Driving to Bancroft this summer I came across this deer standing along the side of the road. First saw it as it dodged a truck. It did not seem concerned when I got out of the car and started photographing.

Last weekend thousands of people were entertained by the annual street performers at the 24th Kingston Buskers Rendezvous. More then 20 performers took to the streets and Springer Market Square entertaining the crowd with everything from juggling to aerobatic performances and more. Here are a few photos from the Saturday evening's performances.

Puppet Tamer of Cambridge has some fun entertaining a crowd of about 200 Saturday evening in front of City Hall. This was one of my favourite acts as it was very entertaining and captivating.

The ebony jewelwing is found along wooded rivers and it is a broad-winged damselfly. This particular one was up at Warsaw Caves Conservation Area near Peterborough. Along the trails at the conservation area there is a location called the Ebony Jewelwing pond and they are always flying around.

Bath Canada Day Fireworks
By Corey Lablans

Fireworks are always fascinating to photograph. When photographing lightning it is easy to capture the beautiful colours but to capture the scenery is what makes it fascinating and difficult. As you can see by these photos, the scenery isn't really that present, so I didn't do that excellent of a job.

I have been able to get some very nice firework photos in the past. Last year working for The Kingston Whig-Standard I needed to photograph in Kingston, do to the rush for filling afterwards but I enjoy the Bath Canada Day fireworks.
