Lloyd's Newfoundland Photos
About Me
- Name: Lloyd
My home is in Chamberlains, CBS, Newfoundland: a place close enough to sea so that I can go there to watch the glorious sunsets over the bay, and the other infinite variety of sights and sounds that are forever changing, yet forever the same. I'm not as young as I used to be and don't get around much any more, but I've had many wonderful hours of enjoyment with my Yasihca 44 TLR and trusty old OM-2. I've always enjoyed photographing wild flowers, particularly the smaller ones, many of which , albeit mostly overlooked and dismissed as weeds, are exquisitely beautiful. Digital photography, complete with all the magic of its own portable darkroom, has brought a new dimension to the hobby. My OM-2 is retired now, but it is such a beautiful instrument, such a joy to hold and behold, that I don't think I will ever want to part with it. My digital, used mostly, is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30. Its 35-420 mm Leica zoom lens can really reach out for those hard to reach shots. My photographs are strictly amateurish, but hopefully some have succeeded in capturing something of the moment that inspired them.

CAPE RACE LIGHTHOUSE. Arguably the most legendary site in North America. It is literally reeking with history. Canada has nothing to compare. There, off that rugged point, the New World met , kissed and embraced the Old.

ROAD TO THE CAPE.
Beware, a terrible, terrible road: a 25 km. nightmare. A national disgrace! We stopped here to watch wales cavort offshore, and that somewhat made up for the torturous drive: a drive that should have taken only 30 minutes, but took almost 2 hours.

A WILD COVE.One of the scenes along to road to the Cape. Interesting contrast with the cotton grass that seemed to grow everywhere.
