These views are all from a vacation my wife and I took to Nova Scotia and Cape Breton island this past August (2007). The land is beautiful and wild, the people, very friendly and open, the weather, unpredictable and ever changing. Enjoy these moments in time, I will be adding to this as I go though the pictures.

Very nice collection of travel photos. It looks like you got a weather similar to our trip but you got a shot of the moose. We kept seeing road signs warning us of the possible presence of Bullwinkle but never saw him. ;o)

This are terrific land and sea-scapes shot with skill. Haven't been to Nova Scotia for a long time but these photos really took me back. Big vote!

My mother was born in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. Cape Breton Island (as well as the entire province) has a very special place in my heart. Thank you for your excellent photographs. I appreciate them. God bless.
