Bay of Fundy

Summer of 2007 my wife and I took a trip to Nova Scotia, as there was a dog agility event being held there. Rather than spending the entire day at the event, I took some side trips to explore a bit more of this magnificent area.

One of these explorations had me in the wonderful town of Digby on the Bay of Fundy at low tide…

Low Tide on the Bay

The Bay of Fundy has phenomenal tidal variation as can be seen from the markings on the dock and the position of the boats.

After I took this shot, I found it to be kind of flat, as the clouds were too bright in the image; it’s something that nowadays I would have photographed with a bracketed series of exposures to increase the overall dynamic range of the image. It was not until several years later that I re-processed the image with a single image HDR technique, as well as adding some texture to the image itself.

As I still like what I captured here, this will be on my list of images to re-process with some of the skills that I have picked up over the years, so I can get it to the next level.

    I think it is a beautiful beautiful photo! It gives me a feeling of being forlorn and seems to be very still and peaceful, and a little stormy!
