What better way to finish off my amazing birthday weekend than with a stunner of a Vermont sunset? What made this photo even better was the canoe someone left behind on the beach. The moment I saw it, I knew it had to be part of my composition.
In other news, I'm incredibly excited for this upcoming long weekend. It's a new moon, which means this will be the best (and also probably last) weekend to see the juiciest part of the Milky Way in the northern Hemisphere (before it goes into hiding in the southern hemisphere until next spring). Weather looks clear, so I know what I will be doing this weekend. :)
Chicago River facing east. Great weather brought out the masses. Canoes and smaller craft tend to cling to the sides to allow for the larger tour boats.
As you can probably tell, I'm kind of on a pinhole kick :) A canoe, gliding through the trees on the Rock River, captured with a Pinwide 11mm pinhole lens mounted on my Sony A7S II with a Fotodiox MFT to E-mount lens adapter.
An outrigger canoe team paddles across the deep blue Pacific off Maui, framed by an out-of-focus palm frond.
On Hoople Bay plus St. Lawrence River at 7:00PM. The sunset fully dropping at 7:15PM. Lots of clouds such that the sun won’t be viewed at the bottom sunset 7:15PM. Mild wind creating reflections ripples on the water that reflects the colour on the top of the river.
Below, the actual sunset at 7:30, not viewed due to clouds on the bottom but some cloud opening above as viewed…..
Doing a second, but mini-upload from the Calgary and Banff trip this weekend.
Moraine Lake has a canoe-rental service. We were on a coach tour so didn't have the time to try it, plus neither mother nor I can swim.
Location: Mauthe Lake Recreation Area in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.
We saw this canoe while finishing our walk around the lake. Looked like a great photo op.
A river excursion winds its way between Mexico (upper left) and the United States (lower right). My vantage point was the outlook above the Rio Grand Village Nature Trail in Big Bend National Park in west Texas.
Went for a drive to Quetico Provincial Park yesterday, I have never been there before. There is a lot of snow and ice so not able to tackle most trails here. I did get in one hike and a walk on the beach. I found this canoe close to the beach, I am sure it is on display to demonstrate the canoes used to portage in this area.
This is a beautiful park and I will be back to do some trails later in the year. I love discovering new parks.

These children had fun playing with their toy canoe.
Taken just off Kitava Island, where crystal blue waters wash the white sandy beaches.
May the image of these children remind us all that the world we are creating is also for the younger generation.
May they continue to enjoy each day.
My trip out in the wilderness of the Manchac Swamps. It's my favorite time of the year (Summer), lots of peace and tranquility in the swamps.

The twisting and winding road to Hana, Maui, (Hawaii) is bordered by the most beautiful, lushly planted shores and pristine sandy beaches in the state. Here, an outrigger canoe takes a break from the late-afternoon surf.
Here are a couple more from my morning down in the swamp. Caddo Lake, Texas...
Normally I hate having people in my landscape photos, but I really liked the sense of scale this family in the canoe adds.
When canoeing down in the bayou, it is really a good idea to go as a family. There are a lot of alligators out there so going alone can be dangerous. If you have your family along and encounter an alligator, you can just throw them one of the kids This usually satisfies them, thus preventing an attack.
