Remic Rapids
A year ago, I stumbled upon this magical place, by the Ottawa River, where John Ceprano is working on the art of balance. Last year’s work has probably been dismantled naturally during the winter, but the sculptures currently on display just blew my mind. They are taller, bigger, and there are dozens of them.
The weather was gorgeous, with blue sky and big fluffy white clouds looming over the river. The river was so peaceful I caught a few perfect mirror reflections.
I spent an hour there, admiring both the sculptures and the patience needed to perfectly balance all the rocks. The sculptures are so still there were even spider webs spun between them!
You can see the whole Ottawa Summer set here.

Goodness, I was watching a documentary just the other day on a guy who did rock balancing like this. I am wondering if it was the same guy. That is what gave me the idea for the theme. How amazing that you interpreted it in exactly the same way as I had in mind!!! Great minds, eh? lol! I love the pics you have here. You have captured the art in its full glory. Love the textures, the colours, the forms and the challenge of nature. I especially like the pic of you poking your head out from behind the artwork!!! Brilliant, and it is so lovely to have you on board the photochallenge!!! Hope you are well and having fun x
