Happenstance

Chrysler Prowler, a photo by Iguanasan on Flickr.

My daughter and I took a trip down to the south shore the other day to meet up with a couple of friends, Bambe, Grant, and do some photography in and around Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.

On the way back, my daughter and I stopped in to Peggy's Cove and while I didn't really photograph the lighthouse as it's one of those subjects that's been photographed to death and the light wasn't very interesting I did stumble into this Chrysler Prowler.

For some reason the owner had parked well away from other cars; maybe fearing careless doors. Whatever the reason, I turned the corner of the Sou' Wester and saw this very cool looking car with a beautiful ocean backdrop.

You just never know when you'll see something beautiful so Chase Jarvis' mantra of "the best camera is the one that's with you" is so true. I try to take my camera with me everywhere so I always have the opportunity to capture wonderful sights like this.
