Originally from Northern England, Alan Norsworthy has been a photographer since the late 1960's.

He moved to Canada in 1973 and has made Guelph Ontario his home for the last 24 years.

" I remember visiting the CN Tower in the early 70's and the guide said that as far as you could see in any direction is the best farmland in Canada. That comment echoes down the years as I watch subdivisions eat up the landscape."

The area around Guelph offers up a plethora of rural images which Alan captures with his artistic vision. His work covers everything from macro photographs of flowers, sweeping landscapes, historic buildings and old abandoned farms in both colour and Black and White.

"This is where I find my inspiration, I have a need to show people the beauty I see as I walk the woods and fields of Southern Ontario"

It's been a while ..


 









 For sometime now i have been considering reviving my blog.

A great deal has happened since I last posted in ..2016? 

I retired from my business, sold the house and made a new life in Nova Scotia with my 'new' partner Karen.

We live in a rural area that is surrounded by natural beauty in the small artistic town of Parrsboro.

So come along for a journey as we explore our new world, our new life here in paradise :-)


Once again the pine-tree sung:—

'Speak not thy speech my boughs among;

Put off thy years, wash in the breeze;

My hours are peaceful centuries...'

~Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Woodnotes, II"
