Mostly What It's About
Certainly, the vast majority of visitors to Peggy's Cove go there to look at this lighthouse, which is probably one of the most photographed things in Nova Scotia. It is actually a pretty minimal structure made mostly of poured concrete, and is actually far from being the best looking lighthouse in Nova Scotia. There are many, many of them. I would say that the number of person visits to this area is likely phenomenal and may be counted occasionally. The cash register at this site is not the lighthouse. It has therefore been difficult to maintain it and renovation and painting has mostly been done by volunteers. There is something magical about the structure and view to those like me that photograph it over and over again in all weather, times and conditions. It is also a bit like a test pattern for those that like to try out their lenses and equipment. While this is not my best shot of it, I rarely go near the site without taking a few shots. This is basically it from the late evening of March 20, 2018. I saw about 15 or more people there, in various places. It is rarely without visitors. For this image, I used a basic DSLR camera. it was a very cold evening, with a clear sky and an icy breeze!
