April 2017 – ice out
Typically ice leaves the lake in front of our place some time between late April and early May. We eagerly await this change.

Summer is flying by! Hope that if you haven’t already spent time on or near a body of water, you will soon.
Enjoy.

May 2016
The ice left our lake April 24th which is just a bit early in the range of normal.
It was unspectacular.
Some years, we are treated to delicate ice crystals dancing up on our shore line, some years winds push chunks of ice up as if there was a bulldozer on the other side of the lake. No matter how long it takes or how it looks and sounds in the process, the end result – beautiful blue – is one of my favourite views.
Optical Prism?
While shooting the spectacular morning of previous post, I noticed a bright patch of light to the right side of the island.
At first I thought it was a beam of sunlight breaking through the mist but as the morning brightened and at closer look, a spectrum of colour was clear.
The full range of colour became even clearer as it seemed to stretch and move closer to shore.
Physics was not a strong subject of mine in school and is still a challenge to process. Even searching on line to find what this is or how it is formed made my head hurt. The best (simplest) info I found was this Wikipedia article for ‘prism‘. What I do know is it was a treat to notice and capture it.
