Rouge Beach Trail 胭脂河灘徒步徑

【Ontario Yours to Discover】 《Rouge Beach Trail》: The northern coast of the Ontario Lake has cities built along the waterfront creating a very attractive lakescape and natural scenery that made these places popular and good for sight-seeing and photography. Durham West Waterfront Trail starts from Pickering east of Toronto, stretching along the waterfront all to Whitby, Oshawa, Clarington, Port Hope and further beyond the east.

Tamron 500mm Reflex Lens 騰龍500mm反射鏡頭

I bought a used Tamron 500mm f/8 mirror reflex lens last year. This kind of mirror reflective lens was produced in the 70s when I was learning film photography. It was created for photographer shooting with a longer focal length but in a compact size and light weight. However, this kind of reflective lens dropped out in favor in the 90s.

Three Birds on Stakes 木中無人三隻鳥

【Ontario Yours to Discover】That day we went to Pickering in Toronto to take sunset photographs. This day, my photo buddy, John and I wished to continue outdoor photography. We went to Pickering again but this time we followed the map to a nearby creek near the marinas in a lakeside park. The location was facing the dam and the distant lighthouse. We wanted to practice slow shutter shooting but upon arrival, we were surprised to find many flying birds.

Sunset Pickering 日落碧谷寧

【Ontario Yours to Discover】 Toronto has charming evening, but to shoot the beautiful sunset at dusk, we have to invest a little thought to find a suitable location good for photography. Perhaps we can go to the lakeshore downtown. The Toronto lake has a long shoreline which stretches eastward with many sunset attractions. That day, Derek, John and I, the Photo Trio went to Pickering, about 20km east of Toronto to take some sunset photographs.
