An early morning walk down a trail at Moffat Bay Park on St. Joseph Island, located roughly 10 km southeast of Hilton Beach, ON.
I had to appear in this photo myself, as there was no one else in the park at 8 AM. I grabbed a red jacket and a walking stick to add a bit of character, set the camera up on a tripod with a 10 second delay, released the shutter and then ran as fast as I could to be in position for the shot. Of course, I'd catch myself out of position in the frame, or with my leg at an odd angle, etc., so I had to repeat this process a total of 9 times before I was happy with the result - so it wasn't quite the relaxing stroll that it appears to be.

I'll remove it if you wish
I applaud your dedication to get the shot.
Haha I love your description. I like it when the artist gives a description like that because it lets everyone else know that they aren't the only ones that have to set up the camera and dash into place just before the delay runs out, haha.
Nine times is a charm I reckon, hehe. Great photo.
