Finally a few pictures of Cape Spear, with its two lighthouses on the "Easternmost point of the North American continent".

And the "new" lighthouse of 1955. |

A view up the bluffs towards the lighthouses. |

The Cape Spear sign. |

Boys playing where they shouldn't, as usual. (Another sign indicated that quite a few lives have been lost off these rocks.) |

Wildflowers by the walkway. |

|
All the lighthouse buildings. |

A distant view of the harbor entrance to St. John's, with Signal Hill and the Cabot tower to the right. |

These pictures were taken with a Canon EOS 10D digital camera. Images were cropped, balanced, etc. with Adobe Photoshop Elements.
