Wallpaper 'World View' competition second place winner
First runner-up: Bruce Novak
‘Man in front of Sky’
‘Although a relatively straightforward photograph, Bruce Novak’s shot immediately stood out as an interesting study of a young man. The uncertainty of the setting – a cloudy sky which on closer inspection is an image riveted to a wall, combined with a strong composition and the daydreaming adolescent, create the kind of portrait that could easily appear in Wallpaper*.’
Because he just looks like a Bruce. Moss Landing, just north of Monterey, California.

Now that we are staying even closer to home for our hiking, we have taken on the goal of completing the Sydenham section of the Bruce Trail. Much of it runs right through our city limits or just outside. We have hiked many parts of it over the years. By doing our best to go from end to end and not missing a single section, we have discovered little treasures along the way that are new to us. I love that a lot of the trail is rugged and untamed.
We have a trail book with maps that are out of date in some spots due to some land acquisitions by the Bruce Trail Conservancy. That means parts of the trail that were along a road are now in the woods or fields. But we also use the phone app which is more accurate and it also warns of temporary closures which have happened due to COVID. Tons of people have come up from the bigger cities to walk these trails and they have often overwhelmed parking lots or left too much garbage! We also had to be careful of hunting season. However, on this day all was perfect, including the weather.
When the maps or apps don't work, we have the white blazes to show us the way. It can be like a scavenger hunt at times to find the next blaze. But that is half the fun. You never know what is around the next bend! BTW, we have officially hiked half of the 120 km!

This is one of my favourite sections of the Bruce Trail that we are responsible for as Trail Captains. It is the view you get just as you crawl out of the crevice. I love the character of the those trees ahead. This whole section of trail is varied and moderately difficult to hike with a lot of rugged ups and downs. It has a small waterfall in the spring and two crevices to walk through. Our job is to inspect the trail seasonally for fallen trees on the trail. If we can remove them on our own, we will. If the tree is too big, we let the work crew know so they can bring in heavier equipment. In the past two years, we have repainted the trails blazes and replaced a few signs. We check for overhanging branches that might interfere with a hiker who is carrying a backpack but we cannot take too much of the canopy out. If the vegetation along the trail starts to cover the path, we will cut away some of it. Again, the trail needs to be free of hazards and cleared enough to be passable without making it too wide or upsetting the natural balance of nature. We are so happy to write in all our reports so far that we never see any garbage. Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
This bronze statue of Robert the Bruce by Alan Beattie Herriot stands outside Marischal College, on Aberdeen’s Broad Street. King Robert I (1274 – 1329), was King of Scots from 1306 until his death. He fought successfully during his reign to restore Scotland to an independent kingdom. Robert the Bruce had a strong connection with Aberdeen, giving six different charters to the city over his lifetime.
