sleepy season for some …
Sean Jansen replied
Thank you so very much for your wonderful comment. Glad you enjoyed seeing this one. Yes sleepy season for some but just love the colors.

Lovely shot and hopefully the memory will get you through the cold winter. Thankfully we can paddle at any time of the year around here, which is just lovely.
Sean Jansen replied
Thank you so very kindly for your wonderful comment. Yes winter is here now….last week mid 90’s temps, this week freezing and snow brrrr. Your lucky to enjoy the water all year long. Many thanks again : )
Nira Dabush
FANTASTIC COMPOSITION & COLOUR USE, SEAN.
Just love this…
Perhaps the cool weather took the people away.
For some photos of landscape, surely the lack of people make the photo a “clean” one.
There’s a beauty in loneliness too.
Sean Jansen replied
Thank you so very much Nira for your lovely comment. Yes now that the weather is cool deffinately keeps people away. There is so much more one can appreciate when people are not around. Even a sense of solatude perfect for unwinding and just enjoying nature. A whole different world compared to when the park is busy. Many thanks again for favoriting this one. Glad I could share it with you : )

Ok first of all by the time I scrolled down to the end of this page to make a comment I could have made dinner, did the laundry, ran a few errands and taken a nap…....guess I am not your biggest fan. Looks like you’ve got a ‘fan’ club going on here :)))))
Hey but I love blue it’s my favorite colour and ‘boo’ the canoes do look lonely don’t they, HOWEVER, this is another one of your masterpieces – love the reflection of the blue canoes in the water ever so slightly rippling away & the trees in background!!!
Simply put: STUNNING…I’m favoring it :D
Sean Jansen replied
Thank you so very kindly for your awesome comment Ieneke : ) Got a laugh from all the things you could of done instead of scrolling hehe !!
