Hmm...Well about a week has elapsed so I guess I am due for an update.

These shots are from immediately after the Prince Edward County trip. We were in Algonquin for 5 days. I saw some pictures of another route that looks just awesome and think I might try to do it for the end of the year...can't even wait for next summer!

I actually was hoping to get more great shots, but it felt like I always had the wrong lens on. It made me think I should have sprung for the 18-200 afterall. Nikon also has some new ones coming out, including a 25-300, that might be worth investigating!

The following morning.
I woke up really early, and fought the urge stay in the sleeping bag for a few more hours. Unzipped the front door of the tent and looked out at this! Guess it's worth getting up early afterall.
I have no idea what kind of growth this is, but it was HUGE. Like the size of, I don't know, 2 hamburgers or something? (Here's a little secret..it's HDR.) I just noticed it seems a little yellow...will fix that...
I've been meaning for some time now to try HDR photography. It seemed to be a little more work than it's worth, and I had mixed feelings about it. Well, I tried it out, and it's not difficult at all. And I am convinced that there are some situations where it really is advantageous....as long as you don't get carried away. I tried to keep them realistic looking. I didn't use a tripod for these, but will next time! Curious to know what your thoughts are....
This third image (taken near the Lincoln Fields bus station) is not an HDR, but I took it today and it makes me happy.
