Upper Island Cove 9














Upper Island Cove 9

Upper Island Cove is located in Conception Bay North.


In case you are wondering, I have taken a few days off and haven't sent my Photo of the Day.  If I don't share photos in the next few days, it is for the same reason.  No need to worry.

I am continuing the Upper Island Cove Series, with images of a few houses and outbuildings from the community.  

Feel free to share with family and friends.

Upper Island Cove is located in Conception Bay North.


Today's photos of the boats were taken in 1982, 2002 and 2003 and show a few scenic views taken around the community.  You will see a few showing the clear water and rocky shores,  as well as a few of a fenced in garden. 

People used to grow lots of root crops such as potatoes, turnip, carrots and beets.  I don't see as many gardens as I drive around the province these days.

Feel free to share with family and friends.

As most of you know, I photograph boats wherever I go, and when travelling around Newfoundland and Labrador, there are many.  If you are interested, I have several pages of boat pics on my website.  Feel free to check them at your leisure.  http://www.lanephotography.com/boats/boatpics/boatpics_intro.htm

Upper Island Cove 6

Upper Island Cove is located in Conception Bay North.


Today's photos of the old fishing stages were taken in 2002 and 2003.  I went back there in 2014 and the old sheds were gone then.

Some were taken with an Olympus CZ 2100 (my first digital camera) and a Canon 10D (my first digital SLR camera).  I really liked the results of the Olympus camera in terms of quality, but it was slow, especially the motorized zoom.  When the Canon 10 D came out and I could use my Canon lenses and shoot several frames per second, I bought one and was very happy with it.

Feel free to share with family and friends.

Upper Island Cove 5














Upper Island Cove 5

Upper Island Cove is located in Conception Bay North.


Maybe Newfoundland and Labrador is one of the only places where you can view such amazing views of the "wild" seacoasts, rock structures and villages. Today's photos show the steep, rocky cliffs near the town.  In the first photo, you can see a few houses off in the distance.

Feel free to share with family and friends.
