Elliot Lake, ON

The winds have shifted and the first few flurries of snow arrived in Elliot Lake last week.  The intense heat of the summer sun has retreated to a gentle warmth that struggles against the faintest breeze.

Nights are cold now. The heat of the day leaking out into space and not replaced.

Winter is definitely in the air.  A dark and quiet calm has descended onto the landscape and you can hear the sound of the wind in open trees.
