A tour of St. Margaret's Bay

I went for a quick spin in the boat with my son yesterday. I wanted to test my new camera - A Canon 40D.

Here are a few shots I took as we rounded the end of Mason's Point looking in various directions.

This is looking across at sheeps head Island - An upscale oceanfront subdivision. One house fetched $825,000 Canadian last fall.

This is a shot looking at Alongside at Mason's Point . - Very popular!

And this of a house currently on the market at $989,000 on the end of Mason's Point.

And to finish it off - A photo of Shining Waters Marine. It has become a destination for visiting yachts and includes a great restaurant over looking the water. I recommend a water tour from Shining Waters. - Or for the more adventurous -Rent a sea kayak and see the area up close!

Just 25 minutes to Halifax -- The St. Margarets Bay communities remain highly attractive now and should Double in value over the next 10 years.

So do you like the camera and would you recommend it? I'm in the market for one!

hi Paul,

Nice tour! It looks like a very beautiful area and I love sailing so really enjoyed seeing all of the sailboats in the region.

I just bought a new Canon too....mine is a PowerShot SX100 IS . I really love it, particularly because it has a 10x Optical Zoom, great for nature photos.

Paul it looks like a great spot...heck anywhere with water looks good to me:)

Liz - The Canon EOS line is great. It really takes great shots. The 40d is a semi-pro camera and really is joy to use - Although it really requires some learning along the way.

You have some great places to sell, if you have any customer looking to move to Fort McMurray, Alberta I would like to help them find a great home here. Patrick Dardis at www.McMurraysBestHomes.com

I visited this area and many others over the summer. Nova Scotia is spectacular with its ocean frontage and so many bays and coves!

Thanks Deborah - I will post more when I make up my mind on some more pressing matters.

Brokers are such a pain!

Nice pictures Paul and VERY NICE home. I took the liberty of editing the picture of the house - if that's ok with you. If not. feel free to just delete my post.

Very nice work, Lazarus Realty on the editting of this exquisite photo of the home on St. Margaret's Bay!!!! I wish I knew how to do that!

Deborah -- Get photoshop or photoshop elements. I just purchased a copy of photoshop. I'll never in my life use all it has to offer but WOW ---can you ever bring life to picture.

Thanks Paul! That's great to know, especially for conditions with poor light, which I encountered quite a bit this summer in the Maritimes!
