Iconic Perce Rock is the background for the Town of Perce, Quebec.
It is hard to imagine ignoring this magnificent natural object while going about one’s daily activities.
However, taking things for granted is a human trait.

Duchesnay Cascade
There is a place near North Bay where Duchesnay Creek finds its way down the escarpment in a series of jumps.
This is one drop and landing for the water.

Channeling Alex Colville
Alex Colville‘s paintings entered my mind when I visited Kelly’s Beach at Kouchibouguac National Park.
The simple compositions that surrounded me that day influenced this photograph.

Fortress of Louisbourg
After many years I returned to visit the Fortress of Louisbourg on Cape Breton Island.
It is still as impressive as it was the last time I visited.
The day was damp and foggy, with drizzle.
It was possible to feel the loneliness and uncertainty of the isolated location on a particularly miserable day.
It is a magnificent restoration.
Founded in 1713, it became an active port for trading and other activities and changed hands several times.
In 1758, the British took it after a siege and it was thoroughly destroyed by British Engineers.
General James Wolfe took part in the Siege of Louisbourg. He died a year later on the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City.
