Photo of the Week 2020-10-26

 

There are certain subjects or scenes that repeatedly catch my eye, some I have photographed multiple times, some successfully, others not. 

 

This tree at Wilson Flats has been catching my eye since I first visited quite a few years ago. I've never been able to capture it in a way that I like ... until it stood in it's brilliant fall colour, under the sun on a day of broken clouds ...

An image was selected and queued up for the P.O.T.W. ... then the weather cooperated on a Saturday hike with cousin Steve who had come to spend some time with us up at the cottage. We had selected a trail that would show him the Georgian Bay shoreline from an escarpment lookout and from water level. Halfway Log Dump was the perfect spot to offer both views, and the weather cooperated for just long enough for us to get the hike in ...

It was great that Steve got up to our place for a visit, and that the weather was decent for our hike. It took a while but now he's seen autumn on the Bruce ... we want to show him winter.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING !

 

Well it's already Thanksgiving, with the fall colours that began to arrive in late September now on full display. I've been finishing renovations at the cottage, catching up with social media posts from my backlog of images during the downtime up there. There wasn't much from autumn to post until now ...

Not entirely without some photography time before September was gone, I did manage to get out for a drive on the local backroads around Puslinch one morning to capture my first images of fall 2020. A few more can be seen in my recent social media posts ( Facebook , Flickr , Instagram ).

There are times when there is nothing recent that I'm moved to process and post. During such times I look to the catalogue and the collection of images I have accumulated for something to share. I have some candidates flagged for processing, some have already been processed and some flagged and ready for posting.

There are also times like the past couple of weeks, where I've captured a number of images I'm eager to review, process and share, and ... there is a bit of a backlog. I've been here before. I'm able to post new content frequently to my social media accounts. The number may dwindle over the coming days as the emotion attached to seeing, responding, capturing fades and the internal editor asserts himself. We'll see which make the cut and what hits the cutting room floor ...

 

At the moment, there are several sunset images in the queue, all from Hay Bay, Tobermory. So for this week, I'll share back to back sunsets from Sept 20 & 21 as summer 2020 slipped into history ...

I'm contemplating a sunset calendar project ... thoughts?
