Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada. What the tourists come to see in Peggy's Cove is this lighthouse, described as the most photographed in the world. Built in 1914, to replace an older light, this 15 meter tall lighthouse is on a large rock outcrop that lines the ocean shore. The red box at the base of the lighthouse is a post box from which the tourists mail postcards to friends. So many visitors do not walk to the cove and miss the real character of this village. Enjoy!

Yepper, I've been there and I had lots of relaxing time sitting on the rocks watching & listening to the crashing waves. Off that point is where SwissAir Flight 111 crashed years ago.

The people really add perspective to the rocks and the lighthouse Thad. I like the composition very much. I like seeing the lighthouse as I look out to sea. Wonderful series and post.

It's a great lighthouse and a superb series, Thad. I love the marbled colours in the rocks, too.

That lighthouse, and where it sits, reminds me of the Marblehead Lighthouse I have posted a lot. Very nice, Thad.
