From mid September a couple of peaceful sunrise shots.  

 Saw this shot while out walking near Beamer's Falls.  It was a great day for boundless fall colours everywhere, but I also like how more negative space in your photos can put more emphasis on a single subject.

The dark clouds in this sunrise give an angry look to the morning sky.

Here is a photo of a sailboat on Lake Ontario with the Toronto skyline in the background, edited with the Prisma app (Education setting).  The picture was taken from the south side of Lake Ontario looking north.

Not the Red Sea, but rather a red sunrise morning looking out onto Lake Ontario.

This fellow was having fun flying across the lake on his water hoverboard.  I had fun with the Prisma app and MirrorArt app making these creations.  

This intense rainbow stayed in place for more than half an hour and demanded that I stop the car and take its picture.  OK, rainbow.

This capture is just before sunrise in late August.  From this angle, the sunrise moves from left to right over the summer.  the colours are most often much better just before sunrise.  I like to include sky and Lake Ontario in the photo as well as a bit of land to 'ground' the shot.

Sunday was a Fun Day  @StudioOneElevenBrantford  as 7 photographers paired up with 7 incredible dancers for a "Creative Exchange - Dance Edition", the first in a series of photoshoots at this exciting new studio. I took about 400 shots in a couple of hours working with these talented models/dancers. Here are a few of my favourite captures.  #jo_dance5678   #taylorbelfry   #jorjabrown .dance  #fourlensdotca   #StudioOneElevenCreativeExchange

 This fine, feathered fellow was guarding the second hole at Oak Gables Golf Course in Ancaster Ontario.  Hey, ball hawk: "Did you see where my ball went?"

The sky looks a tad ominous in this sunset over Lake Ontario from August.

This blue sailboat happened to pass by on a day where Lake Ontario was particularly blue.

This photo of a bee hard at worked was edited in the MirrorArt app to add in the pretending magnifying glass.

Orange clouds and a pastel sky highlight this shot just before sunrise. 

 If only my golf game yesterday was as spectacular as the fall colours on the golf course! (It wasn't)

From late August, the sky is somewhat gloomy as the sun is setting in the left of this shot.

This shot of fall colours in Stoney Creek Ontario was selected to appear on the local TV news during their weather segment.  It is a shot of the changing colours on the Niagara escarpment.

According to Wikipedia, Flint corn (also known as Indian corn or calico corn) is a variant of maize, the same species as common corn.  Each kernel has a hard outer layer, likened to being as hard as flint; hence the name flint corn.

These two shots were taken on the same day, one from a nearby observation tower looking down and the other from the bow of the "Hornblower" looking up.  

Sunrises over Lake Ontario typically come in various shades of orange.  Here is a red one from mid-August. 

While sitting inside a friend's cottage discussing an English rock band with the strange name "Porcupine Tree", there was a visiting rodent in the bushes outside.  On closer look it was a chubby, spikey porcupine.  Shy from the camera, I suppose, he hauled himself rather quickly up a nearby tree and sat on this branch exhausted from his climb.  

This photo of a water lily was taken outside the front of the main theatre in Stratford Ontario.  The Prisma app was used to give a more painterly look to the photo.

Here is a full arc rainbow taken earlier this summer.
