I stopped at a favourite spot to take a few photos, snapping away until the bitter cold bit my fingertips. I could return to my warm car. What I saw and what you see sleeps outdoors, awaiting spring.

At Point Pelee, a fierce west wind blew spray from Lake Erie onto these plants. Faye met them at their level.

Faye’s photos – Light and Dark

Faye was quite busy with the camera during our visit to far southwest Ontario, she has quite a good eye. During the next few days I will share several of her compositions.

Looking into the late afternoon sun at Point Pelee, light and dark dominate. Beauty is stark, austere.
