Mont Tremblant Photo Tour Sept 28, 2012 Day Two
Photography at Park Omega, Montebello, Quebec

The weather was great todayand we were treated to some great wildlife photography in Park Omega.

We started the morning by doing a safari type photo shoot through the many different roads and landscapes within the park.  At every corner there was another photo opportunitiy.  The fall colours added to the sceenery.

Most of the day was spent Park Omega. After our safari we had lunch and then walked along the raised boardwalk trail for another opportunity to photograph Timber Wolves and the Black Bear.

We finished day with a hike along the trail nea Placiance water falls.  The falls and changing leaves made for great images.  Then back to our hotel for dinner and time to relax.

Tomorrow we travel about 80 km to Mont Tremblant, and spend the day exploring and photographing the colours of this part of Quebec.  

Enjoy this evening photos and good night from the Photo Trekkers in Montebello, Quebec.

Yup, looks like one of the earlier caged kids did get released to the wild in the last photo.
Cheers and enjoy the rest of the trip.
