These shots are from three “Road to the Shore” communities in central Newfoundland – Musgrave Harbour (top), Deadman’s Bay (middle) and Lumsden (bottom).

For nearly the entire day of driving – over ten hours – the sun shone sporadically while it rained lightly. Large, slow moving storm clouds seemed to follow us as we took the long way home to St. John’s from Gander, first via the Kittiwake Coast then via the Bonavista Peninsula.

This being the last “free” weekend before the busy summer months, we were indulging in a photo taking trip and mini vacation mixed with a bit of iceburg hunting. The payoff came late – at nearly 8:00pm as the sun was setting behind a cloud on the horizon… more on that later.
