Meadow Fox-Tail, Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia

            Here's a single stalk of meadow Fox-Tail beside a corner post of a cast iron fence in the cemetery at Fort Anne. We were driving down Route 1 through the Annapolis Valley on our way to Yarmouth when the sun disappeared behind low clouds and light fog. We decided to take advantage of the soft lighting and spent several hours exploring the grounds of this interesting historical site. We were hoping to get some photos of the grounds keepers mowing the steep embankments of the fort, but had missed that by a few weeks. Here this single sprig of Fox-Tail contrasts nicely with the hard, rough, rust speckled surface of the iron. There wasn't a breath of wind and the black flies were out in annoying, but not brutal numbers. This is the location where I had a black fly get trapped inside my Century Graphic ten years previously while I was changing roll film holders. The event was recorded by the "mashed black fly" damage found on the processed negative... the fly having been squashed as the film was being advanced.

Taken with my new (at the time) Kodak DX 6490 camera.
