Another sign and glimpse into another psyche. Bill's chair was frozen hard to the ground but I thought it would make an interesting challenge to shoot (...)

Meanwhile, back on the Jack Pine Trail, a first sunray was illuminating the snow field in a fascinating manner.

I don't know if this works for anyone but I was drawn to this Moonset even though the light was dim and my zoom lens quite inadequate to the task.

This old wagon on Cedarview Drive has always intrigued me. I had to walk on hard snow 4 feet deep to get to it, expecting to fall through at every mom (...)

From Jack Pine to Corkstown Rd. - I liked the way this leaf was melting its way through the snow.

I really liked the play of light on this piece of Birch bark emerging from the snow.

I was intent on my macro-photography so I didn't notice at first that I was being intently watched in turn. She was curious and close so my 3X zoom wa (...)

The Corkstown trail follows the Nepean escarpment and brushes against the CN rail line that passes through Bells Corners. I usually cross over and tak (...)

I was continuing my macro shots when I noticed an increase in the number of deer hairs on the rail bed. Deer regularly cross the tracks so finding hai (...)

Needless to say, it was a singular finding. Yet, somehow, the clues seemed to be pointing further on down the tracks.

More colour was provide by this signal switch courtesy of the sun and a reflective design.

I pondered the mystery. What deer would be dumb enough to get caught by a freight train? I saw movement ahead and, from around the bend, came trotting (...)

Sure enough, a big old freight train was comin' down the line. The deer took off with the train in hot pursuit. I followed as best I could, camera at (...)

When the train had passed I followed with trepidation. A 100 meters away I came across this sad tableau. I approached the tragic scene but soon realiz (...)

From the gruesome to the sublime. This shot spoke volumes to me. It was taken within meters of the Queensway where heavy traffic was heading, in futil (...)

Another day, another dawn. I don't know which shot I prefer - this one or the next one.
