The Tay is the longest river in Scotland and the sixth longest in the United Kingdom. It starts in the Scottish Highlands, and moves east until it goes through Perth. Its mouth is wide, and is called the Firth of Tay on the east coast. Dundee is on the north bank of the Firth. https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Tay

Water, Water Everywhere….February 27, 2024

I never get tired of the waterfront that I live close to (literally 100m from my house). It changes with the season, the wind, time of day and the weather. Earlier this week the water was dead calm. Very unusual for this time of year but the entire winter this year has been unusual. Little to no snow, mild temperatures, rain and then sudden drops in temperature that last for one to three days.

I’m always trying to find different ways to photograph the water that surrounds us. Here are my latest attempts to do just that.

Water, Water Everywhere – Real Pond vs Weather Created Pond

….after a heavy downpour on Saturday the ground was so saturated that ponds appeared over the grass

The ducks loved it and enjoyed their new pond for at least a day. They aren’t that evident in my photos because they swam further away when I walked closer to the edge of the newly formed pond.

The Pond at Col. Sam Smith Park, after being almost completely drained of water a month ago has come back to its former self probably due to the heavy rainfall on the weekend. Sadly the day was still overcast but at least the rain had stopped.

I live by Lake Ontario so water is literally everywhere for me. Today I tried to capture the water from different angles.
