> The Sentinel - Algonquin Provincial Park
In the summer of 2006 I canoed north on Canoe Lake. It was a gorgeous day with mild winds and enough cloud to prevent a severe case of sunburn. It appeared to me that this lone pine was standing watch for the island of rock that is its support and nourishment.

Look closely
 > The Loon is the quintessential bird of Canada's near north. It has a haunting cry that is most often heard echoing over the water of the tens of thousands of lakes that nestle in the smooth rocky curves of the Precambrian shield that makes up the majority of Ontario Canada.
 > Ancient Caledon

Earlier in the same flight mentioned in Autumn Glory we flew over a bank of ground fog. 

The sun was just over the horizon and deep gold in colour. 

Of course nothing in Caledon is ancient except the rocks but it felt like we were somewhere in Lost Horizon and an earlier time in England had emerged from the mist.

This is a rift in the Niagara Escarpment (a geologic feature left behind by the retreating glaciers about ten thousand years ago) It is somewhere north of Toronto Ontario Canada, probably Mono Cliffs in the Caledon area. 

This aerial photograph was taken from a single engine light plane about 30 minutes after the dawn of an October morning when the trees were at the height of their autumn color display. Our altitude was probably about 900 m.
