HYANNIS PORT BEACH OUTSIDE THE KENNEDY COMPOUND

On the beach next to the Hyannis Port Kennedy Compound in April, these seashells formed the perfectly peaceful backdrop to a dramatic location. The Kennedy Clan is not the political powerhouse it once was, but the innumerable seashells located on the beach outside the house would still have plenty of stories to tell if only stored inside were the voices of JFK and Jackie rather than the sound of a thousand waves.

On the Bedford Highway perched on the shores of the Halifax Harbour's Bedford Basin is this privately owned house. In a former day, this was building was a music rotunda. Part of an estate owned by Edward, the Duke of Kent, the music rotunda was actually on Governor John Wentworth's property. The Duke of Kent was the commander-in-chief of the Halifax Garrison. He lived on the estate with his French mistress, Julie St. Laurent.

DUNCAN'S COVE LIGHTHOUSE


From the shore looking up towards the Duncan's Cove lighthouse (Chebucto Head), one realizes again the enormity of the task set before such a building. This is the harshest possible land into which any ship could come into contact. If the way was not lit decades or even centuries ago, huge numbers of lives would be lost. In this picture, the lighthouse looks to be miles away but is actually just a short walk up the slippery cliffs. After traversing one of the worst roads in HRM, the drive downtown is about 25 minutes.

DUNCAN'S COVE


Attempting to capture waves crashing when their frequency borders on Christmas-like is difficult. Lighting was conducive to photographic sessions on this day in Duncan's Cove. This picture, looking towards Europe from the mouth of the Halifax Harbour, reminds one of times decades in the past when massive convoys of ships passed by this very point, entering into dangerous territory. On this day, three container ships seemed like plenty.
