Celebrating everything wonderful about this fabulous part of Newfoundland & Labrador! Photographer, sometimes with an iPhone, mostly with my trusty Fuji X-T1.
@AdventureCanada’s Ocean Endeavour visited today, and what a day it was! Started off like most days with a good breeze of SW wind and sun. Then, the thunder and lightning rolled in with rain showers. Just before the fog rolled in, I snapped this one. Bit moody eh?
There’s blocky ones, wedged, pinnacle and dry dock. Then there’s the icing on the cake - the ones with a hole straight through the middle! @NLtweets#Iceberg
#OnThisDay in 1922, the Royal Navy HMS Raleigh ran aground at Point Amour, Labrador. The flagship of the North America and West Indies Squadron and was on a goodwill tour. 12 sailors died and more than 700 got ashore. The ship was blasted apart in 1926, as it was an embarrassment
I work hard for these today. We’ve been getting unseasonably warm conditions in these parts. The berries spoil quickly and it makes getting them tougher too.
Needed to clear my head, so I headed up on the hill with a Tetley in new pottery from PEI (love love love this one) and a handful of Peak Freans. Think it worked.
@reneefowler99 @GirlOnAnIsland There’s one still lingering in L’Anse au Loup harbour and another moving back and forth between Red Bay and Pinware bay depending on the tide :)
Of all my years with a camera, this iceberg in particular has been responsible for the most early morning trips to Point Amour. I’ve witnessed it change shapes, tilt, turn and now vanish in the NE wind we are having today. It was a great bit of fun while it lasted!
