There is nothing like a Georgian Bay sunset. Dad took us out on a beautiful August evening for a cruise around Gereaux Island Lighthouse. What makes the water look like a mirror? Why do sunsets feel so much like coming home?

Every summer I indulge in Georgian Bay photography. I often post my photos on Twitter and Instagram too!

The Sunset is a Teacher

every evening

watch the sunset

in a boat if possible

swaying in the shining water

listen closely, our ancestors join us

notice the pulse of Mother Earth’s

lullaby of colour marked across the sky

pause to feel the call of the loon

soften in a moment of stillness

as the sun exhales a good day

in a ballet of light
