Last week we spent six wonderfully relaxing days at the cottage: sipping tea, reading books, knitting mittens, and snuggling by the fireplace on those rainy days – glorious! Lots of photography too.
This image is one of my favourites. I took it from our neighbour’s dock on one very cold windy evening. I was afraid I wasn’t going to get many pictures that day because of all the rain but it let up just as the sun was going down so we (Darren/my assistant and I) were able to rush out and capture a few images before the daylight was replaced with night.
For me this photograph is full of memories:
- cool mornings with a cup of tea watching the sunrise
- daybreak pedal boat tours around the lake
- kids running and leaping into the water
- warm days spent floating and staring up at the sun
- carefree summers at the cottage
- long evenings spent watching the sunset
We’re coming to the end of another summer cottage season, fortunately I have images like this one that will get me through the coming winter. What are your favourite memories of summer?
{this photograph will soon be available as a limited edition print in our shop, stay tuned to the blog for details}

Jennifer, this is a stunningly beautiful image. It is very contemplative. Makes one think of all the possibilities. Bravo!
Thanks for your kind words Ann Marie! I find I quite easily get lost in thought looking at this image.
