These photos are not intended to be photos of beautiful art form – They are photos intended to show you what I saw and enjoyed on my morning ride.  I carried my D5300 with me and kept it set to aperture priority at f7.1 – I forget the ISO limit I set but I normally set it high. Most of the time the camera software chose 400-800 I think.  I did some post processing on each photo to crop and play with tone and saturation.

The temperature  was still in the high 40’s and the sun was bright – perfect for me and animals!:

For starters – Spring is about to emerge – The yellow flowers in the background told me that.
In fact I looked right into the Lady’s slipper.
I know these two – they survived the winter & hunting season – They are saying to me -“Where have you been all winter? – Great to see you back – but why have you not put out apples for us?”   They do not understand I sold the place.
There are families every where.
More families.
Nothing special here, unless you enjoy early morning boat rides – I do.
Oops – mine in the used boat sales wharf.
Just had to snap this shot – made me laugh – in days gone by I tapped maple trees – never thought of this idea. Ha Ha!
This is my people friendly Gull – We call him/her Gully. A friend of mine feeds him hard boiled eggs from time to time – But his/her real food source is another friend who fishes every day – rain, sun, or snow – and this Gull sits on her boat waiting for hand outs for an hour or so every day! As you see he/she stood right there posing for this “Photo Opportunity” – Of course, her/she expected to be paid with a minnow for breakfast.
As you swing through life, I hope you can find and enjoy  your own “Drummond” for your time outdoors!
