A heavy frost and lazy wind (you know, the wind that goes through you instead of around you) on this Earth Day morning.
My photo partner (who happens to be my best friend and wife) and I had another great time photographing pre-dawn from Willisville Mountain in La Cloche.
April 8, 2017 and our first morning up the side of Willisville Mountain this year. Five a.m. felt earlier and the vantage points higher than last year for some reason. What will tomorrow bring?

Jon & Kerry Butler are curating a historical photographic exhibit of the La Cloche area which will be exhibited at The Art Gallery of Sudbury in 2018. It may then tour other galleries.
If you have or know of anyone with photos from this era please contact us at lacloche(at)gmail.com for additional information. High quality jpegs can be emailed with a photo description.
The exhibit will include actual and reproductions of photographs from 1900 to 1950 with descriptions and credits.
Thanks to Dawn Smyth Hicks for photographs and descriptions from the very early days of Willisville. Ada and Ernie Willis were Dawn’s grandparents.
This photograph is of Ada and Ernie Willis with Dawn’s mother Kathleen in the canoe at Willisville – 1919.
During the winter months my wife, Kerry, and I are not in La Cloche but we continue to practice, study and learn more about art and photography.
For the second year in a row I have been invited to participate in this wonderful exhibition in Richards Landing on St. Joseph Island.
If you are in the area – please drop in.
