This week the challenge theme is “On The Water”, Beth introduces the Lens-Artists Challenge that is bringing #151 back to life! Be sure to check out her blog post and beautiful images – she also has a link to her original post #151 as well!
From Beth at Wandering Dawgs: “For this challenge, I look forward to seeing your interpretation of “On the Water”. The water can be rivers, creeks, lakes, ponds, oceans, puddles, swimming pools or water parks. Think about scenic views of water, people having fun on the water, watercraft on the water, macros of water drops, or animals, birds, and plants floating on the water.“
Some of my favourite images are birds on the water! Especially when they have babies! These were captured at Sulfur Springs Conservation Area just outside of Hanover.
Baby Ducks feasting on the bugs!
I love how cute and fluffy they are!
This is where I saw the geese and ducks swimming around. I just love the reflection on the water.
This beauty was captured down at Murphy Park on the Saugeen River in Mount Forest.

On the water, In the water, potato, poataoe… hahaha Last spring we went off roading at our family cottage and this was our son, he went just a little bit too far. Very grateful for winches and that we bring up the rear ;)
Rinsing off some of the machines. They are SO fun!
My favourite beach bay view! Our family cottage has been in the family since my grandparents bought it over 50 years ago!
Labs just love the water!

Sometimes the best view is the simplest over the water <3
It really is incredible how calm my heart and soul feels near water. Even if we can only get up to the cottage for an over night, less than 24 hours, I feel that cleansing recharge.

This isn’t how I thought I would lead this post today ‘on the water’, I was first envisioning my favourite landscape shots of beaches… these have even more memories of good times! I feel so lucky to have been able to photograph the birds I have local to me at home or at the family cottage. Last year we purchased a travel trailer, this year, we have booked some locations that we are so very excited for! Especially for the landscape, birds, nature, water etc!
Be sure to check back next Saturday as the Lens-Artists crew announces the next challenge theme. Thank you Beth for this inspiration, I am excited for Spring and Summer!

Pam, I am happy you turned around and ended up with these images. They are marvelous. I also love the baby ducks. They’re wonderful to watch around their moms.
