Happy Howl-oween

I'm not saying that I want to break the internet with this cuteness... I'm just saying it's a possibility. Enid is the latest foster Mamma at Broken Promises Rescue, and her puppies are majorly adorable. Here are a couple Halloween themed pics I had to sneak in just under the wire. 

The cutest pumpkin around

Bones are for chewing right?!

Algonquin Provincial Park

In August I got to take my adventuring, and my camera East for a canoe trip in Ontario's lake country. It was a great trip with great people.  

Sunset on our first night at North Tea Lake West

Sunrise with a few new friends

Je suis un anana - awesome fire pit in our site for night two on North Tea Lake East

Our site for night two also came with an angry pine cone throwing squirrel...

...And some really neat mushrooms

Exploring around Lost Dog Lake we found some handy work of Canada's majestic beaver on this beautiful golden birch

Our site on Lost Dog Lake for the final night


We were paddling around the lake exploring and pumping water, when suddenly the setting sun cast this incredible light across the moody sky. It only lasted a moment and was gone.

Being a coastal girl, I never had a true appreciation for lake fish. But this fresh caught trout roasted over the fire was unbelievable.

An epic sunset on our final night

And then the stars put on a show. This picture is not particularly sharp as I do not have an off camera shutter release and had to hold my finger on the shutter release for a minute and a half. This is the most successful night sky photo I have taken to date though. Time to invest in a shutter release.
