 for glorious colour.

I love to get up early enough to catch the rising sun.

Here is a selection of photos from our recent Sharbot Lake adventure....

but which to paint????

Sharbot Lake Photo Trip

A quick weekend away 

and some opportunities 

to stock up on fresh ideas.

Our destination 

Sharbot Lake Provincial Park 

in Ontario. 

Day one -rain,rain, rain...

Our original reservations 

at another park cancelled

closed due to flooding.

Not an auspicious start....

but we did find a wonderful site...

with great vistas of the lake.

 

The site itself had a resident, nesting kingfisher. 

Can you see him/her tucked in along the branch?

 

Early next morning the weather cleared...

and brought early morning mists....

 

a beautiful sunrise...

with pristine surfaces...

perfect for a paddle.

As the sun rose

I toured the park and discovered  

several vistas

worthy of painting.

Isn't this park going to be even more glorious in the fall!
