In this morning sunrise shot, the sun seems to be peeking through some low clouds at the horizon.

 This fine fish is eyeballing people outside his tank in the Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto.

 There was plenty of rain in the area last month.   Here is my grandson out for a stroll testing out my new golf umbrella and wondering when the weather will allow us to golf again.

The fellow on the right has a nice fish on the line (or a bad snag) !  Photo was taken on the waterways around Toronto Island.  Cropping was done in Luminar NEO with the CompositionAI tool.

Full moon rising as viewed from the shore of Lake Ontario in Grimsby.

  Here are a couple of recent sunrises over Lake Ontario.  With today being our house move, I'll no longer have this vantage point for such orange beauty.

Up close and personal with this tortoise at Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto.

Having some fun with last month's photo group challenge called "Under My Umbrella".   This is my grandson 'flying' down to the Maid of the Mist as it sails past the American Falls at Niagara.

Occasionally, a sun dog will appear in the sky when the sun shines through ice crystals in the atmosphere to make a rainbow in the sky.  In the left side of this photo, a rainbow in the sky reflects onto Lake Ontario.

 Here are a couple more iPhone shots from the photo outing to the JP Niagara Tulip Experience.  Love the red and yellows!!

The jelly fish exhibits at the Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto are beautiful, especially the ones with the vibrant colours.

While visiting the tulip farm last week, I noticed this young lady standing very still, presumably thinking about the tulips.  Her floral dress seemed to be appropriate for the location and her stillness made for an interesting shot.  The only editing done to the photo was a minor crop to position her along the 'rule of thirds'.

  I captured this sunrise a week or so ago using my 100mm lens ball.  

 The Grimsby Photography Group has monthly photo assignments and last month's assignment was "Under My Umbrella".  This was one of my two submissions.

The nice thing about walking under the glass tunnel at the Ripley Aquarium is seeing the creatures from different angles.  The ray's are particularly interesting from underneath as they appear to have a big, wide smile.  Happy Ray!

I think the best way to get shots of the Toronto skyline is from a boat in Toronto Harbour.  These were taken last weekend while on a harbour and Toronto Island tour.

I saw this scene whilst driving through some country roads and did a quick U-turn to go back and shoot it.  The pond was large and close to the road.  The sun was setting.  The tree made for a lovely reflected silhouette.  It was selected by CHCH News to air during their broadcast and represents my 8th photo on CHCH.  

Earlier this week I went to a fun photo outing at JP Niagara Tulip Experience in North Pelham.  There weren't many places to set down my 100mm lens ball but I did find a Muskoka Chair with an inviting arm. In the coming days I will share more tulip photos from the visit.

This bad boy swam over us as we travelled through the glass tunnel at Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto.   Original photo was edited with the Prisma app on the iPad.

 Too much time away from the blog and I have a backlog of shots ready to load in.  Here's a start with a recent sunset in Grimsby Ontario, reflected in a nearby stream.  It was worth getting muddy knees to get my iPhone as close as possible to water level!
