On Ontario Street in downtown Grimsby, Ontario, is a bright yellow building with a red door. Aside from my ongoing interest in the colour, red (and hence Red Rule applies), I looked at this as an other opportunity to put together an image made largely of rectangles such as bricks, windows, etc, in bright colours, albeit in harsh, mid-day light. - JW

In my hunt for vantage points to view the fall colours on the Niagara Escarpment here in Grimsby, Ontario, I happened to pop in at Trillium Hill Nursery on Grimsby’s West end, along Old Highway #8. When I stepped out of the car in the dying rays of the setting sun, I noticed the fence marking the limit of the parking lot at the storage area for seasonal flowers, currently Chrysanthemums (or just simply, mums). The colours of the panels echoed the colours of many of the remaining mums: red and yellow. The lone white panel is likely a reminder that snow is not that far off. - JW

Revisión del downloading MP3 tras las declaraciones de Bill Gates sobre Open Source, licencias CC y comunismo. Lo malo es que no recuerdo donde la encontré.
Just as the rain ended, I headed out for a walk to downtown Grimsby, Ontario to see if there were any reflections or other traces of the rain that could provide a somewhat different look to the now all-too-familiar downtown subject matter. Passing by the local Wimpy’s hamburger emporium, I spotted some of my favourite brightly polished aluminum chairs and matching tables set up on the patio. Raindrops added texture to the chairs and, by using a longer lense, I was able to frame the arch of the chairs against the red-and-white checkerboard pattern of a section of exterior wall tiles. So, of course, Red Rule applies. - JW

Do you see the kids on top of the bridge?
It took a bit of patiences to get a shot with MOST of the visitors out of frame.
Yet another early morning walk in downtown Grimsby, Ontario yielded a few more hard light, colourful images, this being one. You see here the top part of a sign atop a local financial management firm and two of the three lamps that illuminate it after dark. The sky was a deep blue, balancing the darker blue of the sign. Love the early morning walks even as we practice out social distancing measures. - JW
