What's It All About, eh?

Cape Breton evokes deep memories and strong emotions for me as well as a deep appreciation for the beauty of my adopted island. My hopes are that you too might find the photos evocative - maybe a view you've not enjoyed before, or an 'Oh I've been there', or if from away that you may be encouraged to visit this fair isle so that you might come to love and breathe Cape Breton as I do. One word about place names that I use - some are completely local usage while others are from maps of Cape Breton that I've purchased over the years. I frequently post travel and other photos that are of interest to me - and hopefully you.

On the right hand side bar find my take on Single Malt whiskey - from how to best enjoy this noble drink to reviews (in a most non-professional manner) of ones that I have tried and liked - or not. Also musings, mine and others, on life in general.

Photographs are roughly 98%+ my own and copy-righted. For the occasional photo that is borrowed, credit is given where possible - recently I have started posting unusual net photographs that seem unique. Feel free to borrow any of my photos for non-commercial use, otherwise contact me. Starting late in 2013 I have tried to be consistent in identifying my photographs using ©smck on all out of camera photos I personally captured - (I often do minor computer changes such as 'crop' or 'shadow' etc but usually nothing major), and using ©norvellhimself on all photos that I have played around with in case it might not be obvious. Lately I have dropped the ©smck and have watermarked them with the blog name.

Kemp Point 2109 - the old fishing shanties that I visited about 1972 when I stopped to make tea are long gone and even at low tide the waves break across the remaining spit of point

Just A Slow-down Notice - but will pickup again



I am presently in an electronic low access area - so uploading photographs (and even messages) is somewhat iffy - but please don't go away for I am still snapping photographs.

Secondly I am pissed that somebody out there, where you the viewer reside, informed Facebook that this blog is breaking their (facebook's) posting standards - which amazes me completely as I cannot imagine any blog is as 'plain-vanilla' as this one - I enjoy blogs of this nature and evidentially most of you guys and girls around the world do also, so who ever you were, instead of blasting me in the back with such a complaint why don't you comment directly to me what you found so upsetting to you about 'Single-malt, Cape Breton, NorvellHimself" .   If you do so I would be able to defend myself, or address the 'offence' that you would tell me about. So how about it - leave a comment at the bottom of this post.
