Newfoundland Photo Gallery Published (John)
posted by John & Phyllis Web Site
We have just published a new gallery of my photographs of Newfoundland. I first visited ‘The Rock’ on ‘Morgan’s Cloud’ in 1991, circumnavigated it in 1992 and again in 2005; not to speak of passing through at least half a dozen other times on the way to or from the north.
Newfoundland is a very special place to Phyllis and me that is populated (sparsely) with some of the nicest and most interesting people on the planet, some of whom we are lucky enough to count among our best friends. Phyllis lived in St. John’s for ten years before we met and considers it more home than anywhere else. I lived there with her for six months between cruises and thoroughly enjoyed it, although the weather can be, shall we say, challenging.
Newfoundland makes a great first Attainable Adventure Cruise; challenging and exotic enough to be interesting without the more extreme edge of Greenland or the need for an ocean passage, at least from North America.
In selecting the photographs for the gallery we have tried to tell a bit of a story and introduce you to a few of our Newfoundland friends and acquaintances as well as show you the rugged beauty of the place.
We are now publishing our galleries in two formats: one for viewers using slower dial-up internet connections and the other with larger images and a slide show mode for those with broadband internet connections. Note that the “high speed galleries” require the Adobe Flash plug-in to work; most computers have this installed already. Users of computers that don’t have Flash will automatically be given guidance on how to install it.
