Fall color







I thought it would be a good idea to go out in the canoe yesterday morning to take some photographs of the autumn scenery. I didn't expect it to be so windy, with foot high waves, which made it quite a challenge to get where I wanted to go. Once I reached my destination, I found that the canoe kept blowing away from where I wanted to be, so I had to shoot quickly to capture the compositions I wanted. I also found that no matter which direction looked the most scenic, the wind would turn the boat so the bow would appear in the composition. I got some nice images and some good exercise, but next time I think I'll take the kayak.

Traditions




One of our family's Christmas Day traditions is to take a walk together. Some years the weather isn't conducive to doing that, but this past Christmas was a perfect day for a hike in the woods. These are a few images from our walk.
