It is becoming a tradition for me to visit Cape Enrage every time I travel to Prince Edward Island. Now, when I plan my driving route I include a small detour after visiting Fundy National Park, to swing by the cape.
Cape Enrage offers amazing foggy views on Nova Scotia across the Bay of Fundy and well-maintained lighthouse. But my favorite photo subject of the cape is the beautiful cliffs with the trees and the meadow on top.

Shooting & Processing
It was overcast afternoon so shooting was not an issue. The challenge was to find the opening at the edge of the cliff to set up a tripod. Ater the rain, the tall grass was wet and by the time I found the spot I was completely soaked.
I took 3 bracketed shots on a tripod but used only middle exposure for editing.
I used Lightroom Rapid Editing for Landscapes, applying Natural preset first from Landscape Collection and then used TOOLKIT adjustments.
