Description
With only the occasional lingering patches of melting snow, this hibernating Southern Ontario farm is slowly warming up to spring. The Mourning Doves have returned to the barn and Robins are staking out their territory. A "V" of Tundra Swans flew high overhead this morning noisily announcing their return although they were only half way to their destination.This is one of my earliest watercolor paintings. Because my photo of this image was taken many years ago with an ordinary camera and the painting was sold before I could retake the photo with new digital technology, I applied some digital enhancement techniques to a re-shoot of the first paper photo to be able to offer this image as a print.
