Another rendition of a photo from the McLaughlin horse ranch I visited the other day.

Seeing that I haven’t posted a new entry in a while, I’ve got a bunch of photos lined up that should satisfy your palette in the next few days so stay tuned!

Above you can see the first which is an HDR photo comprised of 4 exposures. The story behind this photo is that I was driving through Caledon trying to find a good spot to stop at the side of the road and shoot the sunset. I happened upon, what I thought to be, a small side road which actually happened to be someone’s extended driveway! So I turned onto the “driveway” and stopped to the side hoping I don’t get in anyone’s way. Low and behold as soon as I stop to get out of my car, I see in my mirror an SUV indicating to come onto the road. You’ve got to be kidding me. Of all roads! So since I couldn’t turn the car around on the one lane “driveway” I proceeded to drive down the road and that’s when I found out it was a driveway. The road led me to a sizable ranch with horses and all. I noticed the SUV following me down the driveway and when I reached the house residing there I got out of my car.

This looks pretty bad. They might think I’m some spy or something, but those muscular horses look so photogenic and would be perfect in this sunset!

So immediately I greeted the driver of the SUV and told her my purpose for being there. I proceeded to politely ask if I could take some photos of her horses but she was going to put them in the barn for the night since the sun was setting.

I should have asked if I could photograph her doing just that, but my wits weren’t there at the time to think of asking such a thing. I’ll definitely visit again and see if I can capture those horses in a frame.

She agreed to let me take some photos of the sunset using her property as the foreground and the photo above is the result of this little story. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

A photo from my trip to the Scarborough Bluffs. It was cold, damp, and windy, but the peacefulness of the location was refreshing, compared to the hustle of the malls and the shopping.
