Progress

 We are still working on 
our little staircase gallery.



Unbelievable what a few coats of white, pale yellow, bright yellow and even some black paint can do!


As soon as all the framed prints, carvings and beach glass and stones are in place, I will post some new photos.




Don't forget to check out my 365 project - Today is day 251.

365 Project - Day 121 - 5/1/11

Started reading Electric City: The Stehelins of New France by Paul H. Stehelin today, really loving it, amazing story! This is a photo of the Wheels from the Marie Therese, from the New France Railway, 1897. New France - also known as the "Electric City" was a former settement in Nova Scotia. It was founded in 1892 by the Stehelin family of France. Many years before electricity was available in the rest of Digby County the mill generated electricity for lighting and New France became known as "Electric City".

 A pole railway constructed by the Stehelins ran to Weymouth, 17 miles away to ship lumber. For close to two decades (1895–1912) the Stehelins ran a successful lumbering operation. Due to decreasing lumber prices after the First World War ended, the operation could not be sustained. The buildings were torn down in the late 1950s. A hundred years ago the Stehelin family entertained friends and business colleagues from around the world with dinners, dances, hunting and skating. 
New France blended European French, Acadian, Black and Mi'kmaq cultures. All that remains today are some of the stone foundations. Photo taken in Church Point, Nova Scotia.

Last day of March 2011


What an amazing day we had here in Nova Scotia today! Spring is here. Although it was a bit frosty this morning, what glorious sun! A short walk in the woods by a small river in Concession, NS brought me to my photograph of the day.  

(Click on the link below to be taken to the full size image on my website.)

A fallen tree reflected in the running water, framed by the bare branches hanging overhead. Soon all will be bursting with new buds and leaves of green. I also spent a few minutes on the beach in Belliveau Cove, another wonderful spot. While enjoying a relaxing stroll along the boardwalk by the sea, I watched clam diggers looking for bar clams. 

If you missed any of the previous 89 days, just go to my Good Nature Photography website to see
every day since January 1, 2011 the beginning of this project.

Tattoos by Jamie MacKay
 
An amazing charcoal drawing by Jamie MacKay that was pulled recently by facebook. 
Many facebook users made this picture their profiled picture in protest.
"Vanishing Cream"
The piece is entitled "Vanishing Cream".

Jamie's intent with this piece is to portray the concept that society in general has an obsession with beauty and with "fixing" what may not be broken at all. It focuses on the consequences of seeking the unattainable public perception of beauty, thereby losing sight of who we really are. The image was meant to capture this "melting" or "dissolving" of one's true self in the vain search of this unattainable perfection that society dictates to the masses.

Timing is everything...

I remember the first time I came to Clare, my friend said "this is Route 1,
...it runs all the way from Halifax to Yarmouth" - I thought to myself - So? I don't need to know that...

Little did i know i'd still be here more than a decade later... :)
