Duncan Rawlinson photographed this aerial view of Chimney Island, a small private island in the 1000 Islands region of Ontario, Canada. The rocky landmass is crowned with conifers and a single residence, its pale granite shoreline clearly visible beneath gradient waters that shift from teal to deep blue. A dock extends from the western edge, while a navigation marker appears in the upper distance, punctuating the open water. The shallow shoals surrounding the island appear in lighter hues, mapping the underwater topography. This overhead perspective reveals the characteristic Canadian Shield bedrock that defines the archipelago, where thousands of similar islands dot the St. Lawrence River corridor.
