2nd Place - "Otter Couple" York River, second pond below high falls Photo taken this year in November. While staying at the Maynooth backpackers hostel I met two people from France and asked if they would join me on a hike to High falls on the York river. While at the second pond below High Falls a family of 3 otters were just as curious about me as I was of them. While looking through the lens all of a sudden they turned and stretched there knecks looking down river. The photo captures their character but also, I think, the gender difference between the couple. Andrew Dean - Waterloo

"Easy Rider" Campsite on the north shore of Laurel Lake nearby a creek, Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada While trying to photograph a group of loons passing by our campsite on an early morning in Algonquin Park, I was finally gave up and decided to head back to the campsite. Suddenly at my feet I noticed a tiny amphibian trying to make its way through the woods. The photograph perfectly captures the size of the creature that appeared to be very tired and exhausted. Ivan Petrov - Ottawa
"Elizabeth and Emily". This was my first live moose I had ever seen. I always name the animals I see and Elizabeth and Emily seemed fitting.

"Turtle x Two" Big Trout Lake These turtles found us before we found them. We had backed into some reeds for a light lunch in the canoe, when something hit the bottom of the canoe. Right under my feet! I got the camera ready then we moved the bow of the canoe a couple feet. We found these two turtles bobbing up and down. I still don't know what they were doing, whether it was mating or fighting or some other ritual. Very cool! Chrissie Sharp - Windsor

"A Hasteless Crawler" Campsite on the north shore of Laurel Lake nearby a creek, Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada Strolling by my tent one of the days during a canoeing trip in Algonquin Park I couldn't help but notice an uninvited stranger crawling hastelessly across the top of our tent.

"Moose on Tim River". Dad and I went out for a late evening paddle along the Tim River, in hopes to see some moose. We paddled around a bend and saw this guy wading in the water... Somewhere along the Tim River Steve Elms - Waterdown
"How to Photograph Fish" Waterclear Lake, Algonquin Park When you say "Algonquin Wildlife", some people may think moose; I think fish - specifically, trout. The easiest way to take a picture of a fish, is first, get it out of the water. This is my brother Steven. Scruffy as he is, he is not an outdoors guy, nor is he a fisherman. But, every year he trudges with me through lakes, and swamps, and creeks, and portages; through blizzards and blistering hot sunny days just to bask for a few days in Algonquin's silence. On this particular day on Waterclear Lake, I dragged Steve out fishing with me to a nearby honey hole I found stacked with big lakers. I knew this would be the day he converted to the religion of the "wet line". Three minutes into fishing, he hooked this bad boy. We snapped our shot and Steven has never missed a trip or left home without his fishin' rod since. Michael Zamin - Breslau

"A Long Drink" Hwy 69 near Canisbay Lake Campground We were on our way to the outdoor theatre and were lucky enough to spot this moose grazing off Hwy 60.

"Among the Flowers" Catfish Rapids Portage We were headed back from a day trip and were talking and laughing as we paddled up to the portage. As we came around the bend I spotted this cow up to her neck in the water. I was trying to get my partners attention without making too much noise. We were able to just sit quietly and enjoy the view before we continued up to the portage. This was my first moose that I saw in the interior! Chrissie Sharp - Windsor
"One Step at a Time" Burntroot Lake I stayed on the south tip of the island on Burntroot Lake for three glorious days and spent lots of time exploring the shore line and the old Barnet Depot Farm. This was of of many mergansers along the way. I had been watching her fish for awhile before she decided to take a break. Chrissie Sharp - Windsor
"Moose on the beach". After dinner we had a visitor to camp. On the beach to the east of us a moose came down for a drink and to munch on some plants growing near the shore. We spent about half an hour taking pictures and got closer than we thought we would be able to. He was aware of us but basically unconcerned. We finally went to play some cards and he was still there. He laid down on the beach to rest and we thought that he was there for the night. As it got darker we could still see him there, but one time we looked over and he was gone. What a great experience that was! Welcome Lake, Algonquin Park. Tom Yates - Sarnia
"Pop goes an Otter" Mizzy Lake Trail near Wolf Howl Pond I love otters and am always on the lookout for them. I love their curiousity and their playfulness. This otter was skimming the shoreline along Mizzy Trail, one of my favourites. He kept popping up and then going back down. He stayed beside us on the trail until we reached the beaver dam at the bridge. Chrissie Sharp - Windsor

"Recollections of Summer" Campsite on the north shore of Laurel Lake nearby a creek, Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada After a day of paddling on Laurel Lake and Little Cauchon Lake we came back to rest to the same campsite we stayed at the night before. We got caught in the rain on our way back, so once we came ashore we took cover under our tarp. Suddenly the clouds disappeared and the sun came out. It wasn't long before a butterfly landed on the top of our blue tarp. I was standing underneath it and took the photograph from under the tarp, projecting the butterfly's silhouette against the sun. The photo always brings back warm memories of the summer whenever I think of it. Ivan Petrov - Ottawa
"Osprey With Lunch". I was standing on the dock at our cottage on Oxtongue Lake when I saw the Osprey try to land in a tree.

"A Last Minute Visitor" Stratton Lake We had just packed up the canoes to continue our journey on our trip to the Barron River. My dad was the only one still facing the campsite and said "Where is your camera?".

"Snailing along..." Campsite at Kingscote Lake. My boyfriend and I were staying on Kingscote lake for the Canada Day long weekend. This picture was taken at our campsite after our very long day trip to the Scorch Lake look out.

Wolf Rendevous We were awoken the night before to wolf howls on the lake. Early the next morning was very foggy as we packed up camp; we heard the wolves start howling again. They were howling from two different distinct locations almost as if they were trying to locate each other. As we were canoeing towards the Galipo River, we noticed animals walking along the beachy shore. Six in total. Our encounter lasted close to fifteen minutes and we were able to get within fifty yards of the wolves because the wind was in our favour and the sun was in their eyes. This experience was the icing on the cake to our best interior trip yet. Welcome Lake (entering Galipo River to Harry Lake) Jamie MacDonald - London
"Wolf Rendevous Welcome Lake" Welcome Lake, entering Galipo River Our wolf pack encounter on Welcome Lake, where it enters the Galipo River. We saw six wolves in total.

A week before our trip, we had even received a phone call from the park staff advising us to cancel our reservations since they weren’t expecting for the ice to be gone. Winter wouldn’t let go! We had been reading the Canoe Lake Ice Out webpage religiously. (http://www.canoelake.ca/iceout/predictions-for-2008.html).Kyle and I had even both submitted our predictions to the website. Mine being April 25th , which had been our day of arrival and the date of the actual ice out on Canoe Lake! We had put in at Rock lake to make our way to Pen Lake.
