Quebec Month / Installment 12
Driving a couple of hours north of Quebec City in the beautiful Charlevoix region, we came across this bright red tractor along a scenic stretch of the St. Lawrence coast. Farm tractors are rarely situated this close to a shore line, so its rustic charm beckoned the camera.
It looks out of place doesn’t it? Great image 🙂
We did this drive in 2005 and loved the entire area. Your photos bring that time back to me, although we did not see any out of place tractors.
I’m sure you had a wonderful time along this gorgeous drive with amazing coastline views. The day we drove through the sky was bright with a low hanging fog so did not get many good shots that did the drive justice.
Great shots! This looks like a Farmall tractor and very similar to one we have in Michigan.
A tractor like this along the beach is like candy. While it’s seen better days, like a Timex watch it seems to keep ticking.

Have a great day Brett!
Oh, very cool! I just looked at the photo you took — quite a nice look and feel being in B&W. Liked your comment about not being sure why there’s a tractor on such a beach — my thought exactly, at the time — but still grateful for the photo op! Thanks also for the link to the GroupExpo and your Mehograph site, both of which I need to explore more. Best, Brett
