Says a tired Tito to his friends. As if being tied to an insane photographer isn’t the best life ever! Well, I guess I can understand not wanting to drive up north, late at night, the same night that you’ve got a red-eye flight to Florida. pbbbtttthhhh. We didn’t find them that night, but we…

I finally got around to writing down the pattern for my Bay of Fundy scarf – a huge, soft, scarf/wrap that I whipped up on vacation while down east this autumn. Don’t be intimidated by the idea of a scarf on 3.5mm needles, the pattern is pretty mindless and easy (which is what made it…

I apologize for the image intense post coming up – narrowing down photography of Peggy’s Cove is impossible. It’s worth it, I promise. Peggy’s Cove is like being on the moon. The austere beauty of this rocky landscape makes this one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever shot. Of course there is the lighthouse,…

What a busy weekend! It was the perfect weekend – full of family, friends and crafty pursuits. I couldn’t have asked for a better thanksgiving. On Saturday Tito and I drove to a an alpaca farm that he found online – Alpaca Acres in Stratford Ontario. Yes, he sleuthed out an alpaca farm for me and drove…

Annapolis Royal is a beautiful small town on the Bay of Fundy – and a historically significant one for Canada as well. The town deserves it’s own post – but today I wanted to focus on highlighting the incredible tides you can see from it’s waterfront. The Bay of Fundy divides the provinces of Nova…

I just got back from the east coast and I think I’ve taken some of my best photos ever. I’ve shot Canada coast to coast, and though the mountains in the west coast are lovely, give me the maritime provinces any day; the warmth of the people and the beauty of the landscape are incomparable.…
