One morning a few autumns ago my pilot friend Jim, bundled a bleary eyed photographer, into a small chilly single engine plane. It was misty cold morning towards the end of October. We took off, just as dawn broke and by the time we were 500 feet in the air I was no longer sleepy, I was enthralled. Below me was were the farmlands and hills of Southern Ontario painted with the colours of fall and wrapped here and there in a mist filled with long shadows cast by the rising sun.

The view was breathtaking, and I captured many photographs in the next hour and a half that are the best I have ever taken.

Here in a small valley, in the Caledon Hills, the fog, illuminated by the low sun gave a modern cluster of building a mysterious look, as if we were looking down into an ancient landscape, from hundred of years in the past.

We watched in awe as the sun broke the horizon painting the morning mist golden pouring its radiance over fields and through autumn’s painted trees gently waking the land still wrapped in the wisps of last nights dreams

Autumn Glory- Mono Cliffs

Later in the flight, after the fog had been dissipated by the rising sun new wonders appeared and this aerial photograph was taken on the same October morning. The trees were at the height of their autumn colour display.

This is a rift in the Niagara Escarpment (a geologic feature left behind by the retreating glaciers about ten thousand years ago) it is north of Toronto Ontario.

Hedgerows and Hay Bails
AS we were on our way back to the airport we passed over farmers fields. Here you can see the bails of Hay that had been recently bundled.

Symbolically Canada

The Maple leaf is the prime symbol of Canada. It appears prominently on Canada's flag

The Angel Appears

When I took this photo I had no idea that it would become proof? that angels exist. Look in the window.

Crystal Dream

I am standing (shivering on my skis) about 200 m from the main gondola lift of Mont. Tremblant Ski Resort about 150 km North of Montreal Quebec. The temperature is about -35C and the air is filled with ice crystal fog. You can just make out the ski run called Le Edge starting at the top of the peak on the left.

Daybreak
This is sunrise at the Mussellman's bed and breakfast (Woodland Springs: now sadly closed) just outside of the city of Huntsville and not far from Algonquin Provincial Park. Algonquin is the crown jewel in Ontario's Park system.
