Peggys Point Lighthouse, Nova Scotia, from the north.


The rocks are gritty and rounded here as I compose this carefully using my DSLR camera. I am looking south and so against the sun and shadows can be problematic. However I like the mood here and almost managed to get the lighthouse without any tourist too. See last photo for alternative view
.
While no doubt the most well-known lighthouse in Canada and one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world, the history of the light at Peggy's Cove is little known. It was built and lit in 1868 and stands at 26ft high. It is 65ft above the water level.

Best at full screen. Enjoy the day.

I like this picture very much!
It is a very different and exciting composition. The glimpse of the sun, and the shaes in the rock work really well with lighthouse as focal point.
Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
