BURLINGTON, ON
The phrase is usually a “picture is worth a thousand words”. This picture needs a few words.
John currently lives in Kitchener but did reside in Bronte previously.
He has been an avid photographer and is a member of the Latow Photographers Guild, a member Guild of the Art Gallery of Burlington (AGB), for many years.
He adds: “I recently developed an interest in astrophotography and try to get out to take photos of the moon when conditions will allow.
Previous attempts to see the moon rise behind the Burlington Pier were not successful due to either fog or cloud cover.
Using an App called “PhotoPills” I determined the timing and directionality of moonrise at this location. I took more than 100 images last evening but this was my favorite as it has a human element.
Larsen used a Canon 7D Mark 2 using a Tamron 150-600mm zoom lens mounted on a tripod.

Not to take anything away from this artistic photographer, but there is a Facebook page, Burlington Together, in which several local amateur and professional photographers post photos taken along the Burlington lakeshore, in nature and in parks that are at times stunningly beautiful and bring true inspiration to me. Please take a look. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular!
Beautiful shot
