Late in the day on the shore of Lake Nipissing.
Tomorrow is another day.

Gray Weekend
A stalled low pressure system has given us a rainy cool weekend.
No worries mate. The rainclouds make for some great monochrome opportunities.
Lake Nipissing is the canvas:
And you only need to bring one brush!
I could have stayed inside and watched the ball game!
Glad I didn’t.

Monastic Pond
There is a pond at the old monastary, now part of Nipissing University.
On a calm morning it is quite tranquil. The greens of spring are just appearing.

North Bay Harbour
The development of the North Bay Waterfront required the construction of a sheltered harbour for small craft. Rock that had been excavated when the NORAD underground site was built was moved from near Trout lake to the waterfront and dumped into Lake Nipissing to form the breakwall in the photograph.
The small boat marina has spaces for 250 craft.

Spring Sunset
The sun sets daily whether the lake is frozen or not.
Sometimes we see it, sometimes we don’t.

Lake Nipissing Ice
The ice in Nipissing is being blown around by the wind.
Sunset point has collected some of the shards of the winter’s ice.

Ice Panes
Looking like panes of broken glass, the thin ice that formed overnight was piled on the shore by this morning’s wind action.
Very delicate.

Ice Beauty
The ice on Lake Nipissing moved a bit last week when the wind blew from the North.
The Canadian Shield, tough and unyielding, piles the ice on top of itself.
Little bother, the sun will remove the burden in the next little while.
*Thanks to Francoise Noel whose blog revealed a new (to me) method of changing colour to monochrome.

Ice Water
The ice is moving away from the shore leaving water in its place.
The black colour shows that it’s getting rotten.
One more week perhaps.

Duchesnay Creek
The early run-off was slowed a day ago by more “normal” temperatures for this time of year. The water flow is a bit less frantic.
Now it feels more like spring than the summer of last week.

Spring Run-off
Duchesnay Falls near town is running fast.
Recent record temperatures have caused the snow to disappear in record time.
The “We’ve got drought!” headlines are about a month away.

Rock Cut Waterfall
In spring the water runs.
This little waterfall won’t be running in about a month.
Enjoy it now!
