Fall Rhapsody – Weekend 2

For the second weekend in a row, Mother Nature cooperated weather-wise. I took my Camera down to the Ottawa River Pathway System and did a 12km walk (see route at the bottom). The leaves and skies were spectacular. I think we are so lucky to have pathways like this in our city.

For these shots, Nikon D5300, Kit Lens, and Fish-eye Lens, ISO 200

Fall Rhapsody – Thanksgiving Weekend

The leaves were at their peak this past Thanksgiving Weekend. My wife and I decided we would go out to a local favourite of ours for a walk and maybe take some photos of the local wildlife. Mer Bleu Bog boardwalk is a must do at almost any time of year. We knew we wouldn’t be be able to walk around this weekend as the cars were lined up 500 meters down each side of the road outside the generous parking lot. So we turned around and captured a couple of back country road shots and then we took a drive to the Aviation Parkway and we made our way down to Sussex Drive. We parked near Old City Hall and we took a walk around the building. We crossed the Minto Bridges (Circa 1900) and then along Sussex Drive. I used my Nikon D5300 and my Kit lens for all the shots. ISO 100, various F-stops and Shutter Speeds. Have a look below and let the spectacular colours speak for themselves.
