Towards the Light
At the base of the Point Amour Lighthouse on the southeastern coast of Labrador. Fog had set in for the day, but the light shown through.

Here a Bow … There a Bow
Web
Dew drops hung heavy on the spider’s web. Foggy afternoon walks … southeastern Labrador.
Fog
The tallest working lighthouse on the Atlantic is at Point Amour in Labrador. It’s a beautiful location … or at least that’s what I imagine given the fog that enveloped the lighthouse when I visited in July.
Up
It’s a new year for me. Today was my birthday, and I love to think about these flowers growing towards the sun and giving all they have to their beautiful blooms.
Reminds us all … grow up to be all you can be! Shine forth, little flower.
Arches
A spectacular view from the western coast of Newfoundland just before entering Gros Morne National Park.
Insulate
This photograph of insulators were taken at an insulated community called Manic-Cinq in the Quebec province of Canada. It’s one of the world’s largest dams and massive hydro-electric facility.
Lumber
Stands are felled timber are found all along the Trans-Labrador Highway.
Similar piles of cut wood perfect for fireplaces are found behind and along houses in the towns and villages of Labrador.
We’re told most homes use electric heat, but I’m not sure what the numbers are because plenty of houses have collections of firewood as big as the house themselves nearby.
Unsure the purpose of these piles of felled timber. Are they used for construction? Fire wood? Do you know?
Inukshuk Family
You see these little guys all over southeastern Labrador, but not all of the little guys have families. Turns out … the little guys … are called Inukshuk. My favorites are found lightly painted on pottery at the Moulder of Dreams studio in my unfavorite Port Hope Simpson.
