Photography group

I'm a member of the  Montreal Lakeshore University Women's Club's photography group which is run by Maria Korab-Lakowska.  We just spent a weekend at the cottage on Lake Memphremagog honing our picture taking skills.  And rowing skills.  We had a great time, great food that everyone brought, and lots of good conversation. 



 It was raining gently as we drove down so here is a misty St Benoit du Lac.

I hope you enjoyed these pictures as much as I did taking them.  Comments are most welcome.

Text'Art cottage excursions

Here are a few photos from an excursion to the Tomifobia trail - a lovely converted railway bed that runs from the border in Beebe to Ayer's Cliff.  It's nicely groomed and wild flowers, brambles and trees grow beautifully along it.  


Chicory.  Now if I could only make it grow in my wild flower garden!

Cut hay - hopefully this will be great background for something in photoshop.

More texture - peeling paint.

It was hard to get close to this little guy but we could here him loud and clear.
