Newfoundland is one place I wanted to visit and never thought I’d actually get to.
Believe me, it is WELL worth the effort.
I think it’s Canada’s best kept secret – at least for photographers !
When I was there, I kept thinking “Thand God for digital cause I’d never be able to affort this much film.” lol.
Teresa Zieba
Yeah, me too. Never had a chance. Beautiful photo Stan.
Stan Wojtaszek replied
Thanks a lot, Teresa !
Have to win 649. We can go back and search for eagles. :))

Tracy and I both want to get out there!! I agree with all that Tracy said…this has such a great atmosphere…I can hear the waves and gulls…
Great work Stan!!
Stan Wojtaszek replied
Thank you very much, Les and Tracy (oops. Forgot to add that, Tracy. :( )
I managed to spend pretty close to a month there. The whole time I wanted to find what I considered the “iconic” image, something that screamed Newfoundland. This is as close as I got. (Have to try again, I guess. lol)
Cee Neuner

How did I miss this one?? Great shot Stan, and I agree, it’s about as iconic of NL as you’ll get, especially the outport way of life.
