Description
Lake Ontario is currently seeing the highest water levels since record keeping began in 1918. The lake currently sits at 75.89 meters which broke the previous record set in 1952 of 75.82 meters, the current water level is 84cm above the average.

I decided to take advantage of these unique conditions and create a few once in a lifetime photos. The water shown in this photo is not static, it is the result of onshore winds combined with high lake levels that temporarily flood the park, once the wind subsides this flooded area will be gone within a few hours.
