2014 Week 10 Photos

2014 Week 10 Photos

By Corey Lablans Photography

(40th Week Photographing) 

The Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada Conference in Toronto was the most exciting thing this week. It was fun, enjoyed the student luncheon and talked to various geologists with the Ontario Geological Survey. The remaining photos this week were nothing special, whatever I came across.

Sometimes the most exciting photos are unplanned such as the snowy owl. I hadn’t taken a photo for the day, so I wanted to go for a walk. Driving over the Lemoine Point Conservation Area the snowy was flying in the field. You never know what you’ll come across.
