There is a beautiful symmetry here, along with the fall colors.

I like it a lot. I hope you're finding peace here.

The keys seem to be a combination of retirement, a change of location to a more natural setting, and above all, time.

Oh, and juicy impeachment hearings...

Thanks for saying hi!

We were robbed this year. Just as the leaves were starting to show a tiny bit, a killer freeze came along and now everything has a grey/green color and just dropping off the trees and shrubs, no foliage this year.

I used to live a bit west of there and fall was always spectacular. Someone who still lives there took this shot a few days ago...



I miss being there so very much.

The Gatineau hills and the Ottawa River are an unbeatable combination.

I used to be a hard-core journalistic photographer. Now I only shoot pretty - it's a lot easier on my heart.
