Algonquin : Maples and Pines . . .

This image is included in a gallery "Photo Gallery" curated by Ryan Miller.

 

About 310 km from Scarborough, Algonquin Provincial Park is located between Georgian Bay and the Ottawa River in Central Ontario, mostly within the Unorganized South Part of Nipissing District. Established in 1893, it is the oldest provincial park in Canada. The park is considered part of the "border" between Northern Ontario and Southern Ontario. The park is in an area of transition between coniferous forest and deciduous forest. This unique mixture of forest types, and the wide variety of environments in the park, allows the park to support an uncommon diversity of plant and animal species.

 

This was taken on an overcast autumn morning, somewhere along the Oxtongue River. The light was soft and breezes were gentle.
