Serenity for me has always been looking over lake up at my cottage or enjoying a cup of coffee with a book on the deck.





















When Dad lived with us he used to love going down to the park at the end of the our street and sitting on the bench or his walker and just enjoying the view of his ‘ocean’, which was actually Lake Ontario.

Looking back 10 years ago. It’s rare to see trumpeter and mute swans so close together. The trumpeter are the ones with the yellow tags.

There is no particular theme this week so I’ve chosen to post photos of angles, both geometric and organic.

The day was misty and grey and the city across from the lake was hidden by the fog.
