Water Power

The water is running pretty fast right now, so I went out to try to capture it. The problem is finding a decent and available spot. I went to the old railway bridge and shot upriver facing downtown. The light was pretty good even if I would have preferred some clouds in the sky.



Like many older towns Carleton Place was built around mills that took advantage of water power.

For the next shot I swung the camera tot he left and caught a bit of townhall.



It was fun to get out again. It was a long winter.

  1. My town was built on water power, too. First the mills, then the Erie Canal. We here are so aware of the power of the river.

  4. I always enjoy your images! Sometime if you care to, I would like to hear about your preferred equipment. I get kind of "geeked" talking about cameras. I ma not a good photographer like you, but I am trying to get a better eye for seeing what I can capture better. It is challenging for me to get a feel for seeing something artistically. I am so used to capturing clinically/biologically academic images, that it is a struggle to find and then capture "art" in my images.
