Driftwood Sculpture
A while ago I posted a shot of a miniature stone henge made from tiny bits of driftwood created on a short stop off at Neys Provincial Park. Today's post is of another piece of driftwood art, this one was created by my daughter. I had to get right down to ground level to get the perspective right and I think that with my daughters' creative skills and my photographer's eye this makes a great shot.

Superior Reflection
Following on from yesterdays driftwood art on the beach at Neys Provincial Park here is another shot from the beach of a really cool reflection in a nice calm inlet . There was actually quite a strong breeze and the surface of the lake was fairly choppy so it was somewhat of a surprise that this small inlet was so calm. It really is a lovely spot.

Driftwood Art
On the long drive back along the North Shore of Lake Superior we stopped off at Neys Provincial Park. During the Second World War the park was used as a prisoner of war camp for German prisoners. They worked in the logging camps and after the war many returned to this part of Canada with their families. I can understand why because it is such a lovely spot.
There is a beautiful stretch of sandy beach with lots of driftwood washed up along the shoreline. Apparently you are not supposed to remove any of the wood as it is part of the ecosystem within the provincial park. So of course I didn't take any souvenirs but we did create our own mini artwork recreating Stonehenge with wood. I think we did rather a good job.
