    I'm really liking this series here. The first one is slightly rotated (the horizon and the house). In the second I almost think "Yukon Dog Sled" when you see that mound of equipment, and that effect is heightened by the IR effects.

    Craig,

    I really like the tones of your harbor series. You have to show me how to do it.

    Not much different....really? What about snow? Do you get lots of snow? Cold...ND can get pretty cold too in the winter. How cold do you get?

    What a beautiful place to live .. your very lucky :D

    Hi Craig,

    I'm really loving these beautiful shots. Being from Florida, the maritime overture to this area strikes a familiar chord with me.....looks like a place I could go and happily spend a couple of months. Keep 'em coming.

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy Andrew,

    Thanks very much, I know, I tried messing with it and it got worse<G> so I decided to leave it alone.

    I see the sled look now that you said it.

    Howdy Mary Kim,

    I know, I just loved the feel of that place, with all the other folks wandering around, this place just seem to be a quiet zone, really had a good feel to it.

    Thanks. I think all of the Maritime Provinces are quite beautiful -both on the coast and inland. But, I'm biased. I live here.:D

    All of the areas along the eastern and southern shores of NS (below Halifax on the map) avoid the worst of the snow because they're right on the ocean. Despite the cold winds and cold surface temperatures, not as much snow falls on the shoreline and what does fall, doesn't stay much.

    I now live in New Brunswick on the opposite side of the Bay of Fundy (near Sussex which is between Saint John and Moncton on Highway #1 on the map). We're inland about 30 miles from the shore as the crow flies. As a result we get much more snow and it stays. There's even a ski hill not too far from where I live.

    Temperature-wise we get to zero (F) or -30 (C) fairly often in January and early February. Combine that with snow and a north-easterly wind and winter is a challenge for a few weeksrolleyes1.gif

    But, other than that, it's reasonably temperate.

    Come north for a visit. The scenery can be breathtaking any time of the year. Want snow? we've got it! Want foggy shores? No problem. How about farmers' fields etc.? Uh huh. Fishing boats and lobster traps? Yep. Rocky shore lines? Sandy Beaches? Forests? It's all here. The only two things we can't offer are deserts and high mountains like the Rockies.

    Gotta love the Maritimes. I do sound like a one-woman booster club, don't I?iloveyou.gif

    Thank you for all the information. It is very helpful :D

    Doesn't sound bad for a winter visit. Better then what we get here in ND.

    Craigs beautiful photos pushed the "go" button on a trip we have always talked about.

    Hi Craig,

    I knew I would get into trouble for disappearing. I'll post a couple of IR shots soon.

    We are really looking forward to going back and including NF also.
