Up, earlier than sunrise, traveling, from High Level to Fort Vermilion … early, early morning to witness all that comprises sunrise – the Peace River looking east from Fort Vermilion at the newly risen sun, a beaver marking territory, a Buttertown homestead and cattails coloured in spring splendor.

    1. Hey there, Jim …

      The homestead is one that I’m coming back to time and time again throughout the year – age and former time attract; more recent shots have to do with the homestead within setting. Lines of the homestead seem to give it strength and are at contrast with the surroundings of lake, field/pasture and trees/foliage.

      I’m liking the sunrise shot, too, and am likely to explore water shots.

      Take care … 😉

  1. I was going to comment about the light in the first photo and then got completely distracted by the beaver! 🙂 enjoyed this post!
