Something to brighten a rainy day!☔️
We went out for a drive on the Country side looking for sunflower field. Visited the one that we always go to but still no blooms. The owner recommended another place not too far from his farm. Because it rained so much the previous day, the ground was so wet and muddy. I had a good time anyway as I love sunflowers.🌻🌻🌻 Very thankful to Tom that he took me around just to see sunflowers.
We got caught in a heavy rain on our way back to Toronto but we were happy to be home safe and sound.

This is the old Train Station in Innisfil. It is really starting to look rough. It is a shame that lovely old building like this cannot be refurbished.
happy Window Wednesday
“Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?” ~ Unknown

This morning's weather: -24oC with -35oC windchill. It sure was cold, but when you have a scene like this in front of your eyes you suddenly forget what temperature it is. These mornings are why I love landscape photography. Sometimes it's a struggle to get out there in the cold, but Winter offers some amazingly unique scenes only the cold weather can provide. www.wdphotography.ca

It was freezing cold and a very windy day, but I still decided to go for some shots. I'm telling you, not as fun as I thought...brrrrrrrrrr
Good thing the sun was shining and the sky was blue to add a special nature's touch to this shot!
=D
I wish you a wonderful week! Thanks for your visit!

Part of the $1.5 billion 'Friday Harbour' development on Lake Simsoe. It will include 2000 housing units, a hotel, restaurants, shops, a golf course and North America's largest inland marina with a 1,000 boat slips.
"The history of Innisfil spans a period in excess of 170 years. The Town was hewn from almost unbroken virgin forests which had been home to the Huron Indians, and was first surveyed in 1820. The area encompassed 68,653 acres (278 km²), including the villages of Allandale, Tollendal, Painswick, Minets Point, and Holly at the time.
The first settlers were the Hewson & Soules families who came by way of the East Holland River and Lake Simcoe to settle at Point Endeavour that they then renamed Hewson's Point (later named Big Bay Point). The Hewsons settled on March 30, 1820 and the Soules in 1822. The Warnica family settled the following year, in 1823, in the area now known as Painswick. The first sawmill in the Township was built at Tollendal by George McMullen in 1829.
John and George Warnica completed the clearing of the bush between Barrie and Churchill and assisted John Clayton to complete his contract between Churchill and Bradford. This opened the land route, known as Penetanguishene Road, which later became Highway 11 and is now Yonge Street. This route between York (now Toronto) and Barrie was completed in the fall of 1825.
Along this road the settlers came, and spread out along the concession lines to clear the lands and develop their farms. There had been those who came ahead by way of the river and the lake; many settled near the shores of Lake Simcoe and Kempenfelt Bay. The only channels of communication were the public roads, and these were scant and poor.
The pioneer farms cut from the forest were mostly self-sustaining. What few products there were for sale found a market in nearby Barrie, which was then little more than a village. Distant York was reached in the winter when the ice and snow made for better roads.
During this period, post offices, churches, and stores were established, also a form of local government performed by commissioners was appointed under a provincial act. The first post office, then called Innisfil, was located at what is now called Barclay's Corners. The first school was built in 1838 and located at Myers Corners, later called Victoria (now the community of Stroud). The first church was also at Victoria, and was of Methodist denomination.
Milling in Innisfil was first done at Tollendal in 1835. The need for a grist mill to grind wheat is an indication of the progress toward an agricultural community."
The old Hamilton & North Western Railway line through Vine, Ontario still sees a train pass by twice per week as the Barrie Collingwood Railway’s GP9 1001 works down the Beeton Sub to industries at Innisfil and back through Barrie to Utopia. The circa 1918 Grand Trunk Railway station at Vine still remains just a few hundred feet down the road from the line it once served. After the last passenger train in 1960, it was relocated in 1962, and once again wears GTR grey and green in its new role as a residence.
CCGX 1001 is returning north from Innisfil with two cars from Comet Chemical, one from Tarpin Lumber, and a fourth car for TAG Environmental at Barrie.

CCGX 1001 shoves into Comet Chemical where they will make a few moves to setoff one car and lift two outbounds. Shortly, they will return to the main to lift the rest of their cars and proceed to the run around just west of highway 400.

The local finally trundles into the yard at Utopia, Ontario, and will take the switch that leads south towards the small interchange yard to hand off the tank cars and hoppers to CP. After dropping those four, the 1001 will leave the empty ballast cars somewhere close to the crew office before ducking into the shops building for some shut eye until the following monday.
Project 366. Day 90.
Note!
So I don't come across as completely redundant, I'll be posting the walkthrough for each image in its entirety to my Facebook page - so head on over, make sweet love to the LIKE button, and follow along.

The Story.
Back in February I started work on a project. The genesis of that project was to craft a workbook of my favorite lighting designs, and to push myself to try new techniques. I wanted to do something that would keep me busy in the dead of winter and while I wasn't on assignment, but it grew and grew and grew... and left me with this mess.
And thus this Project 366 was born. The goal is to use, shape, mod and mold light 366 different ways. It's an ambitious goal, and I can tell you from time to time I stumble. Sometimes I fall flat on my face. Not every one of the images included are world-beaters, but then some of them never were designed to be. I've held back from posting this for quite some time because I wanted to make sure that I could see it through - if I'm out shooting all day on assignment, sometimes the last thing I want to do is come home and shoot some more. But I did it, all for the sake of light. And now I'm going to share it.

52 Weeks in the SPC. Week 6/52
For more information on this project click here!
My sixth entry for the 52 Weeks project. I like the first umbrella shot we did ( click here for that one ) but since I cheated and shot that two weeks early, we had to revisit this one.
Old MacDonald's Spooky Farm is a veritable treasure trove of photo good times. Megan and I have made a few trips out to the farm with a few more in the works - we haven't exercised all the demons in Spooky the Bear just yet.
This is a slightly darker take on the work Megan and I did in the Spooky Barn. I gelled the flash with a deep blue/purple to match the colour of the umbrella and bicycle seat and went to work from there. The shadows on the crate + bike tell me my flash to the left went off, too.
Yesterday I did an engagement shoot with my brother Jim and his fiancée, Lisa. We shot more than 500 frames over a half dozen locations and once again ended at Old MacDonald's Spooky Farm. A treasure trove, I tell you!

A section of the Thornton Cookstown Trans Canada Trail.
" A shared use trail (walking, cycling, horseback riding, cross country skiing, snowmobiling) between the villages of Thornton and Cookstown, Ontario. This rail trail travels through green pasture land and forests, and crosses the Cookstown Creamery Creek six times. The trail offers a scenic walk or ride to anyone who enjoys the great outdoors. See how the colours change daily as wildflowers take turns to display their magnificent blooms. You may also see wildlife, such as deer, beavers, rabbits, raccoons, porcupines, foxes, groundhogs, turtles and all kinds of birds. A lot of beaver activity is visible from this trail.

📍 Innisfil, Ontario 🇨🇦

I was watching the weather closely this morning as some wicked storms were marching from Michigan into Ontario. Normally these storms tend to die out and then redevelop in the afternoon, but not this one. The storm front kept marching along eastward at around 80km/h. Once it was over the Grey Highlands and not letting up any steam I figured the likelihood of a good storm in my area was high. So I headed out to a spot just south of my house in Barrie to the 20th Sideroad in Innisfil to a location i know that has wide open farmers fields and perfect for photographing the storm.
.
Once the storm marched closer I knew I was in for a treat. The storm was moving quick so I didn't have much time to figure out how I was going to photograph it. I decided on a pano overlooking the road and it just seemed that everything lined up perfectly !
