I have always been one to be a perfectionist and I am my own worst critic. This place in Nova Scotia is a place where I see the potential for some great photographs, but I was never able to make that happen. I couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve done The Cabot Trail in Cape Breton. It’s one of the most beautiful places in the province and if you haven’t been there, try to make time, you won’t regret it.

This scene at Corney Brook is one of those iconic Cape Breton shots but it alluded me for years. This particular place is several hours from our house and therefore, I always found myself there in the middle of the afternoon, shot it the best I could and I almost always got a crappy over-bright sky. This time I was there when there was enough clouds to make it interesting and not blow out the sky. I am so much more happy with this version.
