in the moments of insanity
a shroud of mystery
becomes a cloak
that holds you closely
keeping you from the perils
of reality.

I wasn't sure at all about posting this right after the last upload, as although taken at the same location at almost the same time, it has a complately different feel. I have added textures for a more painterly outcome plus in this direction there was more light in the sky from the last dying embers of the sun.

Peggy's Cove is 43 kilometres southwest of downtown Halifax and comprises one of the numerous small fishing communities located around the perimeter of the Chebucto Peninsula.
The community is named after the cove of the same name. Peggy is a nickname for Margaret, and the village may have taken its name from St. Margarets Bay upon which it is situated. Local folklore has several alternative origins for the name. Some people claim Peggy was an early settler. Others say she was a young survivor from a shipwreck who remembered nothing of her life before her rescue; not even her name but was given the name Peggy by the family who adopted her.
The village was founded in 1811 when the Province of Nova Scotia issued a land grant of more than 800 acres (3.2 km2) to six families of German descent. The settlers relied on fishing as the mainstay of their economy but also farmed where the soil was fertile. They used surrounding lands to pasture cattle. In the early 1900s the population peaked at about 300. The community supported a schoolhouse, church, general store, lobster cannery and boats of all sizes that were nestled in the Cove.
Many artists and photographers flocked to Peggys Cove. As roads improved, the number of tourists increased. Today the population is smaller but Peggys Cove remains an active fishing village and a favourite tourist destination.

One of many seagulls at Rock Harbor on a wintery afternoon. Sorry about the droppings... Doesn't look like winter because we had no snow that day, but today we are in the middle of a snowstorm.
The same place, the day before. It changes the light, it changes everything.

This young duck left his friends just for some chill time, the others joined him short time later.
