Description
Roy captures the character and beauty of St. Andrews, a town alive with history and natural beauty.
Tucked away on a peninsula inside the tranquil waters of Passamaquoddy Bay stands the scenic town of St. Andrews. The natural beauty and picturesque
architecture of the town are unsurpassed in New Brunswick and make it one of Canada's most popular vacation destinations. Rob Roy's photographs are both practical and artistic, blending together the everyday scenes of the town with the striking landscapes and historical character of St. Andrews.
