“Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done.” ― Louis D. Brandeis I find myself drawn to anomalies, things that are out of place. This boulder amid the tumult of Bancroft’s Egan Chute is no exception. I have a feeling I have photographed it before, in slightly different conditions, but haven’t checked back to older photos. I’m certain the light on that occasion was… Read More
“I liked watching more than I liked being part of it and for the first time I realized that it was OK to just be an observer. Some of us were actors and some of us were the audience. Both were important roles.” ― Peter Monn This photograph caused me a lot of conflict. As a photographer, ‘selfies’ really irk me. I’ve stood overlooking beautiful vistas only to be roughly shoved by crowds… Read More
“A large drop of sun lingered on the horizon and then dripped over and was gone, and the sky was brilliant over the spot where it had gone, and a torn cloud, like a bloody rag, hung over the spot of its going. And dusk crept over the sky from the eastern horizon, and darkness crept over the land from the east.” ― John Steinbeck Today’s post will be simple and short, accompanied… Read More
“There’s a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they’re absolutely free. Don’t miss so many of them.” ― Jo Walton I never get tired of sunsets, though I have to admit, I often miss sunrises. This sunset, simply titled “Sauble Sunset 2018” is one of many photos of the sunset that evening, mere days ago, and is now one of many in an annual series. Sauble Beach has been as summer… Read More
“The summer waters caressed the shore, like a lover, gently stroking the beach, in sheets of warm silk” – Ed Lehming I fell in love with this image almost as soon as I made it. It captured the feeling of that hot August dusk along the shores of Lake Huron. What had been quite a windy day throughout most of the daytime hours, turned soft and gentle, as the sun began to… Read More
“One day, all your worries will set like the sun does and deserved happiness will come gushing like waves at the beach do. All you need to make sure is that your trips to beach never end.” ― Jasleen Kaur Gumber Another glorious end of day at Sauble Beach. Even the gentlest dusk breezes move the water into waves that endlessly lap at the shore. Some, a bit more aggressively than others. I… Read More
“I love to feel the temperature drop and the wind increase just before a thunderstorm. Then I climb in bed with the thunder.” ― Amanda Mosher I wanted to revisit this storm cloud. This image was made mere seconds after my previously posted photo. Seconds make all the difference in the nature of these clouds. The form changes and the light shiftsdramatically. The other thing that changes rapidly, as noted in the quote… Read More
“Every season has an end~for a harvest to begin. Embrace the process!” ― Dina Rolle The ripe wheat stretched to the horizon, bathed in late day sunshine. It was a still and hot day in late July when I made this image with my iPhone, not having my Nikon with me. It was quite a sight and I wanted to do it justice in portraying how vast this looked. Not Prairie vast, but… Read More
