Still in the archives today, and in Algonquin Park, with these two fall shots I took some years ago. Costello Creek runs down from Lake Opeongo in the Highway 60 corridor. The lake is a well known launching off spot for canoe trips, and one can expect canoes to be found along this quiet stream during the summer while driving up to the lake. This large boulder is a familiar sight on the way.
This view of the creek looking northward on its way to the lake has good fall colours as well.
Nice colours in the second shot.
ReplyDeleteBoth photos are well done, filled with interest. My two sons would want to climb those boulders!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful nature... Excellent photos and reflection on it
ReplyDeleteMore shots filled with serenity and the reflections are so nice in the first one.
ReplyDeleteI like both pictures. I like the colors and reflection especially in the first picture.
ReplyDeleteeven they are from archive. I believe, fall is already there and this year's fresh pictures will be here on your blog soon..

I see you are a lover of nature, that you see her better than it is, therefore, because you love her.
ReplyDeleteTomás.
Oh! It's so beautiful! I love that second shot!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots of the landscape during fall. The colours are beautiful in both photos, but I prefer the first one because of the wonderful refelction of the rocks.
ReplyDeleteVery nice fall colours. I like this season.
ReplyDeleteWe paddled down Costello Creek with the kids about 25 years ago! Beautiful little creek.
ReplyDeletethat last shot is gorgeous.
ReplyDelete@Linda: thanks!
ReplyDelete@Lynette: I know the impulse!
@Viera: thank you!
@Kay: that stream is a pleasant one to follow, so reflections are quite common.
@Feyza: I've already been looking at some fall colours and thinking of angles for shots.
@Tomas: I do!
@Tamera: thanks.
@Jan: fall is a lovely season.
@Marianne: so do I.
@Gnome: I've never paddled it, but driving past people in canoes is quite an experience.
@Tex: thank you!
A pretty fall scene.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fabulous vista William, can imagine how popular it would be during summer and autumn and spring too I guess.
ReplyDeleteMust be a great area for hiking. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteComing soon to a creek near you. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful nature photography!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. A great treat to see these photos, today. I'm in an autumn sort of mood!

@Sharon: thanks!
ReplyDelete@Grace: it's very popular in all seasons. The road's kept open in winter- there's a research facility up at the lake along with the facilities for canoe trips- and I've been up that road with snow still around everything.
@Marleen: it certainly is.
@Revrunner: I wouldn't mind being there now.
@Norma: thank you!
@Greensboro: so am I.
I like spending my vacations in big cities, but after a few days you miss places like these!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful landscape and shot!
ReplyDeleteThe big stone in the picture, it's like a monster! Sorry for my brain...
ReplyDeletelooks so calm & peaceful. ( ;
ReplyDeleteThe top image looks like a wale to me.
ReplyDeleteOr is it whale. I should know. Crap.
ReplyDelete@VP: I would miss never getting to such places again.
ReplyDelete@Jeroen: thank you!
@Peter: it does have a Moby Dick thing going on for it.
@Beth: in my experiences seeing that stream, it usually is.
@Whisk: I can see something of a whale in it.
Everyone knows Autumn's flamboyance, but you well show it's mousey glories

What a beautiful, expansive landscape. Hope you'll show us the autumn colors there when they come.
ReplyDeleteNice shots.
ReplyDeleteLovely tranquil views!
ReplyDeleteI know this spot well!!
ReplyDeleteThat boulder looks like a large stone frog with its mouth open.
ReplyDeleteI love this photo. It reminds me of some I've taken in Bala, Muskoka, where we used to live!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lovely place. Hope you'll do some autumn pix, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful. I am a big fan of marshes.
ReplyDeleteLove the different brown shades!
ReplyDelete@Cloudia: thanks!
ReplyDelete@ODP: they're magnificent in Algonquin.
@Randy: thanks!
@Linda: definitely.
@EG: it's a wonderful drive up that way.
@Gerald: I can see that.
@Jennifer: it's that part of the province.
@Cheryl: I have to get back out that way.
@Jack: so am I.
@Jose: so do I.
