John Deere 310SG Backhoe-Loader, Fox River, Nova Scotia
This colorful parking spot is on HY 209, just past the intersection with the Woods Mountain Road, Since this was taken back in July of 2003, the large patch of Lupines has disappeared. This area is at the lowest point in the bend where the road crosses the Fox River. It might be that an extremely high storm-driven tide flooded this location, poisoning the soil with salt, killing off the Lupines. This has happened to one of our favorite Lupine covered areas behind the barrier beach at Advocate. A high storm tide "erased" the Lupines.
Taken with a Nikon F3HP, Nikkor-H 85mm f/1.8 lens, fitted with an Iscorama Anamorphic lens (1968 version). Kodachrome 64 slide copied with a Nikon D3500, 55mm f/3.5 Micro-Nikkor, Nikon 4T close-up lens and a Sigma 1.6x close-up lens. Lighting was provided by a 5000K LED bulb.
