I enjoy the challenge of framing a subject that has balance in both colour & design. It’s gets easier with any zoom lens – eliminate & isolate. My tripod has been my best friend this fall, with most days over cast this simple & versatile piece of equipment has helped in taking sharp images

There were eight portages in all this trip - nothing to crazy - but I managed to only portage 3 times while running the rapids of the other 5 - very fun trip & I am looking forward to my next one!

I took a canoe trip in Algonquin Park with my dog Tasha - she make a terrific canoe partner. It was the peak of the fall colours - it was exactly what i needed - wish I could have spent more time there...
