Will do. I have some photos of the nearby fishing weirs constructed by the Acadians in the 1700's that still survive. I need another trip down the bay to photograph the huge fossil finds near Parrsboro and Joggins. The 50 foot tide changes are exposing more fossils almost daily. Got my hat ready.

You just have to respect (and know) the tide. At low tide, you "walk on the floor of the bay" but when they tide come in, it can do so at a rate of almost 10 feet per hour. Waders might not cut it.
Here's and interesting article on the Joggins Cliffs:

Across the Bay from us, the incoming tide meeting the outgoing tide creates waves large enough that companies provide the equivalent of white water rafting on the "Tidal Bore".

I kinda don't like the brown of the water. If I were you I'd work in black and white (maybe sunset will do wonders with the brown though, I dunno).
