Fall
Lime Kiln Trail, after the Fire of 2012
Who would have thought it was possible for a bog to have caught on fire ...? The base of the bog is on a lime stone base, so the bog base is not very deep, yet a fire ripped through this area of the greenbelt south of Ottawa in 2012. This is a very large panoramic image, capable of being printed at native 300ppi resolution of over 8' wide and 4' tall.

Jack Pine Trail Fall Colors
Taken shortly after sunrise on the Jack Pine trail. Even with COVID-19 in the red zone, lots of families trying to find ways to keep busy and healthy out walking along on the trails through the Greenbelt in Ottawa. This is a wonderful spot, with a lot of Chickadees that are eager to eat bird seed from peoples hands.

Fall Morning Sun Burst In The Forest
I love that sunrise is getting later and later in the mornings now that fall is here. I don't have to get up at some ungodly hour to get out and enjoy a beautiful sunrise. This very large panoramic I captured in a planted forest very near to my home. I've driven by it so many times, I'm glad I finally went to check it out this morning. Caught the sun getting diffused just nicely between the trees, alowing me to capture the sun in it's full intensity with a nice sunburst.

Dunlop Picnic Area Falls - Slippery? Check!
It was such a wonderfully warm day today. Thunderstorm warnings all day, but we were lucky and it stayed north of Ottawa and Parc de la Gatineau. The sun had set and I was on my way back down when I deciced I would stop in and check out the falls. Ok, not much water flowing these days, The colors are amazing, I think I will go back here again for sunrise tomorrow. I slipped on the damp rocks trying to get this shot, still managed to get the shot, but gonna have a nice bruise on my arm from this one ... lol.

Dunlop Picnic area low flow falls
fall colors are peaking, not much water flowing, haven't had a lot of rain the past few days, but that has helped to ensure the leaves stay on the trees, so all good!

Peaceful Fall Sunrise in Mer Bleue Bog Boardwalk Trail
Early fall, colors are just starting to transition. COVID rules are in place, one way traffic flow through the trails to limit exposure for all visitors to the conservation area.

Ottawa Greenbelt Walkway During a Fall Sunrise
Early morning walk through the trails on a warm fall morning. The sun was at my back as I set up to capture this scene. Every now and then a leaf would fall from the branches and land in the pathware in front of me. It was a very peaceful morning, with Bluejays singing in the forest.

Foggy Fall Boardwalk - Mer Bleue
Another outstanding morning in the dead of fall at Mer Bleue Conservation Area. There wasn't a whisper of a wind on this morning, so the fog was sitting still down in the valley over the bog. Because of the composition of the bog, it's almost always foggy in the morning in the fall. Great for me to be able to capture! It's also an interesting scene due to the strong orange-red colour in the foliage on the bog. It won't be long now before the snow starts flying.

Busy Beavers on a Foggy Fall Morning
There is nothing quite like a beautiful crisp fall morning at Mer Bleue with a low hanging layer of fog over the bog. This scene is made that much more special because of the three beavers that were busy building their den for the winter.

Fall Rhapsody - Mer Bleue Conservation
Taken at sunrise on a foggy fall morning, this section fo the Mer Bleeu trail, is a wonderful spot to stop and let the little chickadee's sit and eat feed from the palm of your hand. This scene has been composed from 180 individual photos to create a supersized "4K' type quality print. At 4k like resolution, this will print at 100" wide and 38.5" tall.
