Post a Comment On: Exposure : Ron's Ramblings

[Image] Parliament Hill & Ottawa River It’s been a good year. We stayed close to home for 2014 and mostly worked in Ontario. Our province is plenty big enough to keep us busy. Lori and I recently visited Ottawa. We stayed in Gatineau across from the Museum of History.

There was a thin film of ice close to shore that produced a good reflection. [Image] Parliament Hill & Ottawa River We wandered Parliament Hill on a cold December afternoon. [Image] Parliament Hill, Ottawa, Ontario I wanted to walk here. I needed to walk up to the doors under the Peace Tower. The shooting in Ottawa on October 22 was disturbing but I hope it will not limit our access to our public spaces. [Image] The National War Memorial I also wanted to visit Wakefield, Quebec. It is a short drive from Gatineau. There is a covered bridge that spans the Gatineau River. It was a little difficult to access a good view with snow and ice along the edge. We parked and walked along the river. A short slide down a hill provided access. [Image] Wakefield Covered Bridge, Quebec I’m not sure where 2015 will take us. We may head east, maybe west. Regardless, we will continue to crisscross our country in all seasons in search of images. Here are a few other highlights of 2014: [Image] Georgian Bay Shores [Image] Snowy Owl [Image] Northern Leopard Frog [Image] Whitewater Region Ontario All the best for 2015!
