Some say that Elk Island National Park is one of the most boring parks in Canada and, to some extend, they have a point. We don't have dramatic mountains or oceans, we don't have desert, cool rock formations, hot springs or geysers. What we do have, however, is peace, quiet beauty, a bit of wildlife and a lake that can reflect sunset colors and often does an awesome job of it.

As you have probably surmised, I am not the greatest fan of winter.  I do, however, appreciate how beautiful it can be during certain conditions. We have not had a chance to visit Elk Island this winter too often but, even so, came out with bunch of nice shots from our outings.

Well, apparently, it's spring... It is difficult to believe it somehow with snow falling and wind blowing outside.  It's going to be a few more weeks before we will see anything green around. But I will not despair. I will simply look at my pictures from last spring and enjoy them with a hope to witness similar views soon.
