Sky reflected in water. The resulting patterns never fail to amaze me.

white lace
In the fall of 2015, I took a picture of this tree in all its golden glory. Here it is in the spring, blooming its heart out at the side of the road.
In summer and winter, this little tree almost disappears into the background foliage, but for two seasons of the year, it really shines.
(This photo is the result of an in-camera multiple exposure combining a straight and a blurred image.)
stuck in the middle
all washed up
As I walked along the beach, this beautiful bit of seaweed washed up at my feet. The shape, colour, and texture reminded me of some of the vintage costume jewelry I used to collect.

Shots from a recent heavy snow shower…hopefully winter is done now!
lakeside (3 images)
I happened to drive by the lake late Sunday afternoon, and stopped to take a few shots in the waning light.
The bulrushes are pretty ragged at this time of year.
Ripples warp and blur reflections of overhanging branches.
sand and surf
Coffee and cream? Both classic combinations.
I always enjoy trying to capture the movement of the water at the beach. The photography part often takes a back seat to just being there, experiencing the soothing rhythm of the sea.
three firs
These three fir trees grow at the side of the path to the beach, and I’ve passed them many times without taking particular notice. But on this day the soft winter sun seemed to shine on them just right, highlighting the detail in the trunks while drawing out the pastel tones of the woodland foliage.
white boat
The boat made no pretensions to beauty; it was remarkable only in the stark whiteness of its utilitarian fibreglass hull. But I liked the way it looked, set atop an ancient driftwood log, with a background of frosted foliage that preserved the minimalist colour palette.
stranded
This little yellow kelp bulb (a kind of seaweed) was left on the beach after a recent high tide.
