Photograph of trees coated in ice after a storm. The scene is overlooked by dark cloudy skies with one portal of blue.

Aftermath. I do love our annual northern ice storms.

Photo of a House Wren sitting on a branch. Its back is to the camera but it is looking back at the photographer.

These wee House Wrens truly are the chihuahuas of the bird world. (Nothing like a stormy winter's day to work on the thousands of leftover summer images. 🤣)

Image of Maximilian sunflowers. The flowers are brightly lit by sun and superimposed on a dark moody background.

Remember the feeling of the sun on your face? I love the way photography allows us to immortalize these wee moments in time.

Image of a fritillary butterfly (and an out of focus bumble bee in the background) on a cluster of New England Asters.

It feels like summer was several years ago...

Winter image of a fast flowing stream cascading over rocks and surrounded by snow and ice.

I tend to not go with black and white for many of my images... but sometimes Ma Nature insists. #Nikon #Nature #Winter #Water #Art #Manitoulin #Landscapes

Slow shutter speed photograph of waves rolling in to shore and smashing on rocks. It is cold enough that the water splashes are freezing on the background rocks.

Photograph taken while standing in a shallow river. In the foreground water is rushing around snow and ice covered boulders. In the background is Manitoulin Island's semi-frozen iconic Bridal Veil waterfalls.

So I might have got a bit of a soaker taking this shot.🥶🤣

Photograph of Bridal Veil Falls located on Manitoulin Island, Ontario, Canada. A slightly long shutter speed allowed for a creamy feel to the falling water, and a bright red maple leaf features prominently on a rock in the foreground.

Bridal Veil Falls, Manitoulin Island. Can't remember the last time I saw such a low water flow during the autumn "rainy season".

Photograph of rocks on a sandy beach. The sand is undisturbed by human footprints. Waves are rolling in and sombre skies, with just a slice of colourful sunset, are overseeing the image.

Image of an earth star mushroom in a very dark moody forest-floor setting.

Found a little patch of earth stars (Geastrum sp.) today. Time in the forest never fails to yield something special...

Image of a sunset. It is very dark and moody with a lone birch tree standing out against the orange textured sky.

Some scenes are really challenging to capture. Sunsets, just at the moment of near darkness, fall into that category. 😂

Photograph of a Common Yellowthroat sitting in a patch of perennial sow thistle flowers. The colour of the flowers beautifully compliments the yellow throat of the wee warbler.

I miss those long-ago warm days of autumn.😆

Coming soon, to a neighbourhood near you. Winter. Who knew cold could come in so many textures?
