Sunset between Cow Head and Rocky Harbour on June 22
Sunset between Cow Head and Rocky Harbour on June 22

Sunsets on Newfoundland’s West coast North of Rocky Harbour. Cow Head has an amazing play running (not every night – check the schedule!) called Tempting Providence AND a B&B called Bayview where one can view the sunset and the sunrise from one’s deck!

We had chosen June to travel there out of necessity and our weather was cold, sometimes rainy and misty. We were lucky that when we needed it to be good, the weather cooperated.
On June 22, our last night, we drove back up to Cow Head to attend Tempting Providence (rarely ever so moved by a performance. All four actors were top notch.

As we took the short drive south, we were then blessed with a beautiful sunset on our right and a magnificent, vivid, complete arch of a rainbow on our left. Here are two photos taken through car windows as it was unsafe to stop.

It was as if Newfoundland were saying:
Sorry my weather wasn’t finer. Come back again soon.

Solar Eclipse at Wasaga Beach – May 20

A solar eclipse from a beautiful spot

Serendipity, indeed! We were up at Wasaga visiting my son. Can’t think of a better place to have shot this eclipse.

Some photos taken with my old Konica-Minolta Maxxum 5d and a Sigma 70-300 lens:
