Publisher's Synopsis
My last publication of pictures was 500 pages long. I decided to split that book, Some of My Best, in half and publish two books under the new name of My Choicest Picks, to make the books less lengthy. Book 1 deals with the Niagara Peninsula, its towns, and its seasons of spring and autumn. Book 2 of My Choicest Picks deals with Fair Havens, a Christian campground, near Orillia, where we took our holidays at our trailer for almost 3 decades. I loved taking sunset and flower pictures there, although I also contributed people pictures and submitted them to Darryl Chapman, the senior photographer of the grounds, so he could make his weekly slideshow presentations for visitors. Both he and his wife, Glenda, have volunteered at Fair Havens for many years. By the way, I used the silhouette sunset picture of Darryl focusing on something with his telephoto lens, as the book cover for Book 2.
For Book 2, I consciously balanced my people photos in the first half and put my sunset, flower and landscape photos in the second half. If people get a copy of My Choicest Picks Book 2, I'm sure they want to see people in it first and not the landscapes and pretty flowers!
