On the 25th of September 2008, 16 Photographers met up at Halifax Airport, Nova Scotia, to set out on a wonderful exploration of the Island, which lies on the east coast of Canada, and also to enter New Brunswick to attend a workshop at Adair's Lodge.
This adventure was lead by Sally Mason and Don Kelly, and we were all looking forward to the Canadian Autumn and it's colours, as well as fishing villages, lighthouses, great seafood, Celtic Celebrations and to enjoy the company of like minded people.
Sally also held a workshop at Adair's Lodge, which we all participated in, and also were able to visit and enjoy the company of Freeman Patterson.
Freeman gave us a wonderful welcome and lunch, and invited his dear friends and family to greet us all, and escort us around his property.
What an experience!!!

I am not going to go in too great detail about the holiday, but will put up a few photographs, which remind me of Nova Scotia.
Some of the things that epitomised Nova Scotia for me, in no particular order were:

Tapestry of colours on the landscape of trees.
Cape Cod Chairs
Churches and Cemeteries
Pumpkins and scarecrows
Lighthouses
Lobster and cray pots, and colourful buoys
Fishing Ports
Apple trees
Yellow School buses
Clotheslines
Crysanthenums in pots.
