Summer Weekend at the cottage

As I write this, the summer is already nearing its end. The temperature has started to dip down and soon enough the leaves are going to start to change all sorts of colours. A new season will start, repainting our neighbourhood. We’re ready to tackle the colder weather and the beautiful autumn cityscapes. In the meantime, here are a few pictures I took while at the cottage during the summer. It’s not a large collection, but that’s all I have from this summer. Enjoy, share, comment!

Alors que j’écris ces mots, l’été tire déjà à sa fin. La température a commencé à descendre et bientôt les feuilles vont commencés à changer de couleurs. Une nouvelle saison va commencer, en peinturant notre quartier de toutes sortes de belles couleures! Nous sommes prêt à s’attaquer aux températures plus froides et aux beaux paysages de l’automne. En attendant, voici quelques photos que j’ai prises au chalet cet été. C’est une collection assez petite, mais c’est tout ce que j’ai pour l’instant. À bientôt!

Photo Monday: Flora and Fauna of the Dump

We went to a bouldering crag called the “Halfway Log Dump” this weekend. It’s an incredible lake-side area of the Bruce Peninsula (Georgian Bay, Lake Huron) that has recently been re-opened — thanks to the hard-working folks of the OAC. Here is a collection of the friends we made there over the past couple of days. (Actual shots of the climbing and scenery are coming this week!) Enjoy.

Nous sommes allés grimper à un spot qu’y s’apelle “Halfway Log Dump” ce weekend. C’est un site de grimpe sur le bord du grand Lac Huron, dans la baie Georgienne sur la “Bruce Peninsula”. Le site vient tout juste de ré-ouvrir grâce aux nombreux efforts de l’OAC. Voici une collection des petits amis que nous avons rencontrer lors de notre fin de semaine. Les photos de l’endroit en tant que tel s’en viennent bientôt.

Autumn Monday

So, for this week’s collection of photos, I thought I would pay homage to the most beautiful season of all: autumn. I love the colors autumn brings to our neighborhood. The shot that looks really different was post-processed using HDR techniques. It’s one of the post-processing techniques i really like to play around with. Hopefully, I will get to present more of these shots as time go by. Hope you enjoy this post. Let me know by leaving a comment here! Cheers -

I love those houses near Niagara and Wellington. They make such nice photos!
