Nova Scotia: The Lighthouse Route and the Annapolis Valley

One of the most beautiful regions in North America is here portrayed by one of its leading artists of the camera. Sherman Hines presents the lover of Nova Scotia with a photographic journey round the South Shore of the province, along the Lighthouse Route, to the Annapolis Valley. It unfolds in a succession of timeless images: the wooden fishing villages, old lighthouses, beaches, and tide pools of the Shore giving way to the pastoral beauties of the Valley, its orchards and farms interspersed with mementos of a colourful historic past. This glowing panorama of seasons and places is brilliantly accentred - sometimes in microscopic detail, sometimes in breathtaking landscapes - with the province's flowers. Bringing to the journey an artist's eye and a Nova Scotian's delight in his beautiful province, Sherman Hines makes one want to retrace it again and again.
