Down the Long Narrow Road in Port-au-Port
I’ve already posted about the workshop on Day 3, but that was only a part of my spectacular day on Friday. After breakfast, I grabbed my camera to pay homage to a wonderful sunrise over the ocean. A tripod would have been useless in that wind. Instead, I held my long lens against the corner of the inn to try and hold it steady.
The wind didn’t let up all day – quite a difference from the day before. I left the tripod in the car and shot at high speeds with my long lens, hoping I’d capture something close to the framing I had wanted. They were challenging shooting conditions, but fun for sure! It was much cooler too and the ocean was dramatic. At one point, we got caught 20 minutes from the car in the pouring rain. The rainbow over the lobster fishing station, however, made it worth it. I am so grateful we had this sightseeing time in addition to the workshops. In the afternoon, after class, our very knowledgeable tour guide, Louis Christophe (my program coordinator), drove us from Cape St. George all the way to the end of that long point on the map below- several kilometers down a narrow dirt road. It was a great adventure and new territory for me.
Dominique! You inspire me as always! I want to go paint my drum now!
I loved watching the video of you and your friend and sat and felt the energy of it- it was so relaxing:) All your photos and your art class are such a joy to look at!:) I especially love the last photo of the light poking through the clouds on the ocean. Very heavenly or etheric feeling. Love, Janis:)
Thanks Janis!
