Flattering, but illegal...and inaccurate actually


Since I work in the industry, I peruse a few mining news sites on occasion. 
And today I came across this:


Yes, that is an article on Mining.com about Iran and mining with one of my photographs, used without license or permission.
And here it is again on Iran-Daily.com:


...in another article about Iran and mining, using my photograph without license or my permission.
Funny thing though...
...it’s actually a photograph from Peru.
Not Iran.
But why be accurate if you’re stealing the image anyway, right?
Anyway, for more mining images go here.

East Coast 2015 Wrap Up



From Quebec to Nova Scotia to Newfoundland to Labrador and back again, it was a great roadtrip.
I put close to 7700kms on the SRT in the end and managed to see quite a lot of the east side of the country.
Other various pictures from the trip are up in the galleries.



This completes the trip galleries, so I've added it to my travel destinations.
Enjoy!


The loop in the wind and rain

When we arrived back on the main land after our sojourn to Newfoundland, 
we decided to drive the cabot trail around Cape Breton.
We spent the night at a fantastic motel in Cheticamp.
It was on the edge of the water and had spectacular views.



Icebergs & Eiders


For our trip to L'Anse aux Meadows, we stayed at a little hotel in St. Anthony.
Right next to the hotel was the whale watching tour dock.
So we gave it a go.
Saw one Minke whale, briefly, and she was camera shy.
Luckily we did see some icebergs and a whole bunch of eider ducks.


Overall, it was a relaxing cruise and quite enjoyable.

So Gros


Gros Morne was spectacular.

Sure, it was foggy and rainy on the first morning in the park, but it cleared by evening and we had a couple days of great sunsets.


I would definitely go back when junior is a bit older and can hike.
