JOURNEY'S END: A METAPHOR.

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.

Hello Lloyd, just inquiring about icebergs over your way - are there still any fairly close to shore, and fairly large? Or you blanketed in a thicker than pea soup fog like St. John's has been for an eternity?

p.s. by the way, I originally sent this msg. to your netscape email address (from your profile) but the mail was not deliverable, just thought I'd let you know.
Charlie,
I'm in CBS. There are probably some icebergs along the north side of the bay, but it's much too foggy to see anything from here.
Love this pic (and title). The colours are fantastic.
