Doesn’t it look like the water comes right out of the rock cliff? Below is the context of this beautiful falls in the Agawa Canyon. Imagine the spring run off here!

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!”
Shades of maple
Although Maples are somewhat rare in our neighbourhood, the odd splattering of them delights!
Just a little fall colour
Wish this was in my backyard! We found these beautiful maples along Lake Superior’s north shore at one of our many stops enroute from Sault Ste Marie.

Southern Ontario may have incredible vistas of fall splendour, but there’s no place like home on Agimak Lake in Ignace. (Actually, this is my neighbour’s dock – thanks, Judy!) Specific screen resolution images can be found here.
