Golden Morning

Louisbourg Lighthouse Point, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia

A golden morning near Louisbourg Lighthouse on a chilly autumn day. I always love when light conditions like this happen. Shortly after, we were petted with hail and rain at the Louisbourg Fortress.

Really pretty scene Eva, and I especially love the way you captured the soft light and colors. Beautifully done.

An appealing and natural looking presentation. The warm light is transformative.

Like the atmospher you've captured here. I can feel the weather coming in with those blue clouds. Great mix on the warm yellows. I think there is some sort of speck in the sky on the large that can be easily cloned out (in that dark blue cloud). Loks like a beautiful place.

Wonderful golden light, Eva. The rugged coast looks challenging to explore. Beautiful work.

Gorgeous light. I find compositions like this so hard to visualize. An ordinary scene in some regards but you've made it look very special.

Superb, Eva. That soft warm light gracing this rugged coast is simply beautiful. Love that nice arc of the coast leading the eye back.
I agree with Ian, you are doing an incredible job in scanning these 6x7's. I too may seek your advice as I seem to never get a decent scan.

The large image is a must see. Rugged beauty accentuated by the earth tones and nice side light to show the detail.

Beautiful soft colors and warm light. I can feel the wind in my hair and hear the surf as I sip a warm cup of Joe...
