Credit River Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Credit River is a river in southern Ontario which flows from headwaters above the Niagara Escarpment to empty into Lake Ontario at Port Credit, Mississauga. It drains an area of approximately 1,000 km². The total length of the river and its tributary streams is over 1,500 km.The river was named Rivière au Crédit by French fur traders, because trading goods were supplied to the native Mississaugas in advance (on credit) against furs which would be provided the following spring. A trading post was set up at the mouth of the river, in Port Credit, in the early 18th century.
This photo was taken early morning in Saddington Park.

Hi Ziggy
A very nice blue hour shot with the tree acting as a frame for the river.

Hi ziggy

Good reflections, with the fg tree providing depth, framing, & layering. Excellent colour & sharpness. Tfs!

Hi Ziggy,
The illumiated tree in the foreground makes this view worth viewing. Nice background too, but the foreground makes the picture!
Kind regards
Gunnar

Hello Ziggy,
astonishing perspective with this point of view. It's really impressive to see this marina from the tree in the foreground running down until the city. A beautiful capture with a great light and an amazing sky at down. Very well done !
All the best.

Bonjour Ziggy,
voilà une idée interssante que de capturer des lumières discrètes sur cet arbre à l'avant plan, cet arbre qui d'ailleurs participe à la bonne profondeur de la scène aux couleurs très séduisantes.
Regards.
Daniel.
