Lake Scugog/ Weekend Reflections

Easter afternoon at Port Perry, Ontario

 Last Sunday, the docks in Port Perry were put out and bolted together - so the boating season has officially begun on Lake Scugog. In fact, a few smaller boats were tied to the docks and ready to go.

To enjoy reflections from around the world, visit James' WEEKEND REFLECTIONS at Newtown Area Photo.

    Sure looks like summer is on its way. I've been sitting here mulling over the name Scugog. Interesting.

    Hurray for the start of the season - now summer can't be far behind!

    PS You should have seen how many kites there were on the beach, literally dozens, I've never seen anything like it. Must have been the combination of the holiday and the sudden good weather.

    I like the tongue-twister names given to some of the place away up thataway!

    Scugog! I tried to say that real fast 10 times and fell down and hit my head which made me laugh so hard I bumped into the wall.

    You've got to be more careful about what you post! :-)

    But I have to say this is a fine photo and enticing as all get out and I can smell that water and the boats and want badly to head out onto the lake and do a little fishing!

    Those red boats really do look like they can't wait to get out onto the water and race around!

    Getting the boating season under way must be a sure sign that Spring has arrived to stay. I like the reflections, especially those of the gate on the left side of the photo.

    heheheh,

    You made it as though you got a "vertical" reflection. The boats are so alike.

    Great job.

    Vivid contrast of colors are exquisite! Especially red ships and the sea are synergistic. I love the color of hazy puplish forests too.
    Have a great weekend.

    2 X 2 red boats on the beautiful blue sea....for what more could a photographer ask? This is super. A real serene and romantic shot.
