Post a Comment On: Exposure : Ron's Ramblings

Lori and I travelled to Manitoulin Island for a few days. We were there to celebrate her Mother's 89th birthday. Although we were having a good visit, I couldn’t resist sneaking off for some spring shooting. [Image]Birch Tree at Dawn We had good weather. I always see so much when on the Island. With little traffic and abundant wildlife, it is a photographer's dream. [Image]Midland Painted Turtle Everything seemed to be waking up after a long winter.

I just waited for the light to warm up a bit and set a bit lower in the sky. Manitoulin never disappoints!
