A snow storm is brewing! Sunday December 21st/08. / Yesterday the snowfall was heavy in Ontario, the province next door to us, and on the eastern seaboard of the United States. Today it is moving quite quickly into our area of Quebec. / This is a curve in the road close to my house. You can see a man and his dog braving the elements if you look closely on the right side just past the hydro pole. They only appear as shadows. Needless to say driving visibility is poor. We ventured out earlier this morning to get a few errands done, but returned home as soon as possible. I had anticipated taking a few shots today on the occasion of this being the winter solstice, but did not expect to find such treacherous conditions. The wind is glacial and although I was able to snap a few shots a few feet from the car, my fingers were throbbing from the cold, and I needed to seek shelter immediately!

Peggy’s Cove is 43 kilometres southwest of downtown Halifax and comprises one of the numerous small fishing communities located around the perimeter of the Chebucto Peninsula. The community is named after the cove of the same name. Peggy is a nickname for Margaret, and the village may have taken its name from St. Margarets Bay upon which it is situated. Local folklore has several alternative origins for the name. Some people claim Peggy was an early settler. Others say she was a young survivor from a shipwreck who remembered nothing of her life before her rescue; not even her name but was given the name Peggy by the family who adopted her. The village was founded in 1811 when the Province of Nova Scotia issued a land grant of more than 800 acres (3.2 km2) to six families of German descent. The settlers relied on fishing as the mainstay of their economy but also farmed where the soil was fertile. They used surrounding lands to pasture cattle. In the early 1900s the population peaked at about 300. The community supported a schoolhouse, church, general store, lobster cannery and boats of all sizes that were nestled in the Cove. Many artists and photographers flocked to Peggys Cove. As roads improved, the number of tourists increased. Today the population is smaller but Peggys Cove remains an active fishing village and a favourite tourist destination.

This is a shot I took after shooting One Night Under the Milky Way I brought the ISO down from 3200 to 100 of course I had to compensate by opening up the shutter for a longer period! That night, Monday July 20, 2009, I was out about 3 hours and I could see this bright object just above the horizon to my left and in what must have been about a 2 hour duration is had only traveled about 15 or 20 degrees in the sky. I’m not completely sure but I think it is the International Space Station and that night it had the Space Shuttle docked to it!
