Final group from the fall stream pictures
Ok ... here are the final pictures from the fall at the cottage. We can now move on!
Fall Colours and Streams
The next few days (ok ... several) of posts are going to be of the cottage and of fall colours.
Time (and friends) Fly When you are Having Fun
As promised ... I had to try the trick again a couple of times (see the last post). This time I tried it out with a friend! I'm still enjoying the magic of this kind of photography. Enjoy.
Cottage Landscapes from a Kayak
It is one thing taking landscape pictures at the cottage. It is an entirely different thing leaning over your kayak with your expensive equipment to try and get the angle right for an image. All in all I think the couple of images below turned out well.
The Quack Made Him Croak
Here another couple of "wildlife" images from a weekend up at the cottage. Nothing special except that the frog image took way longer than it should have to get since they kept on jumping out of the way of the kayak ... go figure!
Action Montage
Getting tired of watching GuynS jump off the dock at the cottage? Well that seemed to be the bulk of my shots from that weekend! Don't worry though, this is the last post in this series of GuynS leaping. There are a few more wildlife and landscape shots to come though ...
The three images below are one in the same. I wanted to put together a series of beginning to end of GuynS' leaps. Unfortunately, I found that a couple of those images deserved some face time of their own. Below is the montage of four images and two on which I loved his body language / expressions.
The second image below is my favourite since it has spot on focus and since GuynS is 100% focused directly on me / the camera. The third image below is SLIGHTLY off on the focus but I loved the expression on his face and the placement of the ears.
A Leap and A Cackle
As promised here is another one of the the famous flying GuynS and the second one is of him looking a little to happy with himself!
GuynS Leaping Off the Dock
For the next few posts we can finally move away from the Papanack Zoo and back to cottage pictures from this summer. I hope you like animal action shots because the next few posts are of GuynS leaping off of the dock!
Diving Attack
So apparently GuynS is a mean dog. While the other one in the water, Shadow, was intently focussing on the weird guy with the camera, GuynS seizes his window of opportunity. This series of four images shows a: just how intently Shadow was staring at me, b: how oblivious shadow was of his surroundings and c: how intentional GuynS' attack really was. Enjoy.
Flying GuynS
This weekend we ended up putting a floating dock into the lake. One of the really fun parts of this was teaching / convincing GuynS to jump off the end into the water. The fun thing about showing GuynS to jump off the dock is getting pictures of it!!
Morning Photography
Here is another continuation of the foggy morning at the cottage. The second one one I find appealing due to the calm nature of the water and the fact that unless you purposely look for it you may miss the fact that the bottom of the image is in fact the sand under the water. This one is similar to another I took during a summer morning at the cottage.

Foggy Morning = Black and White
Ok so maybe the title of this post isn't ALWAYS true, but this foggy morning just screamed black and white to me. Even when I tried to edit it into a colour image in post I still couldn't bring myself to finish it in anything other than B&W. This is the same foggy morning as the last two posts with GuynS portraits and here are the three black and white landscapes that arose from the mist.
