Newfoundland (AKA Steve's First Time in Canada)

Myself, Janis, Mark, Martyn & Mary spent a wonderful week on the Rock. Here are a few of the pictures, mostly landscape. These are the ones I felt had the most photographic merit. Newfoundland is a photographers paradise and I could have easily stayed another several weeks and wandered around with the camera. Newfoundland is Possibly one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and I look forward to returning and picking up where I left off, hopefully with the same band of Irregulars. I will soon start compiling all the people pictures and put them in a different album, as that was certainly a different and most peculiar kettle of Cod.
