Ripples
In the early light of dawn the rock shore is so calm. The only movement, concentric circles around the young rocks who poked their heads from their beds too early this day. And were called back for more rest.

Donde crecen los nenúfares
A veces se pueden ver atisbos maravillosos de humedales. Una salpicadura rápida y lo que había se ha ido. De vuelta a la seguridad de las aguas oscurecidas. Es hermoso en lo que parece una existencia solitaria, pero lleno de vida bajo su manto de fauna.

En fila para recoger.
Temprano en la mañana de otoño, en dirección sur hacia Ayton, la niebla se estaba disipando y el cielo estaba caprichoso. Parecía cambiar de color mientras conducía. Finalmente una concesión más o menos antes de la ciudad tuve que parar y conseguir alguna foto de referencia.

los pirulís
El iris blanco de Siberia, tan majestuoso en su número. Si simplemente floreceran todos al mismo tiempo, no holgazaneando en varias etapas, desde el capullo hasta la plena floración y marchitándose más allá de su brillo total. Demostrando una vez más que todas las etapas de la vida son hermosas.

Un vistazo a la autopista. 9
Entre Tiviotdale y Orangeville Highway 9 hay un largo tramo de carretera donde los campos están detrás de la línea de árboles. Es bonito, despertarse con un toque de niebla y el sol saliendo. Cielo matutino con paleta otoñal para la flora. Un vistazo a la vista mientras aceleras marcando los kilómetros. .

Mi árbol Sagle
Al conducir por la carretera cerca de The Slash en Manitoulin Island, hay un árbol que todos los miembros de la familia Sagle reconocen. Este es el árbol que estaba al final del camino en casa de la abuela y el abuelo. Todos los miembros de mi familia que puedan rastrear su linaje hasta John y Margaret, a quienes les guste esta pintura, participarán en un sorteo a fines de mayo de 2023. Hay un corazón en la foto, solo tóquelo. El ganador se lo lleva a casa cuando subimos en junio.
Una visita con María.
Así que esto es un poco, bueno, extraño. Heather y yo solíamos caminar mucho por el camino de Mary Rutherford. Y a veces tomaba mi cámara. Hace un tiempo estaba mirando varias fotos y me encontré con esta foto que había tomado. Para aquellos que no son del área, permítanme informarles un poco sobre Mary Rutherford. Ella era residente de nuestra área a mediados del siglo XIX. Pero en este camino secundario, sin mantenimiento (lo que lo hace genial para caminar), hay un pequeño cementerio desaliñado. Hay unas 7 u 8 lápidas al pie de la colina al lado del camino, pero la de Mary está más arriba en la colina, lejos de las demás. Y en el bosque. Hay varios cuentos sobre ella. Uno, iba a casarse, el pretendiente no se presentó a la boda y ella estaba angustiada y se ahorcó. Pero de la otra se dice que era bruja, por lo que su cabeza estaba enterrada en un lugar y el resto de su cuerpo en otro.
Francamente, siempre pensé que era una persona normal, con una vida normal, pero es un poco espeluznante y cuando encontramos las lápidas, uno de nosotros no se sintió cómodo subiendo al bosque. No puedo recordar si fue Heather o yo, probablemente yo, lol.
Volviendo a mi historia: estoy mirando fotos para pintar y me encuentro con esta y se ve así. Pero cuando lo observé más de cerca, pensando en los ángulos y la composición, había algo en el camino. Así que lo hice explotar: en la cima de la colina en la distancia hay una mujer. Pero desapareció antes de que pudiéramos acercarnos más.
Aquí está "Una visita con María"

Carril de Brandys en invierno
Brandy's Lane in Winter captura un día fresco y soleado en febrero. Sin viento, solo el canto de los pájaros. Viajamos por el camino entre las hileras de árboles a través de las largas sombras azules que proyecta el sol del atardecer.

Juan de cobre
Cuando era joven vivíamos en el municipio de Brant en una granja de pasatiempos. Tenía un cuarto de milla llamado Lucky, y Lucky engendró a Copper John. Llamado así por mi abuelo, quien fue el primero en darse cuenta de que había nacido. El cobre tenía una energía ilimitada, un torbellino. Ese potro podía correr de un campo a otro a una velocidad increíble.
