[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Once upon a time, way back in Lower Canada in the years 1650, lumber jacks, wood hunters and first inhabitant of the settlement used to lived in similar log cabins. Such log cabins were still in use till 1930 in upper lands located north west of Quebec city.

Imagine yourself spending most part of your life in such a place with a family of 10 or more…

On retrouvera cette cabane en bois rond sur les bords de la route 367 Nord, dans un village maintenant disparu nommé alors Allen Mills. Son utilisation récente nous porte à croire qu’elle était utilisée par des travailleurs forestiers.

However two elements of modern life remains on the picture can you find them : answer in the workshop.

Mais Oh idiosyncrasie! Deux éléments de la vie moderne apparaîssant sur la photo viennent remettre en question l’effet rustique. La solution se trouve dans l’atelier alors que la photo originale est reproduite.

Hi Forest,
Basically a well composed shot of this old cabin. Good balance and perspective. The fall colours enhance and the cabin is seen as neatly nestled into the foliage. I would have cropped more of the foreground however to accent the cabin and perhaps brighten the scene and add a little contrast. I will try a Work Shop if you don't mind. You did a great job of eliminating the unwanted debris in your own WS. Good capture.
John

Trés belle photo, bien balancée et superbe pour la description aussi.

[ Very nice picture, well balanced and very good description too ]

J'ai fait une correction rapide (je ne suis PAS encore passé maître dans ce domaine!) sur cette photo.

[ I've made some workshop on this one but i didn't masterized this art yet ]

J'y ai entre-autre retiré la trace laissé par l'avion dans le ciel de même que le tube jaune en plastique en avant plan a droite (le plastique recouvrant la mise à la masse pour le poteau électrique) ainsi qu'une partie de ce fil que l'on voyait encore.

[ I've removed the trace left by the aircraft and also removed the yellow plastic tube that cover the ground wire and the remainings of the ground wire that were left a the lower right of the picture ]

Bonjour Jean-Pierre,

Un beau paysage de cette région du Québec, la photo a une bonne composition, POV et de belles couleurs.

Pierre
