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.

Great Blue Heron

Great Blue Herons are found on Lake Nosbonsing. They are quite wary and they tend to jump up and fly away when they think you are getting too close. “Too close” is usually about twice as far as you think it should be because you mean them no harm.

But they don’t know that and so they take no chances.

They are elegant and graceful flyers, their large wings making beautiful curves as they move through the air.

Oak Street

For many years in North Bay, the term “Oak Street” carried with it the ideas of “run-down” and “seedy”.

Not any more!

Rebuilding the roadway and sidewalks and subsequent refurbishment of the buildings by the owners has seen a rebirth of the area.

Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes.  Oak Street is Back!

Hosta

Hostas are plants that have elegant curves and surfaces.

They are unspectacularly spectacular in their form and design.

Another Elegant Storefront

This is another of the really neat storefronts on North Bay’s Main Street.

Clean, elegant, uncluttered.  The light fixtures and colour choices add a cool retro look and feel.

Pearls

North Bay’s Main Street has developed a little section of elegant, neatly designed storefronts.

“Pearls” is one.

The colours in the designs are incorporated upward to the second stories of the old buildings as well.
