Young Fisherman |
We took our walk by the Okanagan River at OK Falls yesterday on a perfect summer's day. We discovered lots of Canada Geese, a sea of Baby's Breath, many fish in the river, and not a few fishermen. Why don't girls fish? There was a strange absence of wind and clouds. We met a very young German Shepherd on the bridge, He and his proud owners allowed us to take his portrait. Hanne insisted on taking mine too. We saw a sandpiper, a kingbird, and heard yellow warblers and peewits....

The temperature hovered around 25 Celsius, but reached 32 by 4p.m. That is why we walk in the morning!

Nice one of you taking cover behind the sea of Baby's Breath, Michael. The GSD is beautiful...such deep, soulful eyes. The girls were probably enjoying some quiet 'girl time' at home...before the fishermen returned to ask them to cook their catch of the day ;)
You truly are making the most of your lovely, sunshiny days!
I see wind on the water!!!
Sorry to disappoint you Des, but the river current is really fast and produces its own waves! We were talking to the dog's owners and he sat down in their shade for his portrait!
Oh how I would love to have these temperatures in Germany, I miss the sun. Lovely photos as always!
Sounds hot for walking. I don't blame you for setting out early - bet you come back and have a nap then... As to the blue fence, yes, I should have straightened it up - it's called perspective! But I had a quick go at it and it seemed like I was losing too much of the rest of the photo so I didn't bother.
Walking by water is a firm favourite with me!
