Another Good Year

2016 was another good year for me on RedBubble. I had a total of 93 images receive a combined total of 228 features. So I thought I'd take the time today to post my five most featured images on RedBubble in 2016.

My most featured image in 2016 on RedBubble with fourteen features was this image of the iconic Canadian tour boat, Maid of the Mist, at the base of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

Coming in at fourth place with seven features is this digital painting of Autumn along Lake Ontario at Glenora, Prince Edward County, Ontario

Fifth place actually has a tie as both images also have seven features each. The first is a digital painting created from an original photo taken looking west along Ste Catherine street at McGill College avenue – Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

The final entry here is an image of a miniature rose photographed at the Montreal Botanical Gardens, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. If Yellow means Friendship, and Red means Love, a red tinged yellow rose must mean ‘More than Friends’.

Babcock Mill
Babcock Mill, Odessa, Loyalist Township, Ontario, Canada


The Babcock Mill is built on land deeded by the British Government to Joshua Booth in 1803 as part of his eight Crown Deeds. The stone structure was built in 1856, by the Saul Brothers, for John K. and Philip D. Booth, sons of Benjamin Booth, of Odessa. The Mill was originally intended to be a Flour Mill but the grain grinding equipment was never installed. The opening of the Grand Trunk Railway, in 1856, allowed cheap flour to be shipped from mills in Toronto and Montreal causing small local mills to be unprofitable. The Mill was used for box making, an office and sales room, and for wool storage, as part of the Booth Woolen Mills on this site. In 1907 this mill, and the Sawmill next to it was purchased by John Herbert “Cap” Babcock from the Booth family. Cap installed the present equipment and operated the mill, planing lumber, doing custom mill work, and manufacturing his patented “Babcock” baskets. Following Cap’s death in 1946, his son Roy Babcock continued to operate the mill, entering into a partnership with his brother Oscar. They manufactured truck bodies until the late 1960s when the partnership dissolved and J. H. Babcock & Sons Limited moved to Toronto. In 1977, Roy Babcock sold the mill and 13 acres of land to the Township of Ernestown, now Loyalist Township, the current owner of the mill. In 1986, the Township contracted Don Babcock (grandson of J. H. Babcock) to reconstruct and repair the original basket making machinery. Since then The Mill has undergone extensive renovations and is now fully restored to its original working condition.
