A Walk on a Beach

7/26/2019

11 Comments

 
We had checked the forecast for the next few days, then had to alter out travel plans again, so headed up the peninsula between Trinity and Conception Bays. There, beyond New Melbourne, we spotted another small iceberg....

 ​Much of Newfoundland has a rocky shoreline, but every once in a while there's actually a sand beach, and there was just such a beach at Brownsdale, and we stopped there to get a better look at the iceberg. So, out came Rex and Bianca for a walk on the beach with their horses....

Meanwhile, Jan took a photo of the iceberg with his camera
​(which has much better zoom capability than mine)

On a personal note; It's starting to feel like I've been working on my trip photos forever. It's been almost two weeks now, and I'm not even halfway through yet. I've posted photos from the first doll photo opportunities, and counted 25 sessions. Then being curious, I counted what was still left.....36 more individual photo sessions, some of which had an entire story taken on that spot. And one of those spots was The Fortress of Louisbourg, where the dolls were taken out and set up another 14 times. So I'm just one third of the way through!  I didn't realize at the time that I was taking so many doll photos. So, still a LOT more to come. And here I was berating myself for 'being lazy' and not taking advantage of every opportunity!

Dear Martha, I echo Brigitte, I am loving every photo.

I am so happy that here are many more photos to come.

The photos, of the newlyweds, are particularly sweet.

I love the photo of Jan's iceberg. It's stunning.

Thanks! I do have a telephoto lens for my camera, but it doesn't zoom in nearly as far as Jan's little point and shoot camera. It made me a little jealous sometimes.

I love your photos - and the ones you took this trip have been especially fantastic (especially with your romantic couple).

Thank you for sharing these delightful photo sessions with us!

The iceberg is also most interesting - that's a cool pic by Jan. It looks rather regal, floating along all by itself.

Thanks! I love icebergs, and there were so few of them this trip. Apparently they came early this year, so only little bits were left.
