"Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn." (Elizabeth Lawrence)
So we went out early this evening to a part of the picturesque Rideau Canal to do just that. We met a young lad out for a stroll with his dog, and both of them were obviously enjoying one of the few remaining warm evenings of this beautiful Indian summer. A short while later we came across a father who'd taken his young son and daughter to go fishing off a bridge across the nearby Rideau River (coincidentally I was on this bridge exactly a year ago). It seemed like we each had left something much less important undone.

Greetings from Roberto.
I'm so glad you crossed Darlene's path, Rick, as your work is beyond divine. I get the sense that you see your world with a similar sense of curiosity, and that's always been what drives me as a photographer and a journalist.
Looking forward to sharing more perspectives with you.
It's spectacular. With effect very well made.
What a gorgeous reflection Rick!
Nothing is more beautiful in Autumn to see it in a reflection. A place you need to return to every year at this time.
Love the reflection and colors. We see a spackling of color here, but nothing that makes a beautiful picture. Have a good weekend.
