The Universe (as I see it)

A nature walk in April

It is always amazing to see forests come back to life in the spring. The trees and insects all come alive this time of year, and I wanted to capture some of it. I don’t have much free time now, as I work either at Black’s or my placement every single day for the next month. However, I still like to make time to take pictures.

Here is a Robin I found just off of the walking path hunting for food. It was hoping around for quite a while, finding grubs and worms just under the surface.  It didn’t really seem concerned with me, and posed for this shot!

During my walk on Barrie’s lakeshore, I took a photo of a tree on the shoreline. When I got it back to my computer I noticed how interesting the bark looked. After significantly cropping and rotation the image, and converting it to black & white, the result was this:

I think this is more of my favourite abstract photos, it seems to have to much depth to me. The beauty of having a 21 megapixel camera is I can find things I didn’t see when the camera was in my hands. I want to show you the image that I captured, and the image that I found within it:

I had a great time, even if I was just out in nature for less than an hour today. Its great to get a breath of fresh air and enjoy the changing seasons. Check out the rest of the photos below!
