I can't seem to get enough of Peggy's Cove Lighthouse. Here are a couple of sunsets from this month.

Also included is a morning shot at the Cole Harbour Salt Marsh Rails to Trails.

Comments, suggestions appreciated.

thanks.

Like you, I love Peggy's Cove. Once spent five days there, but most shots lost to a HD failure. Yours are good.

Grreat shots John. I like the cloud formations in #1. Hard to get shots there without people all over the place!

I want to come up to the Maine coast and Nova Scotia next spring so would would be a good time to come hopefully with not too much rain?

Ummmmm, Spring, yes. That particular time of year tends to be spread out over many months, sometimes it seems as if it is always spring any time after January, LOL. Unfortunately, April and May are usually our most rainy months with March just slightly behind. If you can delay until June you might have a better chance, or if you can get more than a week, usually at least one of those days should be clear.

Hope this helps.

Ok, now your talking!

August through to the end of October is the best time. Cool evenings, warm days through August and most of September. Trees start turning colour first couple of weeks in October.

Did you have any place in particular in mind?
