Photo of the Week 2025-10-20

 

With any luck, today I should be on my way home with a 'bucket load' of images from a return Algoma Getaway with some photographer friends. Last time was 2023 when we attended a guided photography workshop. This time, with knowledge from the last trip and the collective mind of our group we planned our own. Images from this recent trip will surely follow, but since I'm up and on the road, here's a previously unpublished image from last time ...

Photo of the Week 2023-12-11

 

Not long after last week's post, I completed my processing of a set of images that now comprise the series ' revealed '. The series features the magnificent Superior lake-bed colours and shapes at Coldwater Cove, as seen with the use of a polarizing filter to reduce glare and reflection on the water surface.

 

With these two images, getting close with wide angle zoom allowed me to create interesting abstract interpretations using the natural patterns, shapes and colours in the rock of the Canadian Shield. I was left to imagine rough water and waves crashing along this shoreline because on this day there were but ripples on the water's surface.

Calm, sunny conditions such as we had are something not too common for late October on the lake that is Superior.
