Summer for me is the season of life, and vitality. When the world is in bloom, and in its most lush state. I am out and about, emerged in its ever present beauty. Wherever I step, I cannot escape it. Whether I be strolling down a far away trail in the woods, or in a city. Here are my 10 favourite summertime photos of 2009 - taken around Cornwall and Kingston, Ontario.
HONEY BEE
HERON
A Great Blue Herron is Perched on a log and is waiting for a fish or frog to pounce on with his strong and agile beak
HELM
A sail boat is left unattended at the Ferry Dock in Marysville. I look in to get a shot
AS THE SUN SETS
Taken on one of the hottest evenings of 2009 while strolling along the artificial creek at the Cornwall Eco Garden.
TURBINE
Taken on Wolfe Island, 1 of 86 wind turbines put up last winter, taken while cycling on an extreamly remote gravel road at the far western tip of the Island . Because of its futuristic appearance I just played around with the hue a little bit to give it a surrealist look, and this is what I thought looked good.
CLOCK TOWER
The clock tower from the old Cornwall Post Office which is now the centre peice of Lameroux Park in Downtown Cornwall. I took this picture while crunched over in the flowerbeds to get that distinctive angle.
BLACK EYED SUZY
Ok, I know the title of this article is "Colours of Summer" but I could not resist to put something in B@W in here, so here it is. A beautiful Black Eyed Susan Photo shot in macro mode, with a nice grainy effect.

CATHCART TOWER
Cathcart Tower is a Martello Tower in the city of Kingston. During the American Revolution this was used to gaurd the city of an attack. However fortunately the American attack never came. During the 19th century this was one of the most important harbours in Canada.
