About -42c with the wind chill and the wind was blowing right at me off the water...I would take one shot then have to turn right around as it was stinging my face and I could hardly catch my breath. I was so cold I could not feel my fingers to trip the shutter...lol...The steam was lifting from the water and looked very cool I thought. Hope you all find this shot as pleasing as I do...the location is Peggy\'s Cove, in Nova Scotia....one of the most photographed lighthouses in North America.

Beautiful sunset indeed and greately captured. Just a pitty that some rays that show up on the snow aren't so evident. They would have been in armony with the oranges of the sky.
Anyway, great and well composed shot!

Regards, Y.D.

P.S. Thanks for the advices

superclassic & supercold shot :)) well done, ok, but I prefere your Pinhole works :)


Terry McCully   {K:9221} 7/17/2003
Thanks everyone for your kind comments, and thanks again Zelda about the pinhole works, they are starting to take over my photography!!!


Massimo Di Maggio   {K:-56773} 7/17/2003
Despite the snow, this image puts cheerfulness, maybe because it?s a beautiful sunset or because the colours are good or because the light of the sun is blinding. I like the disposition of lighthouse and of sun, at the sides of the photo, like symbols of perennial light, when there is one, the other rests. Bye Max

Terry, I'll be darned! I remember rating this one "over there" last winter. It's still superb!


Gregory Fiedler   {K:15454} 7/17/2003
Terry, beautiful image! Well done.....


Leslie Cohelan   {K:20887} 7/17/2003
Glad to see you here Terry...this is a great composition ...and just because there is snow on the ground doesn't mean that you can't get a warm feeling from it...the composition is well framed and the colors beautiful, but cheers really go to the photographer who braved the weather to take ...excellent


Jamie Ferguson   {K:6284} 7/18/2003
For a highly photographed lighthouse I can't say that I've ever seen it before. Its absolutely exquisite though.


Anders Blomqvist   {K:1887} 7/18/2003
Thank's to the snow and the warm colours, there's a special greatness in this picture that I like... and yes, the green light makes it!

John McKend   {K:117} 7/21/2003
-42 degres C - you are a brave boy, but the result was well worth the frostbite. A lovely image and the lighthouse light realy makes it special. Well done.

Gaetan Chevalier   {K:4188} 7/21/2003
Terry, this is really a wonderful photo. Superb colors, great light, seeing snow and water make this shot quite original. The exposure is just perfect.


Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 7/21/2003
Well, it was worth it, I can tell. These are the situations where I wish there was some flare, but not too much. I like the nice sunlight reflections on the white (snow?)and water. As far as balance, I'd be more inclined to suggest less foreground for more sky.


T L   {K:18928} 7/21/2003
This is the kind of picture (as beautiful as it is) that makes me enjoy summer even more :-). A picture with so beautiful colors, that it's warming even in -42. Excellent and congrats!


Dave M   {K:9043} 7/22/2003
Beyond the technical aspects of this shot, which are quite perfect, (for example you've managed to stunningly capture the light and color of the sunset), the composition here is also equally perfect. An image of stunning beauty. Brava.


Kim Culbert   {K:36791} 8/1/2003
Nothing like Canadian winters, hey? The detail in the image is wonderful, and I love the fact that there's snow, water and a beautiful sunset all mixed into one. My only nit is that the lighthouse is on one side of frame and the sun is on the other extreme, with a whole lot of emptiness in the middle. Both sun and lighthouse could be more in the frame for esthetics. But, it was -42, and I think you did a wonderful job in the conditions!


Igor L.   {K:7432} 8/4/2003
Beautiful shot!!!


Mieke van Nellen   {K:173} 8/30/2003

Kristina Kohut   {K:49990} 5/27/2004
Wonderful! How can the sunlight be so warming and beautiful, and still don't melt the snow away...


Nicole Marcisz   {K:10163} 6/8/2004
Beautiful composition and color, nice work! I know it isn't easy going out into the freezing cold to get a picture.
