-residents on Monday at dawn). In advance of the event, we’ve been out in the woods calm early mornings and late evenings to call out and, hopefully, photograph (and warn) the big bull moose. Although we’ve heard them move through the trees and ponds inside the tree lines in response to Brad’s moose call, they were too shy to appear. We also found in the bush road, their very near passing. These tracks were so fresh, Brad suggested, “If they were any fresher, he’d still be in them!”
