I really needed that walk in the woods, even if you can hear a super highway in the background. Camera: Olympus OM-2n, Zuiko lenses. Film: Ultrafine Extreme 400, HC110 B.

Gone for a Hike In Bronte Provincial Park Part One

Image
Ontario Provincial Parks reopened a few weeks ago and I got an opportunity to go for a day hike inside Bronte Creek Provincial Park, sandwiched between Oakville and Burlingtion Ontario it's a short drive from home. I needed a dose of nature bad yet didn't feel comfortable driving up to Forks of the Credit or Mono Cliffs as tempting as that would have been. I delibrately visited mid week so I could stay away from the crowds that would invetabliy show up on a nice day on the weekend. Bronte Creek is former farmland stretching from the QEW up to about three quarters of the way up to Highway 5/Dundas. The trails are ok but with the drone of the highway constantly in the background, you really don't get away from it all. What Bronte Creek does have is a farm on it, with livestock, which gives you somehing to photograph along with meadows, forest and a river valley. Camera: Olympus OM-2n, Zuiko lenses.
