01792 Mille Iles River, Bois-des-Filion 1969
I remember this moment. It was late winter/early spring, and I was walking by the river with my new camera, a Pentax Spotmatic. I had a 200mm lens for it, my first real telephoto. The light that day was ethereal - soft and saturated with moisture. It was very mild and the last ice was breaking up on the river. Not knowing any better, I believe I made exactly one photo... today I would shoot a hundred, two hundred, push myself toward... something. We all have to learn. These were baby steps.
Scanned from the original Kodachrome 64 slide, March 1969.
