Trellis leading to a dock on the south shore of Lake SimcoeThis photo make Lake Simcoe look much smaller tan it really is because you are looking from Island Grove over to Snake Island, which is fairly close to the southwestern shore of the lake. Lake Simcoe is a good-sized lake, though not large enough to be one of the five Great Lakes. (You remember the Great Lakes - Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie and Superior - from geography class, right?)

Great shot. I'll bet it is beautiful with vines over the trellis. Go back and take a shot when that happens, ok?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot, EG. Mother Nature is being good for awhile.
ReplyDeleteYes, a shot in a month or so would be neat. MB
How pretty. I like how the sun is contained in the trellis.

Beautiful capture. No, I don't remember anything from geography class. If I've been there, I remember. That's my travel excuse.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful capture. Love the composition!
ReplyDeleteI remember Lake Michigan from last summer... watched the sunset over it... gorgeous!! We don't have lakes that size here. Just swamps.
Thanks for the geography lesson, EG.. I always need reminders like this!!!! ha
ReplyDeleteYour photo is amazing. Love that trellis ---and the sky and water (coloring) is terrific. Thanks.
Hugs,

Great catch! You were at the right place at the right time!
ReplyDeleteI left a comment on the train post also. Don't know how I got behind. . .
I could see some pretty wisteria blossoms hanging from this arch sometime soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat an artistic composition. Love it.
Lake Simcoe may not be large enough to qualify as a Great Lake, but you sure have captured a gorgeous photo. I like the way you framed the sun and reflection with the trellis.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sky shot! Fantastic
ReplyDelete5 lakes.. Got it:) I do pretty badly at the geography computer games that my kids have (hanging head in shame:)
ReplyDeleteI love the way you shot that through the trellis. Beautiful. I don't remember much from geography but on a good day I remember the Great Lakes, ha.
ReplyDeletePerfect composition! Oh and I had forgotten one lake. French school is a long way away!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant capture, you always have a great eye for things like this.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week

ReplyDeleteSweet - and thanks for the Geography class ;) - I don't think they dealt with the great lakes in great detail (maybe due to being in Europe?)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! What a way to watch the day winding down.

ReplyDeleteHow can anything called snake be do drop dead gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI always think of the old saying "On Elizabeth Her Majesty's Service" to remember the order of the great lakes.... Ontario, Erie, Huron, Michigan, Superior.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot looking towards Snake Island.
Nicely done. As I told Daryl, I want to be there too.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the lake with a well detailed description of the surroundings.
