I’m still working on Nova Scotia photos…hoping to come up with 12 that are calendar-worthy. Not that I don’t think I can find 12, I just don’t want to find the perfect one after it’s too late!
Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia is a real tourist destination, and for good reason. It’s a beautiful location, has a little history, it’s got a lighthouse, a bunch of boats and a quaint little harbor. The day we were there is was relatively uncrowded and the weather was beautiful. And even in the middle of the day, the light was fantastic.
The biggest challenge for me in photographing a place like this is deciding whether I want people in my shots or not. I like people just fine, but I don’t always want to include them in my photos of a quintessential maritime fishing village! Sometimes I just need to be patient, and other times I just need to accept that there will be people! 🙂
Another thing that works well is to photograph someplace that people are less likely to be, like the edge of a dock. Most people don’t like to spend time in the water in places like this.
And they don’t let people climb the lighthouse, inside or out.
Nobody cares about old boats laying in a field.
I had to wait on this one.
And another one from where the people don’t go.
Tom, I wouldn’t think you’d have a problem finding 12 photos calendar worthy to the rest of us…but perhaps 12 that pass you own high standards might be at issue. 😉
Great photos!
Well thanks, Earl. I don’t know about standards, but I do work pretty hard to come up with 12 photos that I feel people will want to look at for an entire month! 🙂
Wow,! Blue is the predominate color in all but one of these images. I like blue, by the way. And, I would expect you to find those 12 images you need.
We definitely saw a lot of blue sky, Monte. We were very fortunate to have excellent weather. Blue sky and blue water are my favorite shades of blue!
