in front of all this beauty

A lighthouse up the hill behind me, and the north Atlantic way down there, shrouded in the fog. It was lovely.

Buoyed

One of the best trips I’ve been on was this one, two weeks in Nova Scotia. I’d happily return any time.

I was shooting for a specific project at the time, and never really posted anything else from the trip. And I’ve gotten a little weary of all the Texas and New Mexico stuff I’ve been posting, so here’s a short pivot north. This particular scene includes a lot of things I’m not used to shooting: oceans, rain, fishing shacks, buoys, boats. Oh, and trees and hills.

Laundry Day

My mom told me one time that her Aunt Debbie had a technique where she’d fold a fitted sheet as she was taking it down from the clothesline. I can barely fold one that’s in a pile on the bed and warm from the dryer.

But, anyway, I saw laundry on the line nearly every day of our trip to Nova Scotia.

Must be the Easter Bunny’s storeroom

You know that if I was looking at and photographing the front of a church, I sure did walk around back to see what was there. And that’s how I found the storeroom with oeuf boxes stacked up. Naturally, the only conclusion is that I found where the Easter Bunny stores their eggs until they need them.

Delicious treats (and fog)

Over dinner the night before, we chatted with a lovely women who was from Church Point. She strongly urged us to visit the town, which is famous for its church. And, of course, the side hustle of snacks is probably equally important.
