I’ve been saving this spot for the right conditions. Last night the conditions were right. On the drive to this spot there was a vivid rainbow to the east. I was not in a good location to capture it and by the time I got to a good spot, set up and was ready to shoot, it was too late. The rainbow had almost disappeared and did not return. Not all was last though. I spent about an hour a half at this location and got a few keepers.  I still get amazing at some of the colors that nature can produce. As I was taking these photos there was a little on an ATV cruising back n forth on the trail/bridge. This little swamp/valley is actually between to properties. Just imagine having this view out your kitchen window everyday.

For the tail end of our summer vacation and the weekend after we headed out to Hecla Island, MB to meet up with friends. This was my first time there and it is very beautiful. My biggest goal was to get some good sunset shots. I spent a few evenings down at the rocky shore and took shots. There are also many great trails around the island and lots to see and do. A group of us went on, what we thought was a short, hike. It turned out to be the long 12km hike. Needless to say, our feet were pretty sore and we were glad to get back to the campsite. One evening while taking sunset photos, a green caterpillar landed on me and hit the ground. I think they wanted me to leave!

On the way to a friend’s place I decided to stop and get some sunset shots. Unfortunately, it was a clear night but I still managed to get a few I liked. I plan to revisit where the top 2 shots were taken when there are some good cloud action happening. Also got a few interesting shots at my friend’s place.
