Patrick Keefe of Meadowbank was named runner-up in the iconic landscape category in a Canadian Geographic photo competition.
His picture of a dramatic cloudscape over Confederation Bridge was taken on the beach near his family cottage, just after the weather had prompted them to give up on the idea of going for a swim. "[We] could see some clouds rolling in from across the strait. And the wind kind of picked up and it gave the feel that maybe there was some impending storm coming our way," said Keefe.
"We decided to abandon the swim, I ran back to the cottage and grabbed my camera and took a few shots, and later when I got back home and had a look on the computer it turned out that I had a few really nice images from that day." The photo was published in Canadian Geographic Magazine. The prize included some new camera equipment.
