Whenever you need to take a ferry across to an island, see if you can arrange for weather like that on September 27, 2021 out of Black’s Harbour, New Brunswick. This was autumn at its very finest: rich blue skies, fresh sea air with a hint of the cold yet to come and a positivity impossible to ignore. It felt like each time I raised the camera, there was a postcard waiting to be taken.
It’s one thing to be sightseeing, and quite another for those 2,000 on Grand Manan Island who depend on the ferry for connection to the mainland. Perhaps it was only the tourists on the deck in the sunshine, but on days like this, it’s got to be a good ride for anyone, no matter how routine the crossing.
