We had a great week in Nova Scotia and truly appreciated Kevin Finch’s efforts and hospitality to his warm and beautiful country!!!  Today on the flights home Jim shared some of his favorites and they were, as always, spectacular!!  He asked me to pick my 5 favorites, which was tough!  I thought I might share a few of my favorite images, not already published.  I have no reason to pick these except they represent the joys of shooting in Nov Scotia,  for me!

 

 

 

I shoot three version of every image with the Fuji X-T1, a Velvia (pumped color), Provia, (close to accurate color) , and a Monochrome with a red filter.  These two, both, did it for me, for different reasons, you can think about them and react if you would like!!

 

 

 

These lobster floats had a very interesting pattern to their ropes and i liked the lines of the stripes in the floats!

 

 

With sunrise light, killer color and the tack sharp 90mm Fuji lens, how could you miss!

 

 

Same goes for tho orange rope and pilings!

 

 

A boat that is past it’s prime was just to much fun to capture and process for affect.

 

 

Finally, I just an never resist shooting what people paint on building, and this one was really interesting!!!

 

 

….and finally, it may be predictable, but red buildings and a white boat, gotta do it!!!!

 

 

Thanks for tagging along this week!

By-the-way, the two coiled rope shots were with the Fuji X30, a great, compact, carry camera!!

 

O.K. just for fun, this is the lead image converted to a monochrome in Silver Efex Pro 2.  I put it at the bottom so you would have to scroll back and forth to compare them, each has it’s own qualities, the color shot is all about the color of the hulls, the monochrome all about shapes, yet both work, but which works best?????  You decide.
