This image of an elk was captured by Juergen Trotz. He had set out to get a shot of the sunset but the clouds had other ideas. Luckily, he saw this while he was out, and although the elk is but a small portion of the frame, the vastness of the scene reminds us that there is a lot of open space in the world, even when we think we’re getting too crowded.
Back in 2020, Marsha Courtney captured this image of raindrops on some barren twigs. Taken two days after Christmas, it appears we had an easy winter that year. Marsha calls this on, “Angel Tears”.
Club member, Cindie Fearnall, has a pet portrait business and creates beautiful photos of those cute family members who give us so much joy. This Maine Coon cat gives this look when he wants another treat. You can see more of Cindie’s Pet portraiture on her website listed on the Gallery page.
This Great Egret was captured by Michelle Ruth during a morning when the sun had backlit this majestic bird. Since Michelle purchased a 100-500 mm lens to accompany her new Canon R5 Mk2, she says it hasn’t come off, and it’s a good thing or she may have missed out on this beautiful moment.
Zachary MacLean’s drone shot is this week’s featured image. Since Zachary is by the harbour with his work, he gets a first hand look at any new vessels that come into our vicinity. This one he calls Tug and Barge.
Maureen Elliott’s image of a man walking his dog is this week’s feature. The thick fog gives this image a sense of mystery and allows the viewer to create their own story about what lies beyond the field of view.
This week’s Flickr Feature is an Autumn scene by Greg McMillan taken from inside his vehicle during a torrential downpour. In his post on Flickr, he asks, “Who misses Autumn?” It would be wonderful if we could experience this colourful season year round.
Janet Hatten created this very colourful abstract back in 2019. Could you have guessed she did it with plastic spoons? Abstract art, especially in the photography space, is a great way to explore your creativity and try things you wouldn’t normally do.
This week’s feature image is by Carol Harris. The sun rays were captured back in 2018 in Pukaskwa National Park, which is located on the north shore of Lake Superior. Carols says the park has “some of the most beautiful evening skies I have ever seen.”
Our longest standing member, Bob tucker, took this shot of a pattern in some wood back in 2009. He captured the light, shadows and the texture of the wood quite nicely. Great shot, Bob!
