My most important photograph so far

A blast from my past.

When I was 11 years old, newly returned from Rhodesia to Canada, my family took a camping vacation from Thunder Bay, ON all the way to Vancouver Island, BC on the West coast, a long journey and a spectaular holiday.
There, I was given the opportunity to shoot a roll of film on a Kodak Instamatic camera of my parents'. The rest is certainly history. I'm not sure if that particular 126 roll of film still exists somewhere in Canada, but this is the only surviving frame from it that I'm aware of. 2 prints were made: a 4x4" and a framed 16x20" in my parents' house. I recently scanned the small print here in Georgia at 2400 dpi and cleaned it up; here is a copy of it full-frame, my earliest photograph, thus priceless to me.

Stream, Victoria, BC, Canada, September 2006

A diversion from Georgia for a bit.

Details of a small stream in a park, near where I was staying with an old friend for a few days, en route to Zimbabwe. The colours reflected in the water were what interested me the most, as well as playing with slower shutter speeds to attempt to blur the water as it flowed.
