Summertime. Time of heat, heatwaves, thunderstorms and lazy days on the water. Recently, I went on a trip to Brier Island, Nova Scotia. For those who know, those trips are whale-watching trips.
Personally, I don’t care for fishing, even if my life depended on it. No, I like to watch them, see what they are up to and so on. Photography for this comes in second.
Yeah, just a direction. Or an origin. When I lived in the Netherlands, “southwest” usually meant rain and hard wind. Nothing good comes from the southwest.
As you should now know, I live in Nova Scotia, one of the smaller provinces in Canada. While the province may be small, the distances are still quite extensive.
The past few weeks have been full of auroral promises. Not many have come true. So, for those who are in dire need of some aurora, here are some pictures of a previous solar storm result.
For sure, these pictures have been treated somewhat, although nothing was done to make them look unnatural.
Summer is coming. Sounds much better than “Winter is coming”, right? Unless you have heard this for weeks already, and nothing shows up. A few nicer days here and there, entombed in sheets of rain, fog and hard wind.
But it is always a pleasure to go out in one of those dry downpours, if only for a few hours.
It has been a while since I last blogged about anything. Usually, at this time of the year, there are all kinds of new things to see and enjoy. This year? Not so much.
Or perhaps it’s just me getting impatient with the weather.
