A bit ominous and so compelling – great shot. It seems to me that the skies are extraordinarily dramatic this fall, and I’ve really enjoyed watching them.
Windy skies and water go so well together. I like this shot – the benches add so well to the line of the pier or breakwater or whatever it is (looks like it is left over from a historical structure).
Thanks, ehpem. This is the pier at Webster (Where Life is Worth Living) Park. Usually there are folks fishing off of it but it was not a particularly nice day for fishing. I don’t know how old the pier is but it’s been there since I can remember. I will do some research (or is that your job?).
I remember the pier from other of your photos, some with people fishing. It looks a bit like it might have been the support for an industrial dock of some kind, but maybe it is just for fishing. I think you should call Lynn, the Webster Historian, it’s not long distance for you. And because it is one of my unpaid days off.
Ken, You’re behind a recent cold front and having some truer winter weather now I would guess. For me, this photo captures the energy of a transition…changes. Very nice.
Thanks, Earl. We had light snow on the ground this morning when I woke and I don’t think it’s going to get warm for a long time. And I still have yard work to do!
Thanks, Jimi. Yes, this is Lake Ontario and we have been fortunate to have these dramatic skies fairly regularly since the weather has been changing from warm to cold (32 degrees as I write).
It was cold here, too, 24 when I got up but overall, a nice day. Let me know if you will be fishing in this part of the lake, the Salmon is a popular fish around here.

There is no way a boat could dock at this pier since it is bounded by rocks all the way around. I know John, I should call.
Mmmm. Very broody moidy and a great composition.
?
Moody!
Oh, yes. Thanks, Sync!
My, I can feel the shift in weather that will, sometime soon, bring snow.
Thanks, Chris. We have had some light flurries but nothing substantial. Yet!

Keep warm up there!

Great shot Ken and I like it in black and white.
Thanks, Chantal. Trust me, this is much better than the color version.
Now that is dramatic scenery. My favourite kind to shoot.
Thanks, Cedric. I could see these forming from my house when I looked North and made a beeline to the Lake. It does impress me so.
Man, sure looks like a storm was brewing here, or at least a cold front and change of weather. When you see white caps… 😉
Wonderful image and nice processing, Ken. Is this Lake Ontario?
Thanks, Jimi. Yes, this is Lake Ontario and we have been fortunate to have these dramatic skies fairly regularly since the weather has been changing from warm to cold (32 degrees as I write).
We also had a cold wave blow through, dropping temps to a balmy 37 degrees today. Too quick of a transition. 🙂
I am hoping to get back to Lake Ontario this Spring for the Salmon run. It’s been several years since my last visit.
It was cold here, too, 24 when I got up but overall, a nice day. Let me know if you will be fishing in this part of the lake, the Salmon is a popular fish around here.
Looks like the storm comming this way now.. Nice photo.
