A lake at Gatineau Park with the afternoon light playing on its water. The photograph is showing the afternoon light penetrating and reflecting on the water’s surface. The water is so clear and smooth. Rocks at the bottom of the lake are visible to the naked eye. Low-lying clouds are reflecting on the water’s smooth surface.
We ended up exploring and enjoying the surrounding areas of Gatineau after spending a day in Ottawa. The forest, trees, trails, and lake of Gatineau Park was in contrast to the urban areas of Ottawa.

Lovely capture. Gatineau Park looks like a great place to connect with nature even though it’s still close to the city. Another place we have yet to visit.
Wow! I’m happy to be showing you places that you can visit. Have fun at the park. We did a short hike to the ruins. I can’t remember which one but it was an easy hike.
