Ontario is filled with an abundance of amazing places, natural wonders, fantastic architecture, unique landscapes, waterfalls, abandoned structures to explore, and so much more. We are a husband-and-wife photography team who dedicates our time to finding and photographing these locations in Ontario as well as selling and displaying our photography online, and now we are making these stimulating locations available to you by way of eBooks. This, our first collaborative publication, is crammed full of information to guide you to these photo-worthy locations with GPS coordinates, site details, helpful camera tips and techniques and hundreds of spectacular photographs. So you have your camera gear all ready to go, and you're craving some fun photographic adventure...but you have no idea where you're going? Over the years we have visited, photographed, and compiled a master list of great Ontario locations and entered them into an eBook format. We're now making our master list available to you. We've done all the research to make your decision-making much easier. Our Reference Guide is sorted by photographic genres, then by the Ontario Region code, then City, and finally the feature (site location). Visit a unique garden that has a Greek Theatre stage, or a grand entranceway constructed of brick and terrcotta preserved in time, or an "olde style" log cabin that was constructed in 1795, or statues and unusual monuments within a forest setting in the heart of the GTA. Encounter famous landmarks, monuments and historical sites. Discover new places where you never thought photography would have been possible. Find out where the best locations are for photographing fall colours, cherry blossoms, and the Toronto skyline. Take a stroll in Ontario's own badlands that will make you feel like you're on another world. Drive through the largest wind project in Canada with a staggering 133 wind turbines. Find out where you can view famous shipwrecks (without diving), see historical lightstations, and glacial potholes. Sit on the edge of a cliff that has no support underneath: it's just you, the overhang...and a whole lotta nothin' beneath you. Then climb down the rabbit hole underneath the cliff and explore even more. Walk on the largest fresh-water sand bar and dunes in the country. Photograph landscapes a lot like what may have inspired famous painters like Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven. Explore ancient ruins, historical grist and saw mills, and even a mill that is still in operation today. Ontario is home to a mysterious harbour shipwreck, a big canoe capable of carring 368 passengers and 240 vehicles, waterfalls abundant with crinoids, brachiopods, and trilobites (fossils), the largest Inuksuk in the world, sacred Ojibwe pictographs, a famous Goose, Gitchee Goomees, and even a Sleeping Giant.
