This just means you are meant to shoot a more spectacular 10,000 year old icy leviathan. A trip to Bonavista in a week or two could open up a lot of photo opportunities. Keep shooting.
Yeah...unfortunately, as you know, the winds and current yesterday combined and so this one was moving fairly fast as well so couldn't just stay in one location and shoot. Went from just below the lighthouse to just above the base of North Head where it rolled at a good walking clip...2 knots or so.
Liftin is in a couple of weeks, so if the winds fill Conception Bay with bergs like they did a few years ago (but more on the western side this time) there may be an opportunity by water. I stand well off, BTW and use tele! (Seen idiots not do that.)
Say the word if you want to have a day on the bay, sometime, and do not have a boat of your own. You never know what you'll see. Got the following clip with a cheap Lumix P&S a few years ago off the bluff in Holyrood Arm...
