I had gone to Nova Scotia to see my longtime friend Jenny and her family. It had been a very long time since I had seen her. She suggested we head to Peggy's Cove for the day but, we sisnt anticipate the weather. However, this magical place reels you in even during rainfall. Its a peaceful town and then you walk to the lighthouse and realize just how fierce the ocean is and how fragile you are being so close to the raging ocean. Amazing place!Editing
Yes, I lightened the photo in lightroom. Other than that I don't believe I did anything else to it.In my camera bag
I carry an extra lens and spare batteries.Feedback
Go with your gut, trust nature and architecture to provide you with the best set ups. You may feel you can do better but, at the end of the day what is real is what is the most beautiful.
