Iain Leitch Photography

During this week I managed to get out and take some photos of the city I've called home for the past year and a bit. I managed to get out during golden hour (right before the sun sets where everything looks golden) to take some pictures which is something I can't often do due to school. The first picture is of the courthouse in Peterborough. The courthouse sits on top of a large hill in the city and has a very nice walk up to the courthouse. The second photo was taken from the Hunter Street bridge which crosses the Otonabee River. It is overlooking the river and the fall colors that are just showing up on the trees. The third photo is of an Anglican church that sits on the edge of the same hill that the courthouse sits on. The fourth picture is the path you would take to get up to the courthouse. It is showing off the vibrant fall colors of the maple trees in Victoria Park. The last photo is just showing the last rays of the sun breaking through a tree in the Memori...

Autumn has been slow to come for much of Southern Ontario. It has been overly warm the past couple weeks but it is just now starting to cool down which means the leaves on the trees are showing signs of change. This past weekend was Thanksgiving in Canada which meant that I went home. Well, I was only home for a short visit I still managed to go for a walk in the woods and grab some pictures. The first picture shows the reflection of the trees on the water. You are able to see the slight change in color on one of the trees. The second picture is of a dragonfly resting on a plant beside the trail. The third picture is taken from the bench in the first picture. It is just the other side of the lake showing the reflection of the trees and the pond. The last picture is on a country road on the way back home. It shows that the leaves on the maples are just startign to change.

I would like to apologize for not posting in over a month. I have been busy with school and didn't actually take my camera out of its bag until last Monday. I am also aware I normally post on Sunday but because I haven't posted in so long here is a surprise Thursday post. I will post next Sunday again. Here are some pictures I found on my memory card that I never got around to posting. The first is a sailboat moored to a buoy.  This was taken when we drove down a road looking for a beach to go and explore. The second is a harbor walk in the town of Charlottetown. I like it because it is nicely framed by trees and the light is really nice.
