'Prodigal Son'

- Rosa's Garden of Earthly Delights, Keefer Lake, Ontario, Canada -

 

We are back after a wonderful visit in Portugal. Athough rain was predicted for the majority of our stay it thankfully proved wrong and warmth and bright sun was the order of almost all of our days on our trip.

 

Keefer Lake saved a thin sheet of ice for our return and then all of it disappeared over the course of a few hours on our first day back - the lake is ice free and no doubt the Loons will be calling within a day or so.

 

And now begins a labour of love as I sift and sort through over 2000 photographs taken during the trip. As Ansel Adams once noted, if you make 10 good photographs a year ... it's a good year. I shall be quite happy to have four or five.

 

The above is an image taken last year in 'Rosa's Garden of Earthly Delights' as I call it ... she is working on the beginnings of new gardens as I write this and has an infectious smile a mile (1.6 kilometres) wide on her beautiful face.
