Paddling sounds in a tranquil lake 槳聲劃破萬籟湖

On 28 June 2012, I drove along Highway 400 from Toronto and went northbound 160km to Port McNicoll. The Calvert Park is adjacent to the lake shore with dense of green plant on the shore. A small broken deck is still in the waters and looks like the one at Nam Sang Wai in Yune Long, Hong Kong.
An angler paddled by the water plants and the paddling broke the tranquility of the lake.

Photo equipment:
Nikon D200, Nikkor AF18-200mm f/3.5-5.6, Nikon GP-1 GPS

2012年6月28日,從多倫多沿400號公路驅車北上160公里的Port McNicoll。在Calvert Park 水濱喜見水草芊芊,沿岸伸延。當中木板搭成的小渡頭,連岸的一端已破爛,剩下小小的一段仍屹立水中。看似香港元朗南生圍的橫水渡小碼頭。釣魚郎泛舟垂釣。正是:孤舟穿過芊草叢,槳聲劃破萬籟湖。

  1. Your another masterpieces have been viewed. I just feel that you are a poet using very elegant Chinese to describe what you shot.

  4. Yes, it is one shot. I waited till the bird entered into the centre of the scene and fired the shutter. The original photo was cropped to this size to enhance the panoramic effect.
