Have you ever noticed that young people take amazing photos? Well, the “Tuesdays on the Pond” kids proved this once again on our photo day, May 18. We hiked together through the woodlands, the savannah and down to Grenadier Pond, taking pictures along the way. We tried to use unexpected angles and interesting lighting in order to show the natural wonders surrounding us. We saw trilliums, birds, trees, feathers and lots more. Take a look at just some of these inspired photos taken by the Tuesdays on the Pond kids. Then take your camera down to Grenadier Pond and capture some nature moments of your own! And have fun! As Ambrose Bierce says a photograph is “a picture painted by the sun without instruction in art.”

Photo by Scotia. We found a sizeable patch of white trilliums. Notice the 3 petals and three leaves?
