Description
My favourite time of year to go home to Nova Scotia, when the autumn storms bring beautiful sky and seascapes, the Atlantic ocean crashes against the ancient granite rocks of Peggy's Cove headland and the iconic lighthouse stands guard against the gales. October 2006
A little about me:
My name is Janet but I go by Jann, and I am originally from Ontario, Canada and have lived on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, since 1985.
I love the seacoast and mountains, so many of my photos are from British Columbia, Alberta, Vancouver Island, Nova Scotia, Cape Breton Island. My main photo themes are sea, coastal,villages, mountains, trees, lakes, waterfalls, flowers, nature,wildlife, birds, animals, landscapes, sunsets, and the great National Parks of Canada such as Jasper,Banff, Waterton, Cape Breton Highlands, Yoho, Glacier, Kootenay,Mt. Robson, Strathcona and others.

In the art world, I was initially trained as a Commercial Artist and Illustrator and eventually explored many other methods of art/style as well as other mediums. I work in pencil, ink, acrylics, watercolor and oil pastels. I have also enjoyed mosaic design and application, floor murals, wall murals, collapsible screens, floor cloths, graphic design. Explored sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, hand painted furniture, refinishing old frames with gold leaf or faux finishes, interior design and interior decorating.
��������������..
With the advent of digital cameras I came to really enjoy photography both as an artistic expression as well as a foundation for capturing interesting and exciting compositions to be painted later.

My recent creative endeavour was graduating from a certified Cosmetology Program (hairstylist and esthetics) in March 2009.

Janet Ashworth replied:
Many thanks Brian. I first went to Peggy's in 2005 with my friend, and fell in love with it, and the whole province. Been back several times since, but it's a long haul from Vancouver Island, as you know!

Janet, I just paid a surpise visit to 25 of your wonderful images from the Wisconsin Flowers and Scenery group, I fav and voted on all 30 of the images I reviewed and I will definately be back to see the rest of your work some great pieces in here. But this was my favorite, the clarity in this photo is amazing, and the action is breathtaking along with all of the great details from the foreground to the background. Love the white water jumping up and crashing into the rocks in the foreground and in the background by the lighthouse. Great sky shot and awesome depth to this photo. Fantastic photo, fav, voted, google and tweet promoted
