Somewhere out there: the Atlantic Ocean

The Parc National du Fjord du Saguenay is a fascinating place. Not only for the wildlife but also due to the impressive powers of water that can be witnessed here. The Saint Laurent is an enormous river, on good days you can see across it and on bad days you have no idea how far the other side is. You can witness its flows and currents. And when you are there for long enough you see the tides coming in from the Atlantic, with a tidal range of up to 5.5m (17 feet). Above the river, there is an amazing dune from which this sunrise picture was taken. And you could think you can see the Atlantic all the way out there (you can feel the tides too, so how far can it be)… except: it is still 1200 km (750miles) away.
