Couchiching Sky

On the eastern shores of Lake Couchiching is the community of Rama First Nation, my home. I have spent most of my life here on the "Rama Reserve" taking baby steps to reclaim my culture. The historical records says we settled here sometime after the Wendat left this region dispersed by the Iroquois. By my estimation we have been in this general area of Lake Couchiching and Lake Simcoe for 7 generations or more. Enough time for our people to establish a strong spiritual connection with the land,air and water. I spend a considerable time capturing the interconnection of these three elements and what it means to me. It is vastly important place for me. I call this set of pictures Couchiching Sky.
