Photo of the Week #201

This photo was made awhile back, 8 years ago in fact. I’ve always loved this image because it depicts a slice of maritime history. This old shack resided beside the road leading from Tantallon to Peggy’s Cove, can’t remember what that road is called, been awhile. This wonderful piece of fishing heritage is now gone, if you didn’t know where it once stood, you would never know it ever existed.

This is another of my re-edits using some more modern technologies for editing that I now have available to me. Lightroom has come a long way in that time! The new masking tools in Lightroom are a life changer for me, love the versatility we have now.

Years In The Making

I’ve found myself frustrated many times because I was in an amazing location at the worst possible time of the day. To get good travel shots, you would like a nice light, yet we don’t necessarily have the time to wait. This location looks best late day light, in the morning it’s in shade. For me, that meant a lot of driving as our house was about 2 1/2 hours from here. This time round, according to the metadata, it was around 4:30pm (I usually forget to set the time when I go into a different time zone so who knows?). This day, everything seemed to align for me and I got this.

Photo of the Week #196

Time really does fly. Remember when your parents, maybe grandparents joked around about it……..it’s true. This photo was made in 2015 while on an outing with the local photo club in Westport. This was just as day was breaking and these gulls were congregated on the end of the dock. I wanted to capture a shot of them all congregated there together. It didn’t work quite as planned, as I approached the gulls flew, almost all at once. I didn’t get the shot I planned, but I got another one that was equally as interesting.
