Summer Extension
Generally in this part of the world, the door to Summer is considered to close on Labour Day Weekend.
Occasionally Mother Nature forgets and leaves it wide open for another week or so.
When that happens, gloriously calm and luxurious afternoons occur.
The illusion that this will continue forever is strong, despite the certain knowledge that it can’t come true.
Lake Nipissing shows itself at its best during these special times.

I find it impossible to align their thinking with the calm and delicacy I see here.

Winter Calm
When you hate winter, you risk not seeing this.
Calm, pristine, delicate, comforting elegant.
Real and ephemeral at the same time.
A sweet memory for the next time you pass this way.

The walk that you make after the storm is often filled with pristine and gentle delicacy.
The memory of yesterday’s mayhem is erased by the beauty remaining after the event has passed.

Quiet And Calm
Late November morning, crisp, windless.
Sparse snowflakes drift lazily to meet the water.
In the distance,
The Bay turns around the corner and meets the Lake.
Quietly.

Lake Nipissing Afternoon
Lake Nipissing has many moods.
Late in November come days when the wind is calm, the sky is tranquil and the light is wonderful.
This is the “waiting” time of year.
Quiet anticipation of events to come is in the air.
