Photo of the Week 2018-03-19

Sometimes the urge to post the most recent images can be hard to resist ... very hard. An sometimes there is a little help in resisting that urge. This week that happens to be the case, with '"help" coming from two sources. 

With over a thousand frames from an early morning outing to capture the Tundra Swan migration to sort through and cull, there was not enough time left in the day (or night) to get through them all ... and I didn't want to grab one for the photo of the week without going through the full process.

So what we have for this week is inspired by some recent reading on wolves and coyotes. Those readings spoke to the nature of ecosystems, the role that wolves and coyotes play, and their unfair persecution. I went rogue in my processing as I looked for a way to convey the sense of fragility that I was left with ...

The result of a repeat photo outing at a local church and processing with creative filters ...

Returning to a familiar location ... shoot the details.
Been there, done that ... experiment with processing.

Results ... success !

A recent client inquiry had me looking back through the image catalogue, an experience that I always enjoy, and one, as I've written before, that stirs memories and often results in (re)discovering some hidden gems. This time the quest took me to shots from the La Cloche area I had visited on a business trip to Manitoulin back in 2010.

La Cloche Reflections

It had likely been 40 years since my last visit to Manitoulin, then as a young hockey player travelling for a tournament. In 2010 the focus was on work with some personal time set aside to explore and photograph in the area of Willisville.

The few years of involvement with sites in Northern Ontario exposed me to the beautiful scenery that so many had already known, written about, painted and yes, photographed. Few opportunities to return have presented since ... and now as retirement approaches, I'm already thinking about how soon I can hit the road with a full complement of photo gear and time ...
