This is a shot that I took last fall on my way
back from Winnipeg, Manitoba. We were driving through the Lake Superior
region, and during one of our many stops through this wonderfully beautiful
portion of the Canadian countryside, I came upon this little scene. I must
admit, it was somewhat staged; the butterfly was dead.
This one has always been pone of my favorites. It
reminds me of my grandparents cottage in the Whiteshell region of Ontario
where these flowers grow seemingly everywhere. I took this shot in the
winter of 1993/94 about 15 minutes north of Ajax, Ontario. I believe the
flower is called "Queen Anne's Lace", but for some reason the name "Oatmeal"
or similar rings a bell as well. It would be great if someone could actually
tell me what the real name is...
This was also taken during that same trip as
above. It may not come across all that well in the thumbnail, but I have
always admired the tremendous loneliness of this shot. My father took one
similar back in the early eighties at my grandparent's cottage. Perhaps if I
can persuade him to let me take it out of the frame, I can post it here as
well.
