October
Lake Ontario is especially alive as October nears an end and November comes calling. Early morning can be an exciting time to experience the beach first hand… this is such a morning… October 19, 2010 at 7:10 a.m. The low light and the heaviness of a passing storm on the horizon inspired a pin hole camera effect that suited my vision of this special morning… here by the big water.

Aamora member Jim Ford shares his motto: “Wandering is one of my passions…where it leads me is not as important as what I see along the way” Enjoy more of Jim’s work on his photostream or searching his other aamora contributions.
He tells us: “I have a BFA degree from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio with traditional printmaking as a major. I also have a MA degree from SUNY Oswego with a major in digital photography/photoshop and art history study in surrealism. I worked in custom color labs and communication companies when I was younger and have taken photographs for many, many years. I have also been employed by SUNY Oswego for the past twenty-five years doing the same and soon to retire. I explore, search, record and present images of my daily life in the fine art tradition. My creative universe is expanding and I welcome it with open arms.”
Vi ringrazio tanto. Siete molto gentile.@Manfredi Caracausi
Mi piace molto il tono del bianco e nero… un effetto molto sognante e dal retrogusto antico… sembra che il mare si estenda verso l’infinito, complimenti 🙂
Thank you Maria….nice of you to comment.@Maria
The lake can be calm one day and throwing a temper tantrum the next….a very interesting entity. Thank You.@Ronnie Ginnever

Thank You Much Dana!
Wonderful series, congratulations!
Many thanks John and Marie. My interest is always peaked when the lake acts up a bit.
Beautiful. I seldom get to see Lake Ontario in such a moody light. Love the pinhole effect.
