Falling leaves and waterfalls….
Here’s Raleigh Falls from the opposite side. With water levels so low, it was easy to step across and shoot a less seen angle. Which side do you like better?
For our de Havilland float plane fans, I have the Otter at the dock at sunset.
The proportionately large tail is exaggerated from this angle.

turning point
it only takes one cold, wet day in August to remind us that summer’s end is near.
feather clouds
These delicate strokes of high altitude ice crystals are part of the cirrus family of clouds also known as mare’s tails. Here’s a cool resource for all things cloud.
Not only were we treated to these clouds at sunset, but the lake was calm!
Calm is a rare treat here at the water’s edge.
Calm is my camera’s friend.
(So is Photoshop – not so nice blue barrel in lower left corner…didn’t notice that when I was shooting…will have to move that next time.)
Very basic but important photo tip: Look for distractions in the entire frame and adjust the angle or zoom accordingly or, if possible, remove the unwanted item(s). It may be easier to do at the time of the shot than in post=processing.
Here’s the view from my neighbour’s beach.
(un)real colour
Some nights the setting sun turns the sky the most amazing shades of pink.
Rarely, do we get this vibrant a violet.
No filters were used on nor post processing done to this image.

One of the best things about lakeside living is the abundance of sky!

Since I’ve had numerous requests for aircraft calendars, I’ve prepared an alternate calendar which is posted on Ignace Airways Facebook page.
