"Every canoe trip is an adventure and for us, this pic represented the first steps on our most aggressive adventure to date. The markers represent the guidance so necessary in our waterways to keep us safe(less needed perhaps in our canoe). The bridge represents the 'easier' route between Kingston and Ottawa. Our little red bow is pointing the way towards what turned out to be huge personal accomplishment."

"I loved this shot because it was magical to get this close to the beaver - I find they are usually more elusive. What's more iconic than the beaver who's ancestors are the reason that most of ours came to Canada is the first place? The beaver as metaphor can easily be extended to include all new Canadians over the last 200 years who cherish its valued resources - abundant, clean water most of all. I also always love how things outside the water get reflected in it in interesting ways."
