In geological, cosmic time, we are insignificant, motes of dust floating in a sunbeam. To ourselves, our families, friends, people who care, we are like the moon, impossible to miss in a clear sky.
Light the way.

One of Stella’s favourite positions and places, curled up on the couch. She is a very good companion and very good dog.

Softly
A winters’ morning light softly illuminates the landscape.
Early Morning: Shed and Clouds
The early morning light rarely fails to grab me, pull me onto the shoulder to take a photo or three.

Faye’s photos – wildlife
In this last photo from our trip, Faye captured this handsome deer just off the road.
Faye’s photos – Shared space and time
As we left Pelee National Park, I looked up and spied a Bald Eagle riding the stiff west wind. It slanted across the wind, travelling north, the same direction as we. The eagle rode the wind just above tree level, sometimes below treetop height and having to weave through the limbs to clear air. As I drove Faye got the camera. If I stopped we fell far behind so I continued driving as Faye looked for an opportunity. This is a pretty good shot given the conditions.
We shared space for about five kilometers and time for about ten minutes, before finally parting ways in Leamington near the ferry dock. It was a truly remarkable, unique experience.
Faye’s photos – Ramparts
Ramparts of ice futilely attempt to withstand winters’ latest assault.
Stalagmites?
At Point Pelee, a fierce west wind blew spray from Lake Erie onto these plants. Faye met them at their level.
