December 10 - Being There
One September I was in Algonquin Provincial Park to photograph fall colours.
The previous day I had chosen my morning location, which I believed had good potential. So at sunrise I was on the shore of Lake of Two Rivers. The sun's rays were filtering through the early morning fog, creating a magical moment. Here I thought that I had an excellent dramatic image.
Then from my left emerged a red canoe. As the canoeist rounded the end of the island, I was able to make this photograph.

The canoeist paddling through the rising fog made the image much more iconic. Another lucky moment!
As the Roman philosopher Seneca said, "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."
