I'd Rather Be There...

[5000 Years Old Man]

Wow. That last one is beautiful.

Edit: The first picture in the last post.

Taha

These are from my old film camera. With digital cameras I cannot get much in the way of unusual lighting -- I suppose the digital logic cannot quite duplicate the more natural physical process of film?

More from the same June 2001 Purple Dusk session:

First photo above was taken with a timer, the second photo below was taken a couple hours later at an actual encounter: who yields, the old goat or the young goat?

the goat simply jumped above me, landed well behind, and kept going

Gid where was the picture above taken? Looks familiar to a part of the path out by the RCMP stables in the east end along the river.

[5000 Years Old Man]

nah -- the last three were all taken from the path just East of the Island Parkway/Champlain bridge to Quebec, in fact the trees in the background are those of that little island

the Ottawa River Parkway used to be on my route to work at Tunney's Pasture; on occasion I would get up way before dawn to stop at some spots and catch the light of the "witching hours"
